The 2011 Halloween Event Superthread!


Recommended Posts

It's that time of year again! Halloween season has kicked into full gear for most of the theme parks around the world! Since, a lot of people here on Theme Park Review are huge haunt fans as well as theme park fans, I figured we can have one thread where everyone shares what events they have been to and which ones they are going to. I will also keep an updated list of websites below to each park's individual haunt event for your use in decided which park(s) to attend this October! If you know of an event that is left off the list below, post in this thread and I will update the list! Finally, if you post a Trip Report on the forums, I will link it here as well!

How can you forget the Old Town Haunt?!?! Only the highest quality!

 

This is only for seasonal events, Garbels. Old Town is scary year round!

 

And for those suggesting haunts that are not at theme parks, feel free to post them in this thread: Favorite Standalone Haunts. We will keep the focus of this thread on theme parks.

The Empty Grave at the Anaheim Gardenwalk

I'm actually a scare actor here, TPR members come visit me!!!

I keep hearing about this place and I live about an hour away. I've already been to Knott's this year so maybe ill be able to come out and visit and check out the maze .

Quick question:

 

I'm supposed to be flying out to CT on November 1st, but just saw that Lake Compounce is open on Halloween Night for their Haunted Graveyard.

 

Still trying to work out the details, but I may be able to swing it.

 

Obviously the big draw for me is Boulder Dash ... The Halloween stuff is cool I guess, but by that time I may be Haunted out. Would it be worth it to me to get less rides on Boulder Dash and do the Haunt stuff, or should I just get the rides pass and enjoy my night riding?

 

Also, anybody know what time they close? It doesn't show on their site.

Gregg - The Haunted Graveyard is worth missing a couple of rides on Boulder Dash to experience, and I love boulder Dash at night. It is a 45 minutes walk through (indoors and outdoors). The decoration and scare actors are top notch. You have to purchase a ticket for a particular time as the park manages crowds so groups are not right on top of each other, it is not a conga line.

 

The calendar on the website makes it appear the 31st has the same hours as Sundays, closing at 10PM.

Was pretty tame - they reckon they've amped it up this year to be on par with USH-HHN and Knott's Scary Farm sort of level but its well off.

EXCITEMENT! I'm going to Phoenix Phall Phunfest by any means necessary!

 

Not going to wear that tuxedo though, I don't want to ruin it.

Cool, thanks Larry.

 

Still trying to work out the logistics of flying out a day early.

 

Thought about adding yet another day and doing SFNE on Sunday, but I have a 1/2 Marathon that morning. Don't really want to go from running 13.1 miles then straight to the airport. My fellow passengers may not like me too much.

Just updated the first post with a lot more parks. Thanks for all of your suggestions so far, we now have events from 24 states and 10 countries!

 

Also, don't forget to let us know which parks you are going to this weekend or later on this month!

So far I have been to Halloweekends at Cedar Point and for the first time this past weekend, 'The Haunt' at Kings Island. I must say I was very impressed with it and prefer it over CP's event. This coming weekend we will going up to Canada's Wonderland for the first time ever to the park. We did not make it down to HHN this year, so we are trying to make it up at other places a bit closer to us. Looking forward to it! Best time of the year by far.

I went to HHN Orlando last weekend and am doing HOS during Busch Gardens Bash next weekend. Horror Nights was an overall fun night even though I felt like the event was weaker than usual (about the same as last year). I may try to hit some local non park haunts this weekend with a slight possibility of maybe trying to do Phobia at Wild Adventures.

 

Really looking forward to HOS next weekend, for the past 3 years I always seem to have more fun at HOS than HHN. The events are somewhat similar while still being very different. Night rides on Kumba make any event an epic success.
