Howl O Scream Highlights

Haunted Houses

ALL-NEW! Lost Mines: The Descent

Journey into the depths of an underground gem mine, where an ancient community of human origins safeguards their treasures. This mutated society has evolved with supernatural attributes – eerie skin, dagger-like claws, and ghastly sores – that serve as their twisted disguise.

As you delve further, you’ll experience their grim desire for both sparkly things and the flesh of trespassers daring to navigate their abandoned domain.

Due to frightening elements, this attraction is not for kids.

REVAMPED! Death Water Bayou: Full Moon

Enticed by unseen creatures, many diabolical supporters venture deeper into the bayou, where this swamp resides as a mysterious bridge between the real world and the beyond. As death’s flame casts its shadow, the Voodoo Queen seeks her next victim.

REVAMPED! Nevermore: Chapter 3

The pages are once again flipping open to reveal a new chapter in the Nevermore saga. Stories of agony and fright come to life as Poe’s poignant words resurface, now drenched in blood and infused with an even more sinister reality. Will your wits and courage be enough to guide you through this terrifying epilogue and guarantee your survival?
