Illinois’ Scariest Halloween Event: Fright Fest Opens In September
Six Flags will be covered with all sorts of entertainment starting September 13th:
- Scare Zones
All throughout the park, you're never safe. When you think you've got it all figured out, a demented performer will leap out of the fog and get you.
- Haunted Mazes
Pitch-black hallways, eerie sounds, and spine-chilling surprises waiting for you in the dark. Think you have what it takes?
- Halloween-themed live shows
If you're more into shows than scares, there will be tons of live shows like Wake the Dead and The Ringmaster's Revenge that gives "music, scares, and pure Halloween magic" all in one. Gives you a chance to breathe!
- Rollercoasters, including Wrath of Rakshasa
What's Six Flags without the coasters?! The new ride is open, Wrath of Rakshasa! After dark, I can't imagine what it's like to get on this thing. Terrifying.
