AUSTELL, Ga. — It's the most wonderful time for fear! Six Flags Over Georgia is celebrating 30 chilling years of its annual Fright Fest, which features haunted houses, spooky live shows and nighttime roller coaster rides.
It starts on September 14 and ends on November 3. The 20-day event promises a scary, good time and something for people of all ages.
“As we celebrate 30 years of spine-chilling thrills, we’re excited to present an expansive lineup of immersive haunted experiences, including mazes inspired by two iconic horror brands, which will leave guests screaming for more," said General Manager Greg Fuller.
This year, in addition to Fright Fest, the park will bring back its family-friendly daytime fall festival, Kids Boo Fest, as well as an Oktoberfest food and beverage festival on weekends.
Park officials said they have "reimagined" one of their haunted houses for the milestone year and added a new live show to their Fright Fest lineup.
Here's a complete list of the park's new and returning attractions, events and shows:
New attractions, events and shows
- The SAW Franchise: Celebrate the 20th anniversary of SAW by plunging into the depths of Jigsaw’s twisted mind. Guests will endure torturous trials and face some of John Kramer’s most diabolical contraptions before time runs out.
- Stranger Things: The students of Hawkins High decide to team up to create a bit of innocent Halloween fun for their community – but things quickly turn upside down and morph into something far darker
- Camp Slasher: Set in the eerie confines of Camp Rainburn—a deceptively idyllic summer camp—Camp Slasher is not just a maze; it’s a full-blown 80s slasher experience that will push fear to its limits.
- Crimson Vein: Experience a harrowing descent into a post-apocalyptic nightmare, where the world as you know it has been irrevocably shattered. In this forsaken future, the ravages of nuclear war have left the earth a desolate wasteland ruled by a group of feral, radiation-plagued vampires driven by an insatiable thirst for human blood.
