Dive into the Darkness at Halloween Horror Nights

At the bloodthirsty heart of Halloween Horror Nights are the spine-tingling houses, themed in line with the most macabre and hair-raising moments from cult horror films and spooky TV shows. With 10 horrifying houses to survive, only the strongest and most fearless souls will emerge unscathed. 



And just when you think you’ve emerged from the depths of the paranormal, having braved the supernatural houses, beware of the unsuspecting menace that awaits you in the Scare Zones. You better watch your back on the streets as you venture into Scare Zones designed to send you into a harrowing tale of terror with immersive props, sets, and actors so uncanny, they’ll leave you trembling with dread. 

Think the scares end there? Not on your afterlife. Indulge in the electrifying thrill of live entertainment, show-stopping performances, and creepy music for a night filled with devilish delights. Then, scream your heart out as you take a chilling ride on selected attractions, and satisfy your dark cravings with culinary concoctions and drinks for a night that will haunt your memories eternally.
