Survival Tips

Arrive Early

Gates open at 10am. Experience rides before the scare attractions build up queues.

Dress Warm

Wear comfortable shoes and warm layers. October evenings get cold.

Stay Late

The atmosphere peaks after dark. The event feels strongest once the park is fully lit.

Queues Close at 9

Queue lines close at 9PM, not the attraction itself. Join before 9 and you can still experience it.
