Fright Fest Now In Full Swing at Six Flags Great Adventure! Thrills By Day- Frights By Night!
It is that time of year again! For our family it’s one of our favorite times of year- Halloween time! We have been a Halloween family forever. I love everything about Halloween, from pumpkin carving to apple picking to Trick or Treating. As soon as September hits we start to take advantage of everything Halloween experience we can find. Of course that always includes one of our favorite places, Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, NJ. Six Flags hosts Fright Fest on weekends throughout Halloween. It’s a great place to take the kids or go with your friends.
One of my favorite things about Six Flags is that you can choose your scare level. Thrills by Day- Frights by Night! It’s scare free and great for little kids during the day. You have from the park opening until 6pm to enjoy a scare free experience. It’s also a great time to ride all the rides. There is a Trick- or- treat trail where the kids can meet their favorite characters and then munch on some treats and there are also some Halloween themed shows. If you can only visit during the day it’s still worth it to go. The kids will love it!
If scares is your thing then you definitely want to go during the day and stay until late into the night. At 6pm the park goes from scare free to pure scare. It all starts with The Awakening where you can get a glimpse of all the ghouls that will be creeping through the park all night long. I always get the best of both worlds since I spend the day scare free with my daughter all day and then go into total BoyMom mode all night having fun being scared! Whichever is your choice, don’t miss out on Six Flags this Halloween season.
- Lady of the Lake Cemetery (Loved it!!!) Great Adventures folklore inspired the newest scare zone, which will surely bring a chill to every guest. Guinevere, a drowned bride cursed by the Jersey Devil, has haunted Jacksons Great Lake for more than a hundred years. Guests can try to spot her spirit in the flowing, white dress as they walk through the mist and monster-filled graveyard.
- Aftermath (Scary!lol) A post-apocalyptic world becomes a reality as guests try to survive this twisting haunted maze crawling with barbaric, mutant scavengers. This raw experience of a global catastrophe makes nightmares come true. Extra fee required to participate.
- Wicked Woods (FUN!!) Fables and folklore from the dark and haunted forests aren’t just for story time anymore. Evil creatures come to life under the creaky and gnarled branches as guests try to escape the night shadows. Extra fee required to participate.
- Unleashed(Good) Guests will be spellbound by this new theatrical production featuring incredible acrobatics, dance, music and feats of magic premiering in Showcase Theatre.
- Corvyx(Worth Stopping by) Alternative electronic pop artist Corvyx is taking YouTube by storm through a combination of haunting covers, visually stunning videos and original music. Armed with a wicked style and powerhouse voice, Corvyx will rock Fright Fest during his residency near the new Wicked Brew bar on Friday and Saturday nights.
- Ignite A hypnotizing and dazzling display of fire spinning and illusion will have guests glued to the pavement watching every heart-stopping trick. This performance, located next to the Bumper Cars in Adventure Alley, will really see if guests can take the heat.
There’s also a bunch of Halloween themed foods and drinks. You definitely want to check these out. We never miss the funnel cake and the hot cocoa with a floating ghost Peeps on top! There are other foods as well that are pretty darn good!
