(VAUGHAN, ON) – The spookiest season of the year descends upon Canada’s Wonderland this weekend with the opening of Halloween Haunt on Sept. 24 and Camp Spooky for the kids on Sept. 25. Both events run select dates until Oct. 31 and this year will feature new, immersive outdoor experiences and entertainment for thrill-seekers and families alike.
Halloween Haunt
Now in its 16th season, Haunt returns to Canada’s Wonderland on Friday, Sept. 24 transforming the theme park into a scream park filled with thrilling attractions, unspeakable horror and amazing night rides. Due to Covid-19, indoor mazes have been transformed into new outdoor experiences throughout the park…. leaving guests fewer places to hide!
For 2021 Haunt features more live entertainment than ever, with four terrifying shows (Inferno, Skeleton Crew, Freak Show and the Illusionist), a Vampire Disco, roaming performers and live bands. Hundreds of monsters will prowl 10 scare zones, including three new areas.
New Haunt attractions include:
• The Skeleton Crew (Live Show): Freshly dead and returned to us from the underworld, The Skeleton Crew brings their humour and horror to Haunt with electrifying acrobatics, trampoline antics and daring feats of athleticism.
• Inferno (Live Show): From the fiery depths of hell comes Inferno, the hottest live show at Halloween Haunt. Watch our fire demons possess (er…captivate) the audience with stunning fire tricks, balancing acts and more.
• The Farmstead (Scare Zone): The haunted horrors of an abandoned slaughterhouse have taken over a nearby farm, where terrible ends await those who dare journey through the dark fields and rusty machinery.
• Kingdom of Carnage (Scare Zone): You find yourself in the middle of a brutal, bloody siege upon a castle ruled by a wicked king. Just as the advancing villagers gain ground, an evil terror is unleashed, threatening to consume everyone and everything in its path.
• Streets of the Undead (Scare Zone): The zombie apocalypse has arrived and the few remaining survivors are desperate to make it through to the Safe Zone. But the undead are closing in on all sides, hungry for human flesh…
Halloween Haunt runs select nights Sept. 24 to Oct. 31 from 7 p.m. to midnight. Admission is included with a GOLD pass and reservations are required for all guests.
