There is #NothingScarier than Six Flags Over Georgia’s 23 spine-chilling haunted attractions awaiting those who dare to enter the largest Fright Fest® event in park history. The annual ghostly experience boasts nearly 400 zombies and monsters lurking in the dark of night through 11 all-new creepy scare zones, five petrifying mazes and seven terrifying shows.

“Our guests told us they would like us to turn up the scare factor during Fright Fest and we are delivering with an incredible lineup of chills and thrills,” said Six Flags Atlanta Properties Park President Dale Kaetzel. “We are confident this year’s Fright Fest will be one to remember and the number one Halloween attraction in Atlanta.”

In 2015, the #NothingScarier Fright Fest will feature more than a dozen all-new themed attractions, including: 

 

  • The Mourning, a scare zone at the front of the park, where the dead walk and vultures feast;
  • Southern Cemetery, a scare zone, where evil spirits awaken the dead and offer the chance to indulge in one of Miss Dixie’s all-new Evil Spirited drinks;
  • Big Top Terror, a scare zone, with clowns of all shapes and sizes, along with sinister laughs in the all-new Curtain Chaos Maze and Tunnel of Blood;
  • Dr. Fright’s Frightorium 3-D, a haunted indoor maze, where an evil doctor is experimenting on his patients, trying to bring his wife and daughter back from the dead;
  • Bayou Bloodlust, a haunted outdoor maze through a swamp infested with evil voodoo priestess and her army of zombies and horrid creatures;
  • Miss Dixie’s Awakening, a new live show inside of Miss Dixie’s Evil Spirits with drinks, music and dead entertainment;
  • Fear Riders, a scare zone, featuring an infectious group of vampire bikers who can’t wait to sink their fangs into those who stand in their roadway; and
  • Fright Faced, a new interactive scare zone where park guests can take photos with the zombies, monsters and other scare actors lurking in their path, and get frightened by other attractions.
