Scare Zones

Scare Zones return again with frightful surprises including newbie The Gauntlet which brings Game of Thrones vibes with a horror twist in Camp Snoopy; Gore-ing 20’s with the decadence and debauchery of a bygone area near Charleston Circle, Forsaken Lake with swampy unearthly undead near Silver Bullet, CarnEVIL with clowns and carnie creeps on the Boardwalk, and, of course, the Ghost Town Streets with treacherous old western scares screaming back to life.

Entertainment

There’s several opportunities to howl with laughter or just let yourself get a breather with fun new shows for this year including The Hanging: The Errors Tour pop-culture stuntacular and Yours Cruelly, Elvira Xxperience retrospective walk-through plus the return of Le Magnifique Carnaval du Grotesque carnival extravaganza and Conjurers magic shows.

More to Explore

If the mazes, scare zones, and entertainment aren’t enough to keep you satisfied there’s a bunch of other activities and offerings you can enjoy during the event including the Into the Fog: Tribute Art Show at The Factory Store where you can find a gorgeous work of art at this Knott’s Scary Farm Tribute Art Show.

Plus, aside from several of the park’s regular attractions in operation you can also enjoy select coasters such as Silver Bullet and Ghostrider in the dark!

There’s also seasonal overlays available on two popular attractions. At the Timber Mountain Log Ride, the classic Knott’s hallmark attraction gets a zany Halloween Hootenanny takeover with an insane assortment of monsters, aliens, and other creatures — both scary and silly. Or, venture over to the Calico Mines where the The Pink Fairy has transformed the iconic peak into a fantastical big rock candy mountain giving the classic attraction an update to satisfy every sweet tooth — just be careful of those popping rocks!
