Six Flags just handed the keys to its parks over to horror. Jason Voorhees is stalking the woods this fall, and he’s got company. If you’ve done a haunted house before, get ready to rethink what that even means this year.
Here’s the scope: 11 new haunted mazes are opening across six different Halloween events this year. Every one comes from a horror name you already know, from slasher movies to survival-horror games to cult classics. Six Flags is betting you’ll show up for Diablo, Friday the 13th and Blair Witch, even if haunted houses aren’t usually your thing.
The Scale Of Six Flags’ 2026 Halloween Push
Six Flags is calling this its biggest Halloween lineup yet, and the numbers back it up. You’re looking at 29 new and returning licensed mazes, part of 448 total Halloween-themed experiences across the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Six Flags isn’t shy about leaning on that franchise crossover appeal to pull it off.
New Mazes Joining The 2026 Lineup
Here are the four brand-new mazes headlining this year’s expansion. Each one hands you a different corner of horror:
- Jason: Blood Reign: You’ll walk the woods around the legendary summer camp. Retrace the killings that made Jason Voorhees horror’s most famous slasher. Find it at SCarowinds, Kings Island’s Halloween Haunt and Six Flags Great Adventure’s Fright Fest, courtesy of Jason Universe.
- Final Destination: Death’s Playground: A premonition warns you about disasters seconds before they strike. Find it at Six Flags Great Adventure and Six Flags Magic Mountain, both part of Fright Fest.
- Blair Witch: No Signal: The Black Hills Forest, the Rustin Parr House and total darkness recreate the found-footage classic. You can catch it at Six Flags Great America’s Fright Fest and Dorney Park’s Halloween Haunt.
- Diablo: The Infernal Path: You’ll face off with Diablo, Lilith, Mephisto and Baal. The gothic world comes straight from Blizzard’s game franchise. Find it at Kings Dominion’s Halloween Haunt and Cedar Point’s HalloWeekends.
If none of those grab you, the returning favorites round out the roster. Look for The Conjuring Universe, SAW: Legacy of Terror, The Strangers: No Escape, Trick ‘r Treat and Army of the Dead.
If jump scares aren’t your thing, most parks still run daytime trick-or-treating and fall festivals before the mazes open after dark. And if this year’s lineup has you thinking ahead, Six Flags’ lowest-priced 2027 season passes go off sale Sept. 7, 2026. It’s worth grabbing one before the price climbs.
