San Diego's largest nighttime Halloween event offers the only full night of fear. Featuring haunts, thrills, shows, coasters, speakeasies, food, and more!



Howl-O-Scream San Diego – The Fear Reawakens

More SCARES per square foot than ever before!

Howl-O-Scream arrives on September 27 to transform the once peaceful SeaWorld San Diego into a sinister, spine-chilling playground of terror. As night falls, a carnival of horrifying creatures surrounds you.

Evade FIVE angry haunts through SEVEN scare zones and SIX vile vignettes. Seek shelter indoors, only to find you've entered a house of horrors. Quench your thirst for fear with fiendishly delicious cocktails, beer, and spirits at SIX themed bars and speakeasies. Feel the monstrous electricity of our NEW live show. Dance the night away and deepen the thrills with a nighttime coaster ride.

Above all, try to resist the eyes of evil that threaten to follow you everywhere.

Face your fears during SeaWorld San Diego's Howl-O-Scream this fall.
