Opening SCAREmony
This completely reimagined stage show opens the event with a frightening master of ceremonies summoning nightmarish creatures and preparing guests for their night of screams, scares, and terror.
Haunted Houses
New!
Circus of the Damned
See your fears come to life like never before! Brave ALL-NEW immersive terror and navigate lifelike 3D elements with special 3D glasses to escape an evil ringmaster seeking to restore his cursed Circus of the Damned to its former glory. Avoid his condemned crew and escape the big top before you’re forced to join them!
Fan Favorite! Simon's Slaughterhouse
This fan-favorite haunted house will have you screaming around every corner as you navigate through the bloody corridors, meat-hooked mortals, and screeching buzz saws of the meat processing plant to avoid the butcher’s blades.
More Screams! Area 64: Alien Outbreak
Darkness and decay set the stage after you sneak through the fence and enter Area 64: Alien Outbreak. Evade lethal security, mad scientists, and terrifying extraterrestrials who refuse to be contained.
More Screams! Nightmare Experiment
You are the subject of a secret, experimental project run amok. Find safety before The Doctor finds you.
More Screams!
Death Water Bayou
Escape the black, murky waters of your nightmares only to fall under the curse of the evil Swamp Witch.
Scare Zones
Clown Gauntlet
The merciless clowns have been banished by the ringmaster and are looking for victims to start their own maniacal circus. Chainsaws in hand, the clowns audition those they deem worthy, and terrify those who don’t quite make the “cut”.
Carnival of Chaos
If you survive Circus of the Damned, press your luck in the Carnival of Chaos. Beware the disgruntled carnies and sideshow clowns that haunt the midway, and specialty performers who’d kill to make it to the big time.
Deadly Toys
These aren’t like the dolls you grew up with. Playtime starts now, and it’s not over until they’ve had their fun.
Graveyard
There are evils that can’t stay buried forever. Some of this cemetery’s long-term guests are dying to meet you.
Sea of Souls
Their allure is powerful. Their motives are terrifying. Steer clear…this is one call you don’t want to answer.
Live Entertainment
Call of the Siren
Don’t fall victim to the powerful allure of the sirens during this wickedly mesmerizing hip hop dance performance.
Vile Vignettes
New! Misfortune
Want to know what the future has in store? Step into this fortune teller’s tent if you’re brave enough, but you might not like what they hear as she spins tales of woe and anguish.
New! All Hallow’s Harvest
Beware the cornfields at Howl-O-Scream, evil lurks within! Walk the path if you dare, but the scarecrows are waiting to take their revenge.
New! Dark Magic
What could be more fitting than a sadistic magician within the Carnival of Chaos? Join the not so traditional magic show and explore Dark Magic all night long.
New! Call from Beyond
Be careful when you encounter this mad scientist conducting dangerous experiments. You might end up as his next test subject!
New! Simon’s Meat Market
On the way to Simon’s Slaughterhouse, you’ll find a crooked auctioneer wielding what’s left of Simon’s latest victims. Are you next?
Howl-O-Scream
Rides in the Dark
It wouldn’t be a SeaWorld visit without a ride or two, but it wouldn’t be Howl-O-Scream without a dose of nighttime terror. Brave the ALL-NEW Arctic Rescue, Electric Eel, or Emperor in the DARK!
