  • Nine live entertainment experiences

  • Nighttime rides in the dark

  • Expanded interactive lantern experiences

Returning Horror Franchise Attractions:

The Conjuring Universe (All-New Maze Experience)

Based on the iconic horror franchise: enter the Warrens' occult museum where their most terrifying cases await. Face Annabelle's malevolent stare, flee from The Nun's unholy presence, and survive the Perron farmhouse's demonic forces. Each cursed artifact awakens ancient evil. Tonight, you're not just observing their cases; you've become part of them.

SAW: Legacy of Terror

Welcome to the ultimate trial of survival in SAW: LEGACY OF TERROR. Plunge into the depths of Jigsaw's twisted mind as you traverse iconic scenes inspired by the SAW films. Think you can escape some of John Kramer's most diabolical contraptions before time runs out?

New Scare Zones for 2026:

Cirkus Bezerkus: Big Top Terror

Guests step into a faded golden-age circus where carnival games line the path, sideshow performers lure guests closer and sinister clowns stalk the crowds from the shadows. Once a celebrated traveling spectacle, this circus is now desperate for an audience once again. Guests who wander beneath the big top may discover they've become part of the show in this macabre new nightmare. 

Alley of the Dead

These streets used to be beautiful. Today, they belong to the dead. Years ago, a corrupt corporation dumped toxic waste into the alley, leaving it to decay beneath flickering neon lights and glowing barrels of ooze. Its inhabitants became zombie punks and alley-dwelling creatures who now rule the darkness. This alley changes all who enter.

Returning Haunted Attractions and Scare Zones

In addition to the iconic horror franchises, guests will encounter original nightmares and returning fan favorites throughout the park, creating a fully immersive Halloween environment around every corner.

Expanded Interactive Lantern Experience

Returning by popular demand, Fiesta Texas' interactive lantern program returns larger than ever with more than 25 interaction points throughout the park. Using specialty lanterns, guests can trigger hidden effects, awaken lurking monsters and unlock immersive surprises woven directly into the Fright Fest experience.

Nighttime Thrills

As darkness falls, the park's world-class roller coasters and thrill rides take on an entirely different personality. Dense fog, dramatic lighting, haunting soundscapes and the darkness of the Texas night transform favorite attractions into unforgettable Halloween experiences.
