Calling all guys and ghouls...walk, crawl or ooze your way this weekend to Arlington, Texas. Whether you seek a haunted ballpark tour, a thrilling coaster or a festive family bash, you'll find the perfect place to get your spook on:

  • Six Flags Over Texas Fright Fest - We keep hearing that 2015 is “the scariest one yet” by longtime park employees, and we’ve seen it. This year, there’s more ghouls, goblins and terrifying scenes for the most willing of audiences. For the little ones—expect fun stuff during the day: Looney Tunes SPOOKY TOWN, Scary-Oke, the Six Flags Spooktacular Street Party (a musical yet zombified salute to the King of Pop) and costume catwalk. And we’ve heard that some have been told to leave their children under 12 at home once the sun goes down. In its final weekend, expect all the stops pulled out from under you like a trap door. Be prepared to scream, run and have the spookiest time in the southwest! Get your tickets here.

 

  • Ripley’s Nightmare at the Wax Museum - Also in its final weekend, Ripley’s Nightmare at the Wax museum takes the scariest characters from your favorite horror films and puts them in one place—a nightmarish wax museum. Ah! But the scariest thing is, they’re not just wax this time, they’re very much alive and bloodthirsty. Unleash your Hallo-scream with Jason, Leatherface, killer clowns and more. For an extra bit of horror, check out the Mirror Maze that is haunted with characters from your worst nightmares! Take a look at my experience behind the scenes at Nightmare at the Wax Museum.
