A family-friendly theme and water park by day—beware, the fright comes out at night. Popular with teens, Wild Waves’ Fright Fest has multiple terror-inducing attractions. 

The “Chamber of Souls” serves as a traditional haunted house. Make your way through ghouls, corpses, and a zombie outbreak. Then head to “Camp Whispering Pines,” a trail where tortured camp counselors and slaughtered campers abound. The “Voodoo Swamp” is a shadowy bog full of creepy crawlers and curses. The first two come with admission, but the swamp costs an extra five bucks. 

To reduce wait times, a VIP pass includes a separate line, the three haunted attractions, plus four thrill rides. Rollercoaster after, anyone? For those under 13 (or anyone who wants fun without fear), there’s “Booville,” a kid-friendly, scare-free area with games, a magic show, and a Halloween costume contest. Tip: Plan to carpool due to paid parking.
