Six Flags Great America will remain open for part of the fall, and in a few weeks, the experience will be markedly different. Six Flags is gearing up for its season horror party, the amusement park’s scariest time of the year.
of the year line-up aims to fill the thrill with five haunted houses, nine scare zones and fresh scary themes – plus three new haunted house experiences. The new haunted houses are inspired by themes from the well-known horror series “Texas Chainsaw Massacre”, “Stranger Things” and “Saw”.
