Noah’s Ark will undergo a chilling transformation and leave you looking over your shoulder at every turn. Beginning October 3rd, guests will have the unique opportunity to experience Ark in the Dark. From 12:00-1:00 a.m., the lights go out and something sinister takes over.

Tickets can be purchased online here for $10 per person or $13 for two. Ark in the Dark will have a limit of only 13 pairs of brave souls each evening.

In addition, 17 Kennywood thrill rides will be transformed into a sinister alter ego, and the rest of the park will be covered with 1,000 gallons of fog fluid, 10,000 plus Halloween lights, and more than 300 ghouls, vampires and other creatures of the night!
