Terror Lurks At Kings Dominion’s Halloween Haunt

Three gruesome new experiences will debut at Halloween Haunt this weekend as Kings Dominion begins it’s 17th season.

The new maze, Blood on the Bayou is themed after a haunted bayou where the swamps once ran red with blood, with whispers of curses and unnamed voodoo priests. Guests will wind their way through a swamp, past a half-sunken ship where the evil that lies in wait hungers for new visitors.

In addition, two new shows will debut this week. The Grave Walkers allows guests to take a stroll with twisted interactive street performers as they bring the best of the French Quarter to the Commonwealth. Listen for the blare of an approaching trumpet or the blast of a tuba as they take to the streets with a Halloween party like no other. The Coven is a roaming performance featuring a troupe of witches who are wreaking havoc on the midways with their bizarre rituals. Beware because they are looking for their next victim as they prepare for the coming solstice.

In total, those who dare can brave eight mazes, five scare zones and a variety of live shows during Halloween Haunt, which features the largest scare force in the region with hundreds of monsters roaming the midways. During the nighttime event, guests can also get their adrenaline fix on more than 20 rides, including Intimidator™ 305 and Dominator, as fog and darkness blanket the park. For daytime Halloween fun with no fear, The Great Pumpkin Fest in Planet Snoopy features surprises around every corner, from a petting zoo to a pumpkin painting patch. The little ones can even take part in educational and interactive shows such as Mad Science: Halloween Edition. The Great Pumpkin Fest runs 12 p.m. to 5 p.m Saturdays and Sundays during Halloween Haunt.
