I always love returning to the fog each year. Knott’s Scary Farm is the oldest operating haunt at a theme park and has long been a staple during the Haunt / Halloween season.
With two new mazes added to this year’s line-up, and a whole slew of shows, there’s definitely a lot for attendees to enjoy. Here’s a look at this year’s must-see attractions.
Kicking off my visit with new Maze Bloodline, which was fantastic…
BLOODLINE 1842 – NEW MAZE
“Armed with the latest Bellatorian weaponry, you can choose to heed the call to action and embark on a perilous journey with the immortal Daybreakers. Travel through the busy city streets of Valdonia while hunting the bloodthirsty Valhymphri in an all-out war. Bring light into the darkness, survive the vicious onslaught of vampires, and bring honor to your order!”
Also the new Maze Grimoire, was probably my favorite maze of the evening. I always appreciate an immersive haunt.
THE GRIMOIRE – NEW MAZE
“Turn the page and enter the world of an ancient relic whose dark stories exist purely to turn your greatest nightmares into a reality. Try to escape the horror of the evil creatures released by the mysterious book, or have your soul eternally trapped within the pages of the next chapter!”
MESMER: SIDESHOW OF THE MIND – MAZE
“Within the canvas tent lies the secret of the most potent force in the universe: the human mind. Give in and succumb to the hypnotist Mesmer and his sinister sideshow, as it pries on your hidden fears. Release your inner thoughts and descend into a world of madness, torture, and eerie enlightenment in this haunted maze. There you will uncover the grotesque secrets hidden as you brave through the most terrifying show ever created.”
GORE-ING ’20S – NEW SCARE ZONE
“Step back into the dark decadence of a by-gone era as the newest scare zone, The Gore-ing ’20s, terrorizes even the bravest and most brutal souls. Here gangsters run illicit hooch for the ghostly revelers as the otherworldly musicians play the music of the damned. Tell the Bouncer the secret password, and you’ll have the time of your life…for as long as it lasts.”
This was probably my favorite scare zone.
THE DEPTHS – MAZE
“A heavy fog drapes over an abandoned port village where ancient creatures lurk inside the pitch-black underground caves hidden below the seaside shores. The Nightwatch Mining Crew has mysteriously disappeared and village rumors point to the eerie tunnels the town sits upon. Myths of the terrifying horrors that lurk within the cave have often been whispered but never confirmed.
“Did the crew meet their demise at the hand of vicious creatures that live within the cave? Journey into the ominous caverns and follow the crew’s path into The Depths, discover if the superstition revolving around the cave is true or not. But be warned! All who have entered the haunted trails have never resurfaced.”
PUMPKIN EATER – MAZE
“Survive the wrath of the murderous 7-foot tall creature that haunts the old woods surrounding The Hollow in the haunted trail, Pumpkin Eater. The notorious creature is on the prowl hidden within the dark confines of the haunted town he once terrorized. To escape the sinister Pumpkin Eater’s wrath all that enter must go on a quest through the silent town of victims, face a cave of crawling insects and solve the labyrinth of thorns that blocks the way out.”
This is Pumpkin Eater’s last year at Knott’s. This maze was my favorite for a good couple years, so I embraced the pumpkin and took my last stroll.
GHOST TOWN STREETS – SCARE ZONE
“Ghost Town Streets is the original – and still most terrifying scare zone – that started it all. Bands of half-human, half-animal monsters prowl the streets and inhabit the fog. Beware the notoriously startling Sliders who lunge from between the fog-filled haunted attraction.”
THE HOLLOWS – SCARE ZONE
“From within the fog, Witches of the Hollow along, with their armies of creatures, have risen once again to battle with the Witch Hunter and terrorize guests among the haunted Halloween attractions.”
CARNEVIL – SCARE ZONE
“Knott’s Boardwalk is taken over by “CarnEVIL,” where the freak show is the main event and countless deviant clowns crave your undying attention.”
And so much more!!! Keep doing what ya’ll are doing, Knott’s! That level of energy and commitment is what keeps bringing us back again and again.
