Shows

This year at 7pm and 8pm a new show called bloodlust - dark magic will be on which is an illusionist show by Matt Hollywood.

Here Movie Worlds description -

"Dare to enter the world of blood magic and witness the impossible as the Executioner summons the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse in an illusion show spectacular. Watch as he performs ritual sacrifices to bring forth the end of days and death defying illusions with a twisted edge, starring master illusionist Matt Hollywood."

Mazes

There are 4 mazes this year with 2 new ones and two returning,

One of these will be JIGSAW MAZE

Heres the story - "The game is simple, the best ones are, you want mercy? Play by the rules... A mysterious madman has rounded up his group of victims to play sadistic games of life of death. Step inside most disturbing house of torture yet as you get one last chance at redemption, if you want mercy you must play the game of survival. You know what happens if you don’t follow the rules, live or die it’s up to you, just remember some games can be won."

The second new maze is called HALLOWEEN MAZE the story for this one is...

"Every Legend is based on fact, every myth is grounded in truth. This year pure evil is released once more as Michael Myers comes home to kill again.On a night where evil roams the streets, and a mad man rules the night, you will be thrust into a world of pure evil as reality is brought to life. You know his name, and you know what he has come to do, so stay away from Haddonfield this Halloween if you want to survive the night."

The first returning maze is the FROM DUSK TILL DAWN - THE SERIES MAZE according to Movie World the maze is about "Your bank robbery has gone wrong, you’ve kidnapped a family, made a deal with a devil cartel and are about to enter a bar that really SUCKS...When the sun goes down, don’t bother looking for trouble, trouble will find you. The women are hot, the dancing is better and the music is loud, but how do you survive in a bar where their favourite drink is you?"

And the second returning maze is THE CONJURING 2 MAZE, Movie World is describing this as "Are you brave enough to survive this year, or will you be driven out by the horrors lurking inside?An ominous presence is felt by us all and some strange occurrences have been taking place inside. People who enter don’t come out the same. Very few are strong enough to resist the impressing spirit taking over mind and body. If you’re one of the strong ones they won’t want you in their presence. This is their house...this is their park... and unless you submit, unless they can use you... you’re not welcome."

So thats all the awesome mazes coming this year but theres more things to see and do...

Precincts

The precincts are scare place throughout the park that you can go to in-between the mazes so you won't get bored, there will be 3 precincts this year with 2 new and 1 returning and these are the precincts.

DARK ARTS is one of the new precincts "The world you once knew has been infested by creatures of unnatural means. Practitioners of the Dark Arts have descended on Main Street and are looking for unwilling victims to fuel their blood magic rituals. Don't fall victim to their seductive lure, and make no mistake they mean harm to all they encounter."

The second new precinct is THE EVIL WITHIN 2 offers "From the twisted mind of master horror director Shinji Mikami comes this years most anticipated sequel - The Evil Within 2. Step into a living nightmare and get a taste of real survival horror as you try to find your way past Stephano's creation to reach relative safety on the other side. Be forewarned this route to the maze precinct is not for the faint of heart."

The returning precinct is GOTHIC HALL this is how which sounds interesting...

"If you’ve got everything to hide, and everything to fear this Fright Nights you can escape the non-stop scares and screams inside Gothic Hall, the only place you can seek refuge. A space where light and sound meet to create a completely unique sensory experience."

Panic rooms are where a group of you and your friends 2-6 have 20 minutes to escape a room, you'll have clues that will help you escape and there will be four this year.

Junkyard Dog $79.99 per roomWhen you and your mates go searching for pop from the junkyard, you end up barricaded in a dingy shed, surrounded by giant long sharp fangs and sounds of guttural growling. Can you escape before those beasts break through the back door and you end up as doggy dinner!

Zombies! $79.99 per roomThe Zombie apocalypse has finally happened! You find a group of survivors and come across a village where you hide in a bunker, but they are close and you must get out and move on to the next town before they find you...
