Dorney Park has updated their Haunt website to show their offering of haunted attractions for this year's Halloween Haunt, which kicks off on September 18th and runs select nights through October 30th.  Along with the reveal of attractions, the park is also now selling tickets for the event, along with Fright and Fast Lane offerings.  Plus, they have a sweet bring a friend deal for season pass holders as well.

This year's event will feature new attractions in addition to returning favorites, all sure to give visitors a fright.  New this year in the maze category is Enigma, where "mayhem and madness have taken over and pandemonium reigns supreme."  This maze will confuse "your senses with impressive illusions, blinding lights and overwhelming mindbenders."  With each room more twisted than the last, the cherry on top is that hidden monsters will feel free to pounce while visitors are distracted.  This new haunted house will set up shop where Urgent Scare formerly was, as that attraction has been retired.


Returning haunted mazes this year also include Blackout, Blood on the Bayou, Cornstalkers, Necropolis, Tourist Trap and Trick Or Treat.

There will also be a brand new scare zone this year, named The Hollow.  The Hollow is described as a new area that "captures the spirit of Halloween with dazzling décor and eye-catching pumpkin displays of all shapes and sizes."  Sounds friendly, sure, at least in the daytime.  But at night when dark sets in and mist fills The Hollow things will be different.  Visitors will pass though "winding vines" and come "face-to-face with ghoulish, flickering pumpkin carvings."  It will become hard to tell which are decorations and which have come to life.  This new scare zone will be set up in the general area that the Pumpkin Spectacular was located on in previous years, on the park's lower midway.


Returning additional scare zones include CarnEvil, Steamworx and The Lair.

With regard to live entertainment the park currently lists that Skeleton Crew will be back on the Possessed Midway, which is awesome since this show is a fan favorite.  Located just by the show will be the Port of Call, a specialty bar featuring custom brews and other spirits.  Also of note, Blood Drums will not return this year with additional entertainment options still to be announced.  And don't forget, the park's rides will be open and that means night rides, too!


Despite the tough conditions of the year the park is putting on a full Haunt event, and even noted that they have plussed many returning attractions with new theming, changes and other improvements.  Helps keep the visitors clueless for the monsters!
