Howl-O-Scream 2021 at Busch Gardens Tampa

This past weekend we were invited out to Howl-O-Scream at Busch Gardens Tampa to get our scare on at the always amazing Howl-O-Scream. Some new and returning houses were on hand in addition to some amazing scare zones!

And now on our tour of haunts around the country this weekend, we’re at Busch Gardens Tampa!
Picture
Love the Halloween atmosphere but not a fan of being scared? You can get yourself a “No Boo” necklace.
Picture
Kicking off our night at Howl-O-Scream by drinking beer with giraffes.
Picture
Picture
Voodoo scare zone!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
It’s so beautiful.
Picture
Picture
Death Water Bayou is always such a great house.
Picture
Picture
Picture
The Junkyard is an awesome walk through/scare zone where you can revisit some scares from the past.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
So many scare actors in The Junkyard.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Witch of the Woods was absolutely amazing!
Picture
Picture
In the Shadows scare zone, so creepy and fun!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
The Forgotten took us into the dark and sexy vampire world.
Picture
Picture
If you need some liquid courage, there are plenty of drink options.
Picture
Picture
Skeleton Crew scare zone had pirates out and about.
Picture
Picture
A crowd favorite, zombies and bumper cars!
Picture
Picture
Picture
I feel like every haunted event has to have clowns somewhere.
Picture
Picture
The Residence is one of the returning houses, honestly not my favorite but has some good scares.
Picture
Picture
Little Nightmares was one of my favorite scare zones. They’re just so cute!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
The Shortcut scare zone, definitely the most dark and morbid.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
We’ve reached the final house of the night, Cell Block Zombies. There have been prison houses and zombie houses before, so why not put them together - what could go wrong?!
Picture
Picture
Thanks for a great night at Busch Gardens Howl O Scream! Loved seeing this event fully back with all the scares and houses!

Busch Gardens Tampa Iron Gwazi Update - March 3, 2020

Picture
Last week, Steve and Jennifer headed out to Busch Gardens Tampa to take in this years Food and Wine Festival. 

Of course, that meant getting some awesome pics of Iron Gwazi construction. Who's ready to ride this beast? We sure are!! Take a look. 

Written by Steve Burant
Last Friday we went to Busch Gardens for more Food & Wine fun, but really it was to take some well-lit photos of the current progress on Iron Gwazi's construction.
Picture
This ride is going to rape my face, and I'm going to love every second of it. ​
Picture
Still not crazy about the name, but the logo and sign look good.
Picture
Look at those coordinated twisties!
Picture
The station fly by where the two old Gwazi trains used to fly by each other.
Picture
Give me all the overbanks. All of them.
Picture
I mean technically we were here for this. What a sign!
Picture
Even the moon is like, "Hey there, looking good."
Picture
"HEY! What if the moon were made of Iron Gwazi, would you eat it??"
Picture
Mooooooon Gwaziiiiiii, shorterrrrrr than a mileeee............
Picture
Until I get a better lens, this is the best I can do with moon photos, so I'll take as many as I can during the day.
Picture
This is the barrel roll under the lift hill. One could expect a bevy of loose change to be under this element in the near future.
Picture
RMC's famous wrong-way banked airtime hill. This is the 2nd hill of the ride and will be sure to provide some fantastic hairtime.
Picture
Some ridiculous type of inversion formulated in the same secret lab as Covid-19.
Picture
This photo brought to you by PPE.
Picture
Steepest hybrid coaster in the world by a whopping 1 degree!
Picture
*chef's kiss*
Picture
I wonder if the manufacturers who build these terrible wooden coasters are secretly proud that their monstrosities were the foundation of incredible creations by a better engineering firm.
Picture
That's enough of the 2nd hill for now. This element will rock my socks.
Picture
And the last look at the first hill that will surely be phenomenal.
Picture
This barrel roll will also be spectacular.
Picture
And whatever the hell this element is called will be scrumptralescent. (RIP James Lipton)
