Howl-O-Scream Media Night at Busch Gardens Tampa

Last week was media night for the always amazing Howl-O-Scream at Busch Gardens Tampa. And of course Renee was there for the fun in the fog of one of our favorite parks.

Lots of new stuff to see this year, one retiring house and lots of fun and chainsaws. Let's check it out!

More spooky times on the east coast tonight at Busch Gardens Tampa’s Howl O Scream.

We were greeted by all sorts of chainsaw characters immediately upon entering the park.

Really like the look of the merchandise this year. There is also some sort of interactive fog skull necklace.

Made a new friend at the Giraffe Bar.

Strangleeood Estate is new for this year and had some excellent scares and great sets.

Jell-O shots, anyone?

Night rides on Iron Gwazi are incredible!

Looking like this is the last year for Death Water Bayou, always a solid house.

The Junkyard scare zone has been such a fun addition these past few years and a throwback to previous houses.

Witch in the Woods is so great, such a fantastic returning house.

There are so many scare zones and with all the dark pathways in the park, it’s easy to get spooked.

Zombie clowns + bumper cars is a winning combo.

The Residence was not one of my favorite houses before, but putting a holiday spin on it made it so much better! What a fun house.

I can’t say enough good things about the scare zones at Howl O Scream.

Busch Gardens Tampa has another awesome Howl O Scream season on their hands. Thanks for having us and we can’t wait to come back!

You can find Mrs. Claus telling stories and singing songs several times each night at the Coke Canopy.

After getting our fill of the various treats and drinks, we took a lap around the park to check out the light displays.

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!

Written by Renée Girard

And now on our tour of haunts around the country this weekend, we’re at Busch Gardens Tampa!

Love the Halloween atmosphere but not a fan of being scared? You can get yourself a “No Boo” necklace.

Kicking off our night at Howl-O-Scream by drinking beer with giraffes.

Voodoo scare zone!

It’s so beautiful.

Death Water Bayou is always such a great house.

The Junkyard is an awesome walk through/scare zone where you can revisit some scares from the past.

So many scare actors in The Junkyard.

Witch of the Woods was absolutely amazing!

In the Shadows scare zone, so creepy and fun!

The Forgotten took us into the dark and sexy vampire world.

If you need some liquid courage, there are plenty of drink options.

Skeleton Crew scare zone had pirates out and about.

A crowd favorite, zombies and bumper cars!

I feel like every haunted event has to have clowns somewhere.

The Residence is one of the returning houses, honestly not my favorite but has some good scares.

Little Nightmares was one of my favorite scare zones. They’re just so cute!

The Shortcut scare zone, definitely the most dark and morbid.

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?!
