Last weekend we were invited out to Six Flags Magic Mountain for one of our favorite holiday events, Holiday at the Park. Even though it was our Anniversary we wanted to make sure we took the time to visit for a few hours and enjoy the park, and we're very glad we did.
​Let's head in for some holiday fun! 
Before we get to the holiday fun though, a look at the updated front entrance where all of the ticket booths have been removed other than the ones on each side.
It definitely opens up this area and it will be interesting to see if they open it up more in the weeks and months to come. We definitely wouldn't be mad if they made the entry plaza after security bigger to accommodate the crowds during the summer for both Magic Mountain and Hurricane Harbor.
Iconic Park Entry!
Also wanted to take a possible last look at the Golden Bear Theater, which is slated for demolition soon.
Saw so many great shows in here. Weird Al. Jars of Clay. Okay, so like two.
But there were a lot of iconic shows here over the years including Oingo Boingo, New Kids on the Block. Jonas Brothers, Spinal Tap (with puppets).
Could this be the last event displayed on this iconic sign?
We also had a new video last week where we detailed what we could see in this spot, and also Knott's Camp Snoopy changes. Check it out below!
Alright, let's get into the Holiday fun! Santa and Mrs. Claus wished us a happy anniversary!
I think there are 2 days of Hanukkah left?
Did you know all of the holiday characters come out from backstage here like the monsters in Fright Fest? We didn't. It was very cool, wish we would have known so we could get video.
Severe lack of sliders, but still incredible! Plus, snow!
Heading over to get our Gleampunk on!
Would it be a holiday event with no hot chocolate? You can even enhance it with some awesome flavorings!
The decorations back here seemed a bit lacking this year, but the playlist is amazing!
We recreated the playlist on Spotify when this area debuted, and Apple Music this year.
You can play it below! 
The bus is back!!
I have to admit, this is one of my favorite holiday area's of any park.
We end our visit back in the front of the park, with some incredible lights.
Even a bit of haunt fog to enjoy!
Thanks again for having us out SFMM!

This last weekend we were invited out to Six Flags Magic Mountain to check out this years Fright Fest. After the success of Scream Break earlier this year, we were very much anticipating this event and hoping that some of the operational changes made during Scream Break would carry over to Fright Fest.
Unfortunately with some delays in the two new mazes, and them keeping the previous 6 mazes we feared that perhaps they'd stretched themselves too thin again. We were pleasantly surprised that this wasn't the case, and that many of the existing mazes have received significant upgrades and updated storylines. So let's head right in and have some spooky fun! 
Before the lights went out in the park, we were invited to a bit of a reception with some Fright Fest treats, which allowed us to get some daytime pics of decor.
It was a delightfully chilly evening at the park, which just added to the spooky factor.
Some fantastic photo ops in front of Golden Bear Theater.
Sadly this one had some damage, don't touch stuff!!
Also managed to get a ride on the best hyper coaster on the west coast.
At 7:00 it's time for the monsters to be unleashed! In our opinion, Magic Mountain has the best opening "scaremony" of any theme park haunt. It's just so fun.
Unlike previous years, we only have video of the new mazes on our YouTube, but we'll be posting highlights of the existing mazes on our Instagram over the next few days!
We really enjoyed Saw, the visuals were quite stunning!
The other new maze for 2023 was The Conjuring, this reminded us a LOT of the Conjuring maze that was at the WB event a few years back, which makes sense.
We absolutely loved this maze, so awesomely creepy with some tremendous effects.
While not technically a new maze, we did not get a chance to experience Truth or Dare last year, and based on the videos we saw from last year, this years maze is much improved. We absolutely loved it.
As far as returning mazes are concerned, Vault 666 has received yet another story change, and it's easily the best incarnation of this maze yet. If you'll remember, when the maze first started it was some kind of animal hybrid theme. The maze now features little resemblance in story to the original. So much so, we're shocked they haven't changed the name.
Condemned House Party was back from Scream Break and was just as much fun. Although we missed the party going on outside of the maze itself. Not sure why they didn't bring all that back.
Willoughby's Resurrected was back and received some nice upgrades inside the maze, which was great to see.
Sewer of Souls was also back and gave me my first, and so far only scare of the 2023 Haunt Season. So thank you!
Aftermath 2 also got some great upgrades, and far less soldiers telling you to "go go go". Which isn't scary. Still, we'd love to see the neon lights of the nearby Dead Zone scare zone come into the maze to give it new life.
Let's check out some of the scare zones, which are, in our opinion, the best in the business.
Nightmares is one of our favorite scare zones at any event
We also got to see our dear Lorraine Lurane
The Dead Zone mini scare zone/walk-through was back, and was full of monsters!
The unnecessary scare zone heading up the hill is gone, but the lighting has remained. We love this choice. Better to use the talent to fill the other areas vs only having 1 or 2 actors here.
The newest scare zone at the front of the park was also back, we love this area so much!
And of course, City Under Siege is back, and is definitely using the entire area this year, which is fantastic!
Definitely the most popular scare zone at the park
There are two additional scare zones:
We'll leave you a look at some Fright Fest merchandise, which has been upgraded this year!
That said, we'd really love some Magic Mountain specific merchandise.
Just putting it out there, since our dear Innocence has now retired from Fright Fest, we'd be all over a Fright Fest shirt featuring that character.
Some WB merchandise as well, which isn't surprising. Could we possibly see some other WB horror franchises come to Fright Fest in future years?
That's going to wrap it up for our review of Fright Fest 2023! We will definitely be back for more spooky fun before the end of the month.
