This past weekend was the opening night for Fright Fest at Six Flags Magic Mountain. So we made our way up in the evening to check out the event a bit. We didn't do any mazes or anything on this visit, but did spend some time in the scare zones and in the stores. It's fair to say that there is more Fright Fest merchandise available than in any previous year. Do wish it was park specific and not just generic "Six Flags" though. But definitely some cool looking stuff. Let's head in! Written by Gregg Condon  Welcome back to Fright Fest!  Open the door, the Demons Door that is!  One of two new scare zones, Terror Rising: Dark Developments  I think they could have just stuck with "Terror Rising", don't need the rest.   The area was rather sparsely populated, in fact I only saw 1 scareactor in the area. A theme for much of the night sadly.  Took a ride on Viper for my friends from Coaster Kings!  We love this Scare Zone! Of course, that meant we had to visit a friend ...  Coolest. Flowers. EVER!  The other new scare zone, The Deadzone  Lots of bright colors and definitely fits The Underground theme   Sadly, this area was also pretty sparsely populated, only 2 or 3 monsters here.   The area looks great though! And I'm sure we'll see more monsters this upcoming weekend!      Some really amazing props and a mini walk-through  Not sure which one of us is scarier  Would have loved to get pics of the full car, but there was literally a family sitting on the hood eating dinner. No, I'm not kidding.  A look down at The Deadzone/The Underground  Sewer of Souls was not open on opening night. Not sure if it opened on Sunday. Anybody know?   Tatsu is back open!  Sneaking a couple of Constructions pics in!   Due to construction, this scare zone is a bit smaller than usual.  City Under Siege is back!   Definitely one of the more popular scare zones  Had to visit some old friends  Terrortory Twisted is also back this year!     The props in here are amazing  Full Throttle Nights are back as well!  And that brings is back to Demon's Door!   MerchandiseThere's a lot of great merchandise at this years event too!   Not cool enough in Southern California to need this yet
 Definitely don't need more cups, but this one is cool looking!  I'm all for being bold and out there, but this was on an infants shirt. Seriously.
They also had a lot of 3rd party shirts that were actually less expensive than you'll find them elsewhere. ESPECIALLY if you have a discount. Worth checking out in the slideshow below.  Was glad to see them FINALLY put some 50th Anniversary Merchandise out on the floor. There's just one problem.  This ride does not exist nor has ever existed at Magic Mountain.  This one is "slightly" better. But seriously, put out some proper merchandise, celebrating the parks history, I promise, they'll fly off the shelf.  Goodnight from Fright Fest. We'll be back this Saturday for media night! Related Videos
