Six Flags invites family travelers craving a good scare to head to this year’s Fright Fest Extreme, which the brand recently revealed.

The fest begins across Six Flags parks Sept. 7.
What can you expect?
At Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey and Six Flags Magic Mountain in Los Angeles, visitors step into a world where nightmarish creatures inspired by the Saw franchise; Netflix’s Stranger Things and Army of the Dead; Warner Bros Discovery’s The Conjuring, Annabelle and The Nun; and Legendary Entertainment’s Trick ‘r Treat come to life. Six Flags Great Adventure will also feature a new experience from Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Jan 8, 2026What is a Salvaged Stay and How to Plan One
Salvaged stays are an emerging trend in travel that let family travelers enjoy a unique way to experience a destination. Rather than staying in a destination’s big-ticket resort hotel or a cookie-cutter vacation rental, travelers look to the world’s repurposed properties, like abandoned mills and defunct train stations-turned-hotels that have found new life. These renovated properties are a lesson in sustainability and give families a chance to discover a unique view of the history of a destination.
