As summer temperatures sizzle, Six Flags Magic Mountain is already cooling things down with a dose of dread: Fright Fest is returning for the 2025 season.

Running from Sept. 19 through Nov. 2, this year’s Fright Fest presented by Snickers brings back fan-favorite haunted mazes, terrifying scare zones, electrifying shows and introduces three brand-new experiences.

NEW! Maze: Carnage presented by M&M’S
Get ready to enter the chaotic fortress of Carnage, a maniacal clown commanding a legion of followers in a dystopian nightmare. Located in the DC Universe, this new maze promises high-voltage horror and twisted theatrics like never before.

NEW! Scare Zone: Thunderbolt Alley
