Six Flags Magic Mountain’s 24th season of Fright Fest kicks off Saturday, and park officials are promising it will be the biggest and scariest in park history.

The exciting lineup of new haunted attractions includes a new scare zone themed after the Warner Bros. Pictures highly anticipated film, “Suicide Squad, “and the largest outdoor maze in the park’s history, “Aftermath 2: Chaos Rising.”

“Were utilizing a 2-dimensional art form and turning it into a 3-D live experience,” said Scott Sterner, director of entertainment and events.

“Aftermath 2: Chaos Rising” debuts this year in a new location.

Covering more than 40,000 square feet, the maze is meant to strike terror into the brave souls entering the mock post-apocalyptic city. Props include fire, fog and other special effects.

This year’s stunning new scare zone, “Suicide Squad: The Six Flags Fright Fest Experience” transforms the park’s DC Universe area into DC’s Midway City, where some of the “Worst Heroes Ever” from the highly-anticipated film “Suicide Squad” roam the streets.

For guests, some of DC Comics’ most famous supervillains will be found among the simulated aftermath of destruction from the film.

State-of-the-art digital imagery and fiery special effects will create an inferno as buildings burst into flames and creatures attack from every angle, park officials said.

Fright Fest will include other mazes, such as “TERRORtory Twisted,” a defunct toy factory “haunted by wicked windups, freakish furries and deranged dolls… ” according to officials, who added that this year the attractions will be offered in 3D, as well.

“Willoughby’s Resurrected” is a reincarnation of the Willoughby family’s beloved haunted mansion that includes hair-raising horror down long, harrowing hallways and around each nightmarish-turn, according to a Six Flags news release.

Fright Fest will begin each night at Six Flags Magic Mountain, starting at 7 p.m., with this Saturday as opening weekend.

A Trick or Treat Trail and Halloween Crafts round out the activities during the day.
