Once again this year, Knott’s Berry Farm hosted a special event announcing all of the new and returning elements for the 51st anniversary season of Knott’s Scary Farm. Two new mazes and a collection of returning favorites await those brave enough when the event kicks off on September 19th!
What’s Happening:
- Knott’s Scary Farm is the longest-running and most haunting Halloween theme park event in Southern California. With over 50 years of nightmares, unimaginable scares and innovative thrills, Knott’s Scary Farm has left no tomb unearthed, no crypt un-rattled and no fear untouched.
- During a special “Nightmares Revealed” event on the night of August 22nd, new and returning elements for this year’s event were revealed.
- Two new mazes, Eight Fingers Nine: The Boogeyman and Widow, will be joining the line-up this year.
- “Step inside a living fairy tale in a colonial township that's under siege by an inhuman monster that preys from the dark. As night descends, Eight Fingers Nine emerges from the shadows in search of fresh meat. His vicious bite penetrates deep, causing sleep paralysis which holds his victim in sway while he slowly consumes their flesh. Step lively and beware the dark, or you may be the main course at his next meal!”
- “Can you hear that? The spider possessed residents of the convalescent home are preparing a special place for you. Enter their web and succumb to their dark desires in Widow.”
- Returning mazes this year include:
- Origins: The Curse of Calico
- Mesmer
- The Grimoire
