Hmmmm... lol

 

[Jerroddragon]

I assume they will just announce houses soon

 

[Wishmaster]

Any IP predictions?

A nightmare on Elm Street

The teaser video just makes me want a "Mr Six Returns From Beyond the Grave" house & SZ

You can definitely hear the iconic Venga Boys song "We Like to Party" that Six Flags has used for years.

Six Flags Fright Fest 2024 Goes IP Heavy with ‘Trick ‘r Treat’, ‘Chainsaw Massacre’, ‘Saw’ & More!

The Conjuring, Stranger Things, Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead, DCeased, Saw, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Trick ‘r Treat are all coming to Six Flags Fright Fest.

Edit: Should add it's across the multiple parks.

Crazy boy delusional from too much cotton candy say what!?!?

You can't drop a bomb like that when I'm trying to rush out the door to Universal!!!

 

[ghostsarejerks]

Judging by the quality of Saw and Conjuring last year…not thrilled unless they’re getting huge budget increases

 

[chris.g]

Not sure if this is a result of distributors overpricing Universal for the IP or Six Flags overpaying

Six Flags about to drop a bomb and be like, HHN who?

100% agree they will need to increase budgeting because last year was a joke. My guess though is they used up a majority of the funds just acquiring these rumored IP's. We shall see!

The Conjuring, Stranger Things, Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead, DCeased, Saw, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Trick ‘r Treat are all coming to Six Flags Fright Fest.

There's something to specify here that is incredibly important: this is not as if it is meaning just for one park--it is a company-wide announcement with things going to be updated for the specific parks getting the specific IP's.

Great Adventure in particular, has been specified to be the only ones getting Texas 2022 (and Six Flags Mexico has also been specified as the only one to get DCeased). We likely aren't finding out what the lineup actually is for SFMM--until Midsummer next month.

 

[Wesker69]

Part of me wonders if they were hoping to keep this underwraps until Midsummer Scream seeing as their panel is Saturday & Universal is Sunday.

This is like Universal dropping Epic Universe infront of Disney who continues to announce "bus wraps"

 

[Jerroddragon]

I hope we get one DC themed house or scare zone

They have stuff from the the current DC event and would only have to store it for like a month before reusing it

 

[Wesker69]

The Suicide Squad meet-n-greet SZ in 2016/2017 was a hit.

And the Arkham Asylum house at WB was pretty amazing. It'd be nice if WB would resurrect it at SFMM for Fright Fest..

But now I'm over here all "ooooooo" at that DCeased concept lol

 

[Wishmaster]

Six Flags ain’t playing no games!
Think about this lineup
SAW
Conjuring Universe
Stranger Things
Army of the Dead
Trick r Treat

I am completely shocked and excited!

The DC house may be a surprise since Mexico has the exclusive one.

This is the bombshell news of the summer!

Either way, they’re putting in effort to level up. Universal no longer can have easy access to IPs. It’s legit competition now.

Judging by the quality of Saw and Conjuring last year…not thrilled unless they’re getting huge budget increases

SAW was fine but Conjuring was bad! It will improve with Annabelle and The Nun appearances.

 

[Wishmaster]

Read this!

So Magic Mountain is getting Army of the Dead, Trick 'r' Treat, Stranger Things, Saw, and Conjuring? I would bet the three mazes by the old tram plaza are getting replaced with Army of the Dead, Trick 'r' Treat and Stranger Things.

Last year was a 2/6 split - 2 IPs, 6 originals
My guess is 5/3 split for this year.
