California’s Great America introduces Snoopy’s Trick-Or-Treat Festival for 2013. Snoopy’s Trick-Or-Treat Festival runs Saturdays and Sundays from Oct. 5-27 with activities throughout the park’s 10am-5:30pm daytime hours. (Halloween Haunt runs from 7pm-Midnight and requires a separate ticket.)

Guests 12 and younger can race through a hay maze, decorate pumpkins or watch the Fun House Express video in the action theater. Of course, the younger set will enjoy wearing their costumes to Great America and trick-or-treating with Snoopy and the Peanuts gang.

Don’t forget to have the little ones visit our giant talking pumpkin that will interact with kids throughout Snoopy’s Trick-Or-Treat Festival.

Halloween Haunt at California’s Great America will begin frightening and scaring guests Sept. 27 on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and keep the evil running until Oct. 27. Scare times run from 7pm-Midnight on each eerie evening.

Halloween Haunt’s sixth horrifying season will debut two new sinister mazes, raising the frightful walks of terror count to eight. Dia de los Muertos lures victims into the forbidden jungle of El Chupacabra – where blood rains from the sky. La Llorona, the Weeping Woman, delivers horrifying screams as creatures of the night crawl from their crypts. In the bloody halls of Zombie High, students experience a horrific homecoming with demonic hellions roaming about.

Great America’s six returning haunted mazes include: Slaughterhouse Annihilation, CarnEvil, Werewolf Canyon, CornStalkers, Madame Marie’s Massacre Manor and Toy Factory.

“Halloween Haunt is the Bay Area’s premier fright event,” said California’s Great America Vice President and General Manager Raul Rehnborg. “Haunt provides terrifying mazes and in-your-face experiences, mixed with the added fun of all our thrill rides. Halloween Haunt at California’s Great America is the perfect place to confront your fears.”

Also new for 2013 is Fun House Express in the Action Theater, a haunted attraction featuring a hilarious and wild underground ride filled with clowns, chaos and surprises.

Three exhilarating Scare Zones return for 2013 to keep guests on edge throughout the night. In Dead Man’s Cove – dastardly dead pirates pursue your souls, while The Gauntlet area features tortured spirits lurking in the fog. Underworld Alley is a forgotten graveyard where the undead awake to wreak havoc.

Halloween Haunt’s five Live Shows bring additional frights, shrills and campiness to Great America. New for 2013, Blades of Horror transports screen images to life and guest can only hope to depart safely in Halloween Haunt’s inaugural ice show.

The Halloween Haunt experience begins each evening with the Overlord unleashing his fury from atop Carousel Columbia.

Indiana Appeals Court Sides With Lori Koch in Dispute Over Control of Holiday World

1237188_10151635316634538_756780051_o

(October 4, 2013) — Jeff Swiatek reports on indystar.com about the latest development in the fight for control of Holiday World:

“The Indiana Appeals Court laid the groundwork for a Koch family makeup with a ruling Thursday that appears to end the family’s bitter, three-year feud over control of Holiday World.

“The ruling allows Lori Koch, the widow of former Holiday World President Will Koch, to retain her controlling interest in the southern Indiana amusement park.

“Lori, a former entertainer at the park, became entangled in a court battle with her brother-in-law, Dan Koch, over who should control Will’s 60 percent stake in the park, after his death by drowning in 2010.

“Only another appeal to the Indiana Supreme Court can prolong the legal fight at this point. Now that the appeals court has denied their appeal, neither Dan Koch nor his Evansville attorney offered a comment on what they’re thinking of doing next.

“Dan Koch, who owns the remaining 40 percent of the shares in the family company that controls the amusement park, is a Florida attorney who put his law practice on hold to run Holiday World after his brother’s death.

“His sister-in-law argued in a lawsuit that Dan’s $27 million offer undervalued her husband’s shares by at least $5 million. A Vanderburgh County judge agreed, saying Dan’s offer was invalid because it breached a family agreement that outlined the procedures for buying shares if a family shareholder died . . .

“. . . While money was a main issue in the dispute, Lori Koch also said in an interview earlier this year that she wants control of the 67-year-old park because her husband had been grooming their three children to take over. Lori has appointed all three of the children, who last spring ranged in age from 19 to 24, to the board of Koch Development Corp., which owns the park. She also put a fourth person on the board, Chip Cleary, a longtime amusement park operator from New York who was a friend of Will.

“‘I know in my heart Will had the intent for his kids to inherit this park,’ she said. ‘This is their dad’s legacy for them.’

“After firing her brother-in-law, Lori hired a former Holiday World chief financial officer, Matt Eckert, as the first non-Koch president of the park.”

Trapped: The New Experiment

Making its debut in 2012, Trapped was Knott’s Scary Farm’s first reservation only, interactive maze – and was an immediate sell-out. Trapped returns bigger and more intense than its predecessor. For those lucky enough to secure a reservation, Trapped will offer a longer running time, more challenging puzzles, more mind-bending contraptions and more in-your-face scares. *Additional fee applies.

Come enjoy Halloween at the Parque de Atracciones de Madrid between  5 October to November 3.

This year we offer you terrific decorations, four free passages of terror, and a great number of zombies in the park. Can you survive?

The Parque de Atracciones de Madrid returns with all its might to make the best Halloween ever, where exit to our attractions will be the only place where you feel safe.  For the more adventurous and eager for the goosebumps, we have four available free haunted mazes:  Gate of Hell , where Dante himself joins us; Space Nightmare, the first haunted maze set in space with aliens; Blood Feast , a fast food restaurant in which you are the main course; and also the Castle of John the Fearless for children.

The amusement park will be fully themed for horror . We’ll have animatronic giants, like Necromancer, an amazing monster 7 meters high, the Angel of Death, a spectacular Dragon, and horror characters that will leave you breathless.

The main course will come with  Zombie Stop where an incidents occurs at a high security prison that will result in hungry zombies roaming the park.

But not all monsters want to do evil, some just want to dance and sing  frantically in Bloody Grease . We also have engaging choreographers who will teach you the steps from Zombietown.  As night falls, say goodbye to our creatures in the audiovisual show  Voodoo .

For children to also enjoy the fun of being afraid, we have prepared a child Halloween especially for them. Witches and scarecrows will welcome them. In our makeup kiosk, will have everything you need to create scarecrows, pumpkins and spider webs, and for those young who are brave, we have prepared a passage of terror called The Castle of John the Fearless, through which they may go alone or accompanied, where they can help John without fear of facing bats, ghosts and puppets to reach the great Dragon. John needs the help of children to stay safe  from many dangers!

If any child needs someone to help them through among the many skulls, with friends SpongeBob, Patrick or Dora the Explorer, the park will also be taking care of the little ones.

We can not forget the Old Big House ,  our special walkthrough maze that has been scaring visitors tirelessly with frightening characters since 1989 that you enter for  only 4.5 €.
