Might as well add Howl O scream to this.... it's at Busch Gardens Williamsburg Started the 19th of September and runs thru to the 26th of october. Normal Amusement park halloween themed for October this year they have a new scare zone in the Italy section of the park, my favorite from last year was The never Ending, which was Grimms happily neverafter and off the beaten path.... pretty much childrens bedtime stories turn into gory and scary endings.... the three little pigs room freaked me out lol nasty looking pigs and gettin up in my face was not a nice thing to do lol! Check it out at www.howloscream.com, had a blast last year might go back one of the weekends in October, not to mention the newest addition rollercoaster called the Griffon that is AWESOME!!!  |

Scarowinds = 8 mazes 3 scare zones 1 show.
Howl o scream = 5 mazes 4 scare zones 5 shows.
It really is up to you. I go to scarowinds because it is only a 30 minute drive from my house, and I have been going every year since it opended

haha, i've never been to either before but im hoping I get the chance this year. Both are about 3 hours away (im stuck in the middle of the 2) so I guess whichever gets the best review over the next couple of weeks will be the one I visit later in the month.

I've never been to either, but would love to visit both. I think the idea that theme parks and amusement parks are finally getting into Halloween is awesome!

Yes it is amazing. You know if you enjoy Halloween you will enjoy a haunted theme park whether its scary or not. It is the simple fact that it is a amusement park turned haunted nightmare! I love it. And I freaking love Halloween!!!!

Yea, most def! I wish Kings Dominon would do the same think that Carowinds does! They are owned by the same company so im not understanding why they dont do it  I'd love to go ride Volcanno in the dark with a haunted atmosphere! |

Kings Dominion does a haunted thing too.... it's called Halloween Haunt I've never been to that one although it's the closest to me.... I like Busch Gardens better  But thats just my opinion.... it's been awhile since I've been to KD, like 3 years I think. |

I went to King's Dominion probably 12 - 14 years ago. It was cool, but the lines were INSANE! I've never seen another amusement park where there were signs saying "Wait from this spot approximately 3 hours"! 3 hours! So I get to ride like 2 rides a day?!

haha yea, I went to KD on mothers day weekend. (perfect time to go!!!!)
Went made it a weekend trip and went from open-close on saturday and sunday. The longest we waited in line both days was about 15 minutes! Most of the ride had an average of about 3-5 minutes and some of them we could just sit on and ride again!
It was awesome!

I believe I saw that place on an episode of world's scariest destinations. Looked pretty cool.
