With five full weekends in October, they’re testing a tighter schedule to boost comfort for guests and actors alike. This isn’t permanent—just an experiment—but don’t miss it: these iconic haunts (Edge of Hell since 1975, The Beast since 1991) are packing maximum scares into minimal time. Meanwhile, their third haunt, Macabre Cinema, remains on hold as its building gets redeveloped. If you crave terror, grab your tickets fast—October’s the only shot this year.
