Six Flags' newly expanded Fright Fest for 2024 includes the Conjuring films, Stranger Things, and DC Comics.

July 1 marked the official merger day between Six Flags and Cedar Fair into Six Flags Entertainment Corporation, a process set in motion after last year’s $8 billion deal. The Hollywood Reporter confirmed that two theme park companies have officially combined operations, bringing together Six Flags locations with Cedar Fair’s portfolio, which includes Knott’s Berry Farm among other regional theme parks.

It was shocking news to say the least, as a number of those IP names had a presence at Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights in past years. It remains to be seen if these will also be incorporated into Knott’s Scary Farm’s iconic haunt event—but we’re hoping it and its sister parks keep the Halloween traditional lore vibe that’s made them such spooky giants, and that the effort we see at Knott’s elevates the IP-heavy slate coming to Six Flags.
