Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream

Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream
1 Busch Gardens Boulevard

Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream® returns this fall in full-force celebrating 25 years of fear with ALL-NEW scares, taking over the entire park with five haunted houses, six terror-tories™, four sinister shows and more. Unsuspecting horrors await their victims at every turn. Plus, guests can test their thrill threshold with 9 world-class coasters at night, offering a completely different ride experience.

Parental discretion is advised after 6:00 PM, as this year’s event contains amplified scares that are not recommended for children.

Please be advised, Sesame Street Forest of Fun, Land of the Dragons and all other kid attractions will close nightly at 5pm to prepare for Howl-O-Scream.
