Almost time to unleash the monsters!

Knott’s Scary Farm is now Open!

The 4 mazes (Wax Work, The Depth, Dark Entities & Paranormal) in GhostRider area are still fantastic!

The Depths. Wow! This maze is still Insanely good! There’s a Giant octopus & shark. You also walk through a ship that actually rocks back and fourth. Incredible sets.

Dark Entities still a fun maze

This is also the last year for Paranormal Inc.

Origins: The Curse of Calico. Wow! This is still Amazing.

“Gore-ing 20’s” is a new scare zone. They also do live dancing & singing on the balcony of Knott’s theatre.

New this year is Carnival du Grotesque band. They used to perform at Disneyland.

The Hanging show used to perform on this stage.

Hopefully, they bring back the Hanging in the future.
