If you’re a fan of the spooky, the scary or the darkest side of dark chocolate…look no further for your Halloween fix than Hersheypark Dark Nights! This park-hosted scare event delivers a thrilling, immersive experience that has only grown in scale and intensity since its debut. With five haunted houses, including the highly anticipated Estate of Evil, three scare zones and a wide array of seasonal snacks and merchandise, Dark Nights continued to expand and impress in 2024!
For nearly three decades, banners saying ‘Halloween Horror Nights’ have been raised at not one but two different theme parks in North America - one in Orlando, FL, and the other in Hollywood, CA. So, which campus puts on the best version of Halloween Horror Nights? To make that determination, let’s take a look at the seven deadly things that make HHN the event that it is on both coasts.
We were invited out to Darkwood Manor, an iconic haunted attraction nestled just outside Shenandoah National Park, to help the team kick off its 2024 haunt season - and were some of the first to square off against the hellscape of the Phantom Forge and the rogue artificial intelligence known only as P.E.G. - an experience we will not soon forget!
Red Vein Haunted House, an independent haunt located on Hanover Vegetable Farm, has been a growing force in Virginia’s haunt scene for nine years. Despite frequently passing through the area, we had never been able to experience Red Vein firsthand until owner and creative architect Ryan Sligh invited us out to help themkick off their 2024 operating season. Having heard nothing but praise from fellow haunters and scare actors, we were eager to see if it lived up to the hype. Spoiler alert: it did!
When checking in to the Hawthorne Hotel, one must be ready for anything and everything that may befall oneself before the sun rises! The 2024 spooky season saw our return to Fright Farm in Smithfield, PA, and this year's new theme of a “Night at the Hawthorne” was worth the ticket price all on its own!
A now-iconic haunt occupying the ruins of the historic Twin Cinema in Laurel, MD, the House of Horror boasts a seasonal staff of more than sixty, and the team has worked around the clock to build, paint, polish and stain each prop, set and dressing to bring a decade of fear to the Baltimore/Washington metro area!
We took on all three ‘Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit’ scavenger hunts across the Disneyland Resort property in Anaheim, CA, and we have a complete list of every pumpkin location for you - complete with photos and helpful tips and tricks!
Field of Screams has really upped their game for 2024, with major construction at the main entrance including an all-new ticket office, updates and new scenes for the four iconic attractions, a VIP and private party venue and a permanent home for the popular ‘Chainsaw Bar’ and so much more!
As the leaves start to change and a crisp breeze settles in, there's no better way for families to welcome the fall season than with a visit to Corn Cob Acres in Mountville, PA. Corn Cob Acres is a family-friendly daytime event that runs on weekends from September through November, offering more than 50 different activities designed to entertain guests of all ages. We were invited out for opening weekend, and we were absolutely blown away by how much there was to do!
A trip to central Florida is not complete without a visit to our favorite Walt Disney World park, Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This visit, we decided to splurge on one of our bucket list DAK experiences…the Wild Africa Trek! This add-on, extra magical VIP experience is a 3-hour behind-the-scenes tour that includes lunch, complimentary experience photos and so much more!
Directly across the street from Seaworld Orlando lies a tropical hideaway where dozens of aquatic and avian animal species are allowed to run, play and interact with guests under the watchful eyes of the resort staff. We had never been to Discovery Cove, an all-inclusive day resort, until the summer of 2024 - and after visiting for the first time, we couldn’t wait to share our experience!
It’s been some time since our last visit to Seaworld Orlando, and despite the bad weather that was brewing, we were determined to make it out to this aqua-mazing park and claim the two brand-new roller coaster credits that lay waiting for us. If you’ve never been to Seaworld Orlando, we’re here to give you a long list of reasons why you should make it a part of your next Central Florida vacation!
One does not simply sleep in on the first day of a Walt Disney World vacation; as it happened, we were ready to hit the ground running, and our first gate was the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow…more conventionally known as EPCOT. Joined by our friend Frances, a fellow creator and Florida local, we took on almost every attraction and a number of first-time experiences at this Disney park in one single, perfect day!
Buc-ee’s has long been revered as the disneyland of gas stations. This travel hub has been recommended to us time and again by fellow road warriors in our circle, and when we set out for a sixteen hour drive to central Florida, we were sure to plan our first-ever visit to a Buc-ee’s location into our trip! So, what did we think? Was Buc-ee’s truly worth all the hype?
Each year brings new treats, sweets and savory food items to Hersheypark, and it’s become a tradition of ours to take a little stroll through our home park and pick up some of the new and interesting culinary creations to see what we think. This year, we also upgraded to the brand new Giant Size passholder tier, so we had a one-time fast track to use on any eligible ride as well as the new Giant Size lounge to check out!
20 minutes North of Philadelphia’s city center lies an entire world of strange and beautiful creatures and contraptions awaits the curious and the curiouser. Join us at Otherworld Philadelphia, an immersive art installation promising 40,000 square feet of more than 500,000 LED’s and 130 projectors across 55 rooms!
We recently made our glorious return to Water Country USA in Williamsburg, VA to see what was new and improved for the 2024 season! Naturally, we had to invest in Quick Queue so that we could make the most of our day. Join us for a wet and wild day as we take on Aquazoid Amped, Nitro Racer: Supercharged, Colossal Curl and so much more!
It’s become an annual tradition of ours to make our way to Busch Gardens Williamsburg at least once every summer towards the end of Food & Wine season to check out all the delectable dishes that the event offers! In our opinion, this is one of the best festivals at the park, because the variety of food and entertainment offerings increases exponentially! So, what’s new for 2024?
This year, we made our glorious return to Dorney Park, home of the new-for-2024 B&M dive coaster Iron Menace! The park’s latest addition is its first new coaster in almost twenty years, and stands at 160 feet with a 95-degree drop all but consuming the skyline. Naturally, a coaster of this make, scale and reputation drew coaster enthusiasts from all over the country, and we were proud to be among them!
When we made the decision to attend FanExpo Philadelphia, there were a number of headlining celebrities that we were excited to meet, and - consequently - we decided to budget for VIP weekend admission. At a staggering $449 per person, we made it our mission to determine whether or not the VIP Experience was worth the price!
