September 26, 201312 yr I am going to Halloween Haunt this weekend and I was just wondering which day is the best day to go
September 26, 201312 yr Fridays are the best for the haunt. Sundays the park is usually pretty empty but you cant do the mazes.
September 26, 201312 yr I'm considering heading up there this Friday evening (tomorrow) or Sunday. As I understand it, the mazes are open on Sunday, but outdoor scare zones are not. (I've never been to HalloWeekends.) EDIT: According to the HalloWeekends website, mazes open at 8pm on Friday ('til midnight), 5pm on Saturday ('til midnight), and 3pm on Sunday ('til 8pm).
September 26, 201312 yr Fri sat everything open, sun just the houses...no zones Fri is great. I stick to haunts Fri, sat rides, sun rides
September 26, 201312 yr I skip Saturdays, it's always way to crowded when I go during haunt. Fridays or Sundays are far less crowded.
September 26, 201312 yr I truly believe Haunt/Fright Fest Saturdays are worse than summer Saturdays. I once went to Fright Fest at Great Advencha on a Saturday. Had to park in the overflow lot for Hurricane Bay. All lines for houses and rides were three hours, minimum. The park was packed. Ladies' restroom lines were over an hour. Never again.
September 27, 201312 yr The Sunday before Columbus Day (October 13 this year) would also be a Sunday to avoid at Cedar Point and Great Adventure. Notice the extended operating hours at Cedar Point that day (open til 10 instead of 8).
September 27, 201312 yr Columbus Day weekend..avoid it like the plague.. Now I hate to be that guy, but I won't divuldge the certain days that are usually perfect as when people start saying things like "hey use the resort gate, ect. the secrets get lost. I remember in '10 & '11..That gate was barely packed and a very small running of the bulls and very easily able to ride Maverick/Millie 3 times or so...Now..that gate does get crowded, even the Marina gate now too.. I will say this though....Fri, get your marathoning in, Saturday do small stuff or things people don't normally go for (tiques, waveswinger, CCMR, gemini, ect..Get in line for the haunts early, and do the walkthroughs outside. Sunday just do haunts, ride this and that but haunts you can marathon easily
September 29, 201312 yr Friday for sure. After spending two days in the park for Fall Freak Out, there were a lot less people in the park on Friday than today (Saturday)
