Six Flags Bugs Out for Fright Fest

Tuesday September 19, 2006
Fear is a big part of Six Flags' appeal. Ultimately, it's all about fun. But that sense of apprehension we get when we stare up at one of Six Flags' diabolical roller coasters, and the feeling of mastery we experience when we disembark one of the beasts fulfills some primal urge lurking deep within our psyches. The Six Flags parks provide safe havens for us to conquer our demons. And at Halloween time, the Fright Fest events at Six Flags parks give us even more demons--and this year, cockroaches--to conquer. Yep, you read that right. In addition to the usual suspects--demons, ghouls, zombies, and the like--Six Flags is upping the ante by introducing live, hissing cockroaches at its Fright Fest events this season. Get the lowdown on all the dates, haunted houses, shows, rides, and cockroaches coming to a park near you by clicking over to the Six Flags 2006 Fright Fest Guide.
