A familiar chill will be descending upon Carowinds when SCarowinds returns this fall with all-new scares that will bring guests’ worst nightmares and unimaginable horrors to life. This year, guests will come face to face with their fears – and up to 300 monsters nightly – as they brave the park’s 16 tantalizing experiences, including seven spine-chilling scare zones, five mazes, and four ominous shows.

SCarowinds returns for 19 terrifying nights from Friday, September 16 to Sunday, October 30.

So what is new? SCarowinds will take visitors on a frightening journey through Paranormal Inc., a new maze offering interactive storylines, branching paths, and aerial stunts as visitors team up with the ghostbusting heroes from the fictional television show of the same name. Only the bravest will venture inside the Hayden Hill Sanitarium to investigate where patients have been tortured for decades by deranged doctors. The evil medical staff prowls the halls looking for new patients, and the demonic spirits of their victims haunt the sanitarium.

All-new scare zones will taunt and torment guests as they navigate the darkness from one terrifying maze to the next, including The Harlequin Club, where guests enter the world of a twisted traveling troupe of cringeworthy circus folk and sinister sideshow acts, and Tricksters, where guests do not want to knock on any of the doors on this street. In addition to the debut of Paranormal Inc., SCarowinds will unveil a gruesome lineup of new shows including Heads Will Roll, The Lost Souls, and The Mane Stage. This is what you can expect this year.
