“It seems only fitting that after 31 years of terrorizing well over 1 million patrons, we will open our doors one last time on Friday the 13th,” he said in a press release, “I am hanging up my haunt hat for good and retiring.”
The 4.5-acre Scream Park includes attractions such as The Swamp, The Edge of Darkness and Jake’s Slaughterhouse.
