Kings Dominion Photo Kings Dominion |
September 3, 2025

It is once again that time of year when darkness falls on Kings Dominion and the things that go bump in the night come out to play. Halloween Haunt presented by SNICKERS® is back and better than ever this year! This year’s Fright Guide will help you plan your visit so that you can escape alive while having a fun time.   

NEW in 2025: Haunted Attractions Pass 

Guests will need to purchase a Haunted Attractions Pass if they wish to access Halloween Haunt presented by SNICKERS®' Haunted Mazes. Access to Halloween Haunt presented by SNICKERS®' Haunted Mazes is not included in park admission. 

Updated Chaperone Policy   

All guests 17 years of age or younger must be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old to be admitted into Kings Dominion and to remain in the park during designated times.  

Policy Details:  

  • Policy begins at 2:00 PM each day (all day on 9/20)
  • A valid government-issued photo ID with date of birth is required for all chaperones at entry.  
  • One (1) chaperone may accompany no more than ten (10) guests aged 17 or younger.  

Please note the chaperone policy is subject to change prior to the event. 

Mazes 

Halloween Haunt presented by SNICKERS® offers six terrifying mazes that’ll push your limits of fear. Blood on the Bayou, Trick or Treat presented by SNICKERS®, F.E.A.R. presented by SKITTLES®, MonsterCon presented by M&M'S®, GrimmWoods, and CornStalkers: Blood Harvest will be ready to haunt your socks off. These are separate attractions that guests must wait in line for, just like any ride. Haunted Mazes are premier attractions not included with admission. For access, purchase a Haunted Attractions Pass. 

Scare Zones 

Our midways are where our monsters love to play games with our guests. Roam at your will in our five scare zone areas such as Pumpkin Eater (Old Virginia), Masquerade (Old Virginia Arbor), Site X (Jungle X), The Catacombs (NEW - Center Street), and Cleaver Brothers Carnival (Candy Apple Grove Midway). You never know, you might just make a friend or two.  

Nighttime Rides 

Take your thrills to the next level with nighttime rides during Kings Dominion’s Halloween Haunt presented by SNICKERS®. It’s no wonder the park is world-renowned for moonlit thrills caught on rides like Pantherian, Rapterra, Dominator, and more. Please note that Planet Snoopy attractions close at 6 PM each night and will not operate during Halloween Haunt. View the list of operating rides and attractions. 

Shows 

Halloween Haunt wouldn’t be complete without a collection of sinister showstoppers, would it? The festivities kick off every night at 7 PM with the show Blood Reign, that calls the monsters forth from their hiding places. Over in Cleaver Brothers Carnival, the Big Top Band and Black Widow Burlesque shows are movin’ and groovin’ the rest of the night. New on the Grande Bandstand this year is Terror Rising, where you’ll feel the pulse of pure metal mayhem as our band and fierce dancers ignite the stage in a high-energy spectacle of sound, lights, and fear. Be sure to check latest showtimes on the Kings Dominion Mobile App. 

Specialty Fall Food 

Our culinary team has crafted specialized foods and specialty adult beverages to enhance your immersive experience during Halloween Haunt presented by SNICKERS®. These new, limited-time menu offerings showcase the rich flavors of fall and the playful spirit of the spooky season. Visit our fall foodie blog for the full menu. 

Interactive Lantern 

Hidden secrets await you in the fog. Our specialty interactive lantern feeds on the energy of a thousand fears – and when brought within the proximity of cursed locations, it reacts in strange & unpredictable ways. You can even bring them inside the mazes to light your way through the darkness. Take your Haunt experience into the next dimension and purchase your interactive lantern now. Limited quantity available.  

No Boo 

If you love the spooky fall atmosphere of Halloween Haunt presented by SNICKERS® but don’t like to be scared by our monsters, we have No Boo necklaces available for purchase at the front gate. Wearing these tells our monsters not to mess with you. However, these will not work in scare mazes. You can purchase these before you visit and pick them up the night of.   

Skip the Lines 

Fast Lane is available for purchase for those who want to bypass the regular ride lines, including Pantherian, Rapterra, and more. A Haunted Attractions Express Pass is also available to get right to the scaring in our six terrifying haunted mazes. 

Be sure to download the Kings Dominion Mobile App for an interactive map of rides, haunted attractions, and dining locations, as well as ride wait times and showtimes. You can also digitally store your season pass for quick and easy access.
