Six Flags over

Georgia can be a scary place with its myriad of rollercoasters and thrill

rides, including the new rides, Acrophobia and Deja Vu.

It is even

scarier now that it is the scene of Fright Fest, which enters its final

weekend this weekend.

Fright Fest

features characters in Halloween costumes and trick-or-treating throughout

the park, live shows, two new haunted houses and all of the attractions

that make Six Flags one of the top amusement parks in the country.

This year's

Fright Fest promises two new haunted houses, Fearman's Manor and The Carnival

of Chaos. Fearman's Manor features 16 rooms of the dead and undead and

the Carnival of Chaos is a black light extravaganza featuring spooky clowns

and freaks.

Admission to

the haunted houses is separate from general park admission. Admission

to Fearman's Manor is $8 and admission to the carnival of Chaos is $6.

Admission to both haunted houses is $13.

An attraction

aimed at younger children is the train ride through Spooky Town on the

Boo Line Express. The wilderness is haunted and inhabited by friendly

creatures. There is also the Monster Plantation ride, which is a leisurely

boat ride through a monster picnic.

Fright Fest

is open Fridays from 6-11 p.m., with the haunted houses open until midnight,

Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sundays from noon to 8 p.m. Admission

to the park is $41 and $20.50 for children under 48 inches.

Perhaps the

scariest thing about Fright Fest is that the end of another Six Flags

season is upon us and the park will be closed for months.
