🎃 Slash Sale Tickets Only $39

Fall fun starts now! Save on tickets before the deal disappears Thursday.

Promotional banner for the SCarowinds presented by Snickers "Slash Sale" set against a hazy nighttime roller coaster backdrop. Bold, textured "SLASH SALE" text sits over a large red blood splatter in the center, advertising tickets for $39 (plus processing fees and taxes, online only). On the left, yellow text urges "HURRY! SALE ENDS 9/17" directly above a red "BUY NOW" button. On the right, a menacing scare actor with pale skin, eerie eyes, a stitched leather half-mask, and goggles stares directly at the viewer.

What would you like to do today?

A group of park guests recoil in fear as two costumed monsters—a wicked witch in a furry cloak and a ringmaster in a top hat—loom over them under dramatic blue lighting and fog.

    Select Nights, Sept. 11 - Nov. 1, 2026

    This fall, SCarowinds leaves no tomb unearthed, no crypt unrattled, and no fear untouched as pulse-pounding rides, sinister shows, and legendary horror franchises collide. Step directly into cinematic terror with two immersive mazes: Jason: Blood Reign, where you’ll retrace the blood-soaked origin of horror's most feared slasher in the Friday the 13th universe, and The Conjuring: Beyond Fear, an investigation into New Line Cinema’s The Conjuring Universe where you must contain cursed artifacts and face malevolent entities like Annabelle before dark forces consume the living realm.
