Tickets are already on sale for parties and scare zones including sold-out nights in August at Walt Disney World.
It may still be the middle of summer, but Halloween plans at Florida’s theme parks are already brewing, including sold-out nights in August for Disney World’s new Boo Bash.
Busch Gardens’ Howl-O-Scream will return earlier than ever and once again features haunted houses, unlike last year’s more limited open-air scares. It’s also bringing along a member of the family, SeaWorld Orlando, into the horror game.
And Universal Orlando, which scratched its plans for Halloween Horror Nights last year, already has tickets on sale. It will bring back the creepy Jack the Clown character and has revealed some haunted houses based on classic horror movies.
Universal aims for high-intensity scares, while Disney stresses that its Boo Bash is more family-friendly and fun. Busch Gardens and SeaWorld have elements of both. Both parks will continue their daytime, kid-friendly festivities, but the after-hours separate ticket for Howl-O-Scream is not recommended for children.
