1:13
Six Flags Fright Fest 30th anniversary
1:16
of two bikes for each of
1:18
us 30 years there's a lot of hauns that
1:20
have anniversaries this year I know it's
1:22
a big year I'm
1:24
excited the sun will be setting and the
1:26
creatures of the night will soon be
1:28
appearing we're going in 30 years of
1:31
Fright Fest I think I've been to five of
1:33
them so for me it's like five but it's
1:36
been going on for 30 so according to
1:38
this you're not allowed to have selfie
1:40
sticks and no red wagons allowed inside
1:43
and no no food either but yeah no no red
1:47
wagons no radio fers now there was not a
1:50
lot of info online on when the event
1:52
started so we're just kind of guessing
1:54
there's going to be an opening scaremony
1:56
at 700 p.m. that's kind of where we're
1:58
basing it on how last year was you see
2:01
the sun is starting to kind of set and
2:03
two of The Mazes they announced at
2:05
Midsummer scream two of the IPS are not
2:08
opening on opening night for the 30th
2:11
Anniversary there's still going to be a
2:12
lot of houses and a lot of Mazes and
2:13
scare zones but the two that I was kind
2:16
of looking forward to aren't going to be
2:17
open on opening night sad trumbone all
2:20
right walking in I'm looking at the sign
2:22
here it kind of has a general layout of
2:24
the land and it does in fact say
2:25
frightfest begins at 7:00 p.m. so we're
2:27
just going to assume that the opening
2:28
ceremony is going to be at 700 p.m.
2:31
Fright Fest begins at 7:00 p.m. and we
2:33
will show no mercy oh yeah Fright Fest

5:57
with a little fright the coaster is
5:59
stuck at the Pinnacle up there there's a
6:01
bunch of guests on the rid they're
6:02
already stuck at the top of the ride up
6:04
there maybe they're going to get a good
6:05
view of the scar from up there little
6:08
bird's eye
6:14
perspective I love the Shan link over
6:14
here protecting the audio Engineers oh
6:18
there it goes it's dropping in it's
6:20
dropping in it was just a for effect woo
6:23
straight down so the ghouls cannot get
6:25
past over there they got that chain link
6:27

6:41
off and the creatures are coming out
6:44
opening 30th anniversary of six P
6:46
frightfest Magic Mountain it's
6:54
happening I love this event I think this
6:55
is my fourth or fifth year I don't don't
6:56
hold me to how many years it's been but
6:58
I've been here a few years
7:00
and it's it's always a good time I think
7:02
the scare the Maes are pretty good but I
7:04
think the scare zones are probably my
7:06
favorite of all this especially the
7:08
opening when all the sliders come
7:09
through the clowns come through the
7:11
ghoulish creatures of the night all
7:13
making their appearance through the DC
7:15
Universe Area as The Coasters go by
7:18
everyone is lined up and they start
7:19
making their way down the main area
7:22
through the DC Universe I feel like
7:25
something dramatic is about to happen
7:27
right now right now
8:47
the thing that makes this extra awesome
8:48
is the weather feels great out here I
8:50
know it feels amazing out this is so
8:52
cool starting off in the scare Zone and
8:54
then we're going to go do some mazes or
8:56

1849 chicken strips spiced in tossed in
23:40
spicy Sriracha buffalo sauce one thing
23:43
about any kind of haunt event they just
23:46
throw hot stuff on it so evidently that
23:48
makes it scary it's more horrifying when
23:51
it's got a little spicy flavor on also
23:53
Fireballs graveyard pudding I do believe
23:57
well there it goes I think I'm going to
23:59

24:41
too late to be eating something this

36:24
to say this is probably the most unusual
36:26
opening night of Six Flag Fright Fest
36:28
that I have been to probably since my
36:30
first one which I think was in 2016 17
36:33
18ish since then they've been very very
36:35
busy on opening nights tonight not very
36:37
busy and a little slightly
36:40
unusual very unusual to say the least
36:44
still awesome different than years past
36:47
different than the last few years that
36:48
I've attended on the way out this is
36:50
where the Real Horror begins
36:53
Bubbles and
36:55
bananas right there appealing it's very
36:58
what it's very appealing it's very
37:01
appealing and that's going to do it for
37:03
today from Six Flags opening night
37:06
interesting opening night also the two
37:08
