Guests will endure torturous trials and come face to face with some of John Kramer’s most diabolical contraptions before time runs out.Sneak peek of Vecna, the fourth season of Stranger Things’ main villain and antagonist. Photo by Isaiah Singleton/The Atlanta VoiceStranger Things: The students of Hawkins High decide to team up to create a little innocent Halloween fun for their community – but things quickly turn upside down and morph into something far darker.The Atlanta Voice took a tour of both new attractions and neither disappointed.In the Stranger Things maze, it took you through various points and moments within the show. At every turn, there was a new scary action and jump scare. There are moments throughout where you feel like you’re a part of the show and reliving scenes. One of the favorite parts was the entire atmosphere putting you back into the show while we wait for the fifth and final season to come out soon.In the SAW attraction, it’s very reminiscent of the franchise and truly felt chilling and a little haunting. It was an experience because throughout the maze, you heard screams, evil laughter, and more. It was very enjoyable to walk in this terrifying maze trying to get out alive. Head of Marketing, Dedra Brown (above) said the 30-year celebration of Fright Fest is “super exciting”. One of her favorite parts about Fright Fest is the jump scares as she describes it as fun, but actually, doesn’t like to be scared. Photo by Isaiah Singleton/The Atlanta VoiceHead of Marketing, Dedra Brown said the 30-year celebration of Fright Fest is “super exciting”.“I’ve been here many, many years and this is our 30th anniversary, and the great thing about it this year, we’re able to partner with two iconic attractions/mazes here at the park, which are Stranger Things and SAW,” she said. “We were able to partner with Netflix to bring a ‘Stranger Things’ maze and Lionsgate/Twisted Pictures for SAW, and the great thing about that is they’re celebrating 20 years.”She also said partnering with these production teams helps attract something new to the park and “adds more layers to our levels”. There are mazes, shows, scare zones, and even a space for people who may not necessarily like the spookiness of Fright Fest called “Boo Fest”, which is a safe space for kids and anyone else.Starting at Six Flags when she was only 16 years old and an Atlanta native, Brown said her favorite part about Fright Fest, even though she said she’s a “scaredy cat”,  is the jump scares and shows.“I don’t like the jump scares, but it’s so fun. I’m also really into the shows and anything new, so like bringing Stranger Things to the park is something I was overly excited about because being from Atlanta, I take pride in anything that’s done right here in the city, so having the show shot here in Georgia is amazing.Additionally, Fright Fest isn’t the only event that’s happening with the Oktoberfest Food Festival lasting until November 3 on Saturdays and Sundays.Fright Fest at Six Flags Over Georgia is happening select nights through November 3.
