The Ultimate Guide to Halloween Haunt in 2024

Halloween Haunt returns to Canada’s Wonderland this fall with a sinister transformation, turning the theme park into a scream park filled with Halloween attractions that offer unforgettable thrills and unspeakable horror.

On select nights, Sept. 27 to Nov. 2, you can immerse yourself in the nightmare of Haunt, a Halloween event where the streets are filled with terror, including hundreds of monsters, spooky mazes, terrifying scare zones, ghoulish street performers, live music, thrilling night rides, and electrifying live shows.

Tickets are available here, or consider getting a 2025 Gold Pass that gets you unlimited Haunt (and WinterFest), this year, and all four seasons next year! Pays for itself in just TWO visits... 

Sinister Mazes to Navigate

• NEW - Demons of the Deep:  Plunge into the abyss where a deserted marine lab conceals the terrifying results of twisted experiments. Navigate flooded passages and eerie underwater scenes as you encounter the nightmarish results of science gone wrong. 
• Dark Ride - The Maze: An abandoned carnival ride sits dark and in ruin, its time of amusement long dead. Unbeknownst to curious visitors, the long-neglected attraction now houses a sinister world of terror created by outcast carnival workers and performers. Explore this Dark Ride at your own peril, for the freaks wait within with wicked smiles and treacherous plans. 
• Spirit Manor: Beware of the cursed mansion set high on a hill, up a winding lane. Towering over all its visitors, the crumbling manor bears no resemblance to the grand abode it once was. Everywhere you turn, demons lurk in the darkness, searching for their next victim.
• Cornstalkers: Old man Howell’s farm drew thousands each fall to visit his elaborate corn maze. Within the twisting aisles and dead-ends, families laughed and explored under the golden autumn sun, scarecrows watching over the activities from their perch between the corn rows. Every morning he would open the gates to waiting visitors, allowing them to wander his maze at their leisure; his only rule was to be out by dusk.  That is, until some teens snuck in after dark. When their bodies were found, the parents and townspeople accused Howell of the murder. A legend grew that the land was haunted and what was once a beloved yearly tradition, became a collective nightmare. 
• The Crypt:  Extending below the bustling streets of the city are the catacombs housing the remains of more than six million people. Disinterred from cemeteries and discarded in an unused mine at a time when cemetery space was limited, the remains have been forgotten and have become merely decoration in a growing tourist attraction.
• The Ruins: Centuries ago, world-renowned archaeologist Dr. Carver gathered an adventurous team to uncover ruins that had not seen human contact in thousands of years. Shrouded in mystery, the adventurers knew the dangers they faced but had no idea just how deadly a mission they had embarked upon. To this day, no one knows exactly what they found when they entered those long-forgotten tombs, but legends of massacre and evil curses still remain. Some say Dr. Carver encountered devilish creatures lurking in the shadows, waiting for new victims to torture for all eternity.

Terrifying Scare Zones

• Necropolis: Step into Necropolis and enter the underworld where the dead wait to terrorize the living. Ancient mausoleums, labyrinthine passages and dark tombs conceal the guardians of this deathly place. Don’t linger too long… they may select you to join their ghostly ranks.
• Trick or Treat Street: The most twisted Halloween Street party has come to town and you’re invited. Expect deranged decor, eerie party guests and ghoulish games. We’re sure you’ll have a diabolically haunted time.
• CarnEvil: The carnival has come to town, and mayhem reigns, as the freak show characters, carnival performers and wicked clowns scour the streets beckoning you to join in on the fun. Amused by fear, these twisted performers feed off the terror of passersby. Beware, if you make eye contact, you just might fall for this act.
• Gates of Terror: You’ve arrived at Halloween Haunt, but you must pass through the Gates of Terror to reach your final destination. Beware the monsters lurking in the night. They feast on humans and search for souls who dare to enter their haunting grounds. Watch your back, because there is always a reason to be scared of the dark.
• Kingdom Of Carnage: A wicked king has ruled over these lands with fear and violence for too long. The peasants have formed a militia and are staging a siege upon the castle in a desperate act to end the brutal tyranny. It’s a bloody, endless fight with many lives lost on both sides. Just as the advancing villagers begin to gain ground, the king and his forces unleash an evil terror sourced from dark magic that threatens to consume everyone and everything in its path. Do you run, or join the battle for freedom?
• Streets of the Undead: In the wake of a zombie apocalypse, survivors are faced with a grim choice: either turn back to again face the nightmares of the park or push ahead and try to reach the Safe Zone.  Reaching the thrills beyond won’t be easy however as the tangled mess of rubble and barricades that once kept these zombies out now keeps them trapped inside the haunted Halloween attractions of the Streets of the Undead!
• Wicked Hollow: Beyond Wonder Mountain there once was an enchanted forest, home to benevolent fairies and mystical creatures who lived peaceful, simple lives. Then a dark curse overtook the land and its inhabitants. The fairies became evil, noxious, spell-wielding fairies that loved nothing more than to torture unsuspecting travelers with their magic and haunted activities. Beware if you step into the Wicked Hollow, for the evil fairies lie in wait…
