Haunted Attractions
Here are the descriptions for each of the ScareGrounds three main attractions:
Forbidden Fortress

Slayers
Join the ranks as you step inside a secret organization of modern-day monster hunters. Traverse treacherous terrains and ancient realms while confronting unspeakable monstrosities and face the unknown. Test your courage, sharpen your skills and confront the most fearsome adversaries imaginable.
The Silver Scream

With your coveted silver ticket in hand, prepare to be thrust into the heart of a new chilling horror marathon. Encounter the most infamous villains of horror cinema unleashed from the silver screen.
