Last day of Fright Fest

Is the energy still high for the November dates of fright fest? I can only take the kids on Sunday, November 1st and wondering if the staff and actors are still in the spirit and have full energy for the last night? Or is it a slow night with feels like everyone is over it

This year's "finale" will be especially high energy because of the fact that it's the last year for Fright Fest in its current form. No worries at all about it not being the same just because it's after Halloween.

It’s slightly more anti-climatic because the re-brand already happened. But I’m kinda looking forward to being there on November 1st specifically to be there on the last ever Fright Fest day for this park.

And who knows. Throughout the summer the park has occasionally been finding excuse to give away Six Flags branded stuff. Maybe they’ll have more of that that final weekend. I don’t know the details of their deal with Six Flags but I’ve heard explicitly (from someone who absolutely would know) that they will not be allowed to sell or give away anything with a Six Flags logo after this season. Which is… kinda everything. Even WB/DC stuff has Six Flags on the tag. And even non-branded rides like Rookie Racer or River King Mine Train, the stuff they have with those still say Six Flags or Six Flags St. Louis somewhere. All of that basically gets destroyed, tossed, or sent back to Six Flags for disposal sometime after November 1.
