Busch Gardens Tampa reveals its 10 scare zones for Howl-O-Scream 2020

Busch Gardens Tampa has revealed its 10 scare zones for this year’s modified Howl-O-Scream event and will feature 4 new zones. The event will run every Friday through Sunday from September 25-November 1, 2020.

The scare zones are designed to scare safely, as Busch Gardens states the creative production team has consulted with medical experts to modify this year’s zone designs with a physical distancing focus, as well as enhanced health and safety measures.

The 4 new scare zones are:

Lycan Landing: It’s always a full moon at this campground and the park rangers can’t hear you scream. When the campfires burn out, will you escape the glowing eyes leering through the trees or will you share their cursed fate?

The Shortcut: Cutting through the cemetery may seem like an easy way out, except when the corpses rise from the ground to invite you into their graves.

The Junkyard: You’ll find more than spare parts as you explore this surly scrap site. Will you make it out in one piece or be devoured by the haunted rubble?

The Escape: In this treacherous realm, chaos reigns, and rules are made to be broken. The escaped inmates of Grey Echo Penitentiary seek their own twisted form of justice and they’re ready to deliver your sentence.

These four all-new scare zones join a collection of returning fan-favorites. The returning zones are:

First Fear: The icons of Howl-O-Scream’s haunted past are the first frights to greet you, rising from the dead and bringing over 20 years of fear back to life.

Little Nightmares: It’s all tricks and no treats down this dark and eerie street, but there’s no turning back now as childhood memories resurface with a horrifying twist.

Maniac Midway: Go backstage at “scariest show on earth” with Sparky and his terrifying carnie-crew as they take over Pantopia and make the midway their own stage of torture creating a frenzy of fear.

Deadly Toys: Your childhood play date is now a slay date as giant toys spring to life in a murderous rampage with you in their sights.

Hell on Wheels: In a post-apocalypse world, the surly survivors will stop at nothing for food and supplies, destroying all who stand in their way. Can you run the gauntlet of a murderous crazed biker gang to make it out alive?

Dia De Los Muertos: Honoring the souls and spirits of those who have gone before us, guests can dance the night away in this festive zone featuring a vibrant celebration of life and the traditional tastes of Mexico.

The complete list of frights, reservations, and more are available now at www.HowlOScream.com. Guests are strongly encouraged to make reservations early as reservations are required and space is limited each night.
