You Can Get Lost In This New Stranger Things Maze In California This Halloween
Don’t keep this curiosity door locked! You can get lost in this new Stranger Things maze in California this Halloween. Come and live out your fan-fiction dreams!
After binge-watching all three seasons of the Netflix hit, it’s time to live the experience yourself. This awesome new haunted Stranger Things maze will make you feel like you’re right in the middle of 1980s Hawkins. Don’t get too comfortable just yet though. Demogorgons could be lurking around in your favorite arcade!
General admission tickets range from $64-$97 and will give you access to the Hollywood theme park and its Halloween Horror Nights attractions, which start at 7 pm and run now through November 2. Make sure to plan your visit in advance because your ticket is only valid on the day it is purchased.
The whole park is decked out in everything fall and Halloween themed. Think pumpkins, giant spider webs, and hidden monsters waiting to chase you throughout the park. If you’re looking for a good fright fest, this is the place to be. Last year’s Stranger Things maze was truly amazing, this one could even better!
The all-new maze is based on seasons 2 and 3 of the show. According to Universal Studios, this time, you’ll go deeper than ever before into the inter-dimensional world of the Upside Down and try your best to find your way out.
Could somebody look for Hopper while you’re down there? We’re still not totally convinced he’s dead, tbh.
You’ll also walk through eerie locations from the show like the Christmas-lights-covered Beyers’ house and the dark, dense woods. Try to stay out of the Mind Flayer’s sight! This is your chance to get up close and personal to all things spooky and inter-dimensional. For fans of the show, there’s nothing quite like this immersive experience.
With your ticket, you’ll also get access to the park’s other spooky haunts and attractions. Other popular attractions include the all-new Ghostbusters maze, The Walking Dead attraction, and of course, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. This Halloween fright-fest is one you won’t soon forget!
