Six Flags Magic Mountain in California is adding two new mazes based on James Wan‘s horror franchises to its 30th edition of Fright Fest.
From 8 September through 31 October, guests at Six Flags Magic Mountain will get to experience new mazes inspired by Saw X and The Conjuring.
Saw X is an upcoming horror film directed by Kevin Greutert. It is the 10th instalment in the film franchise and is set between the events of Saw (2004) and Saw II (2005). The former is directed by Wan.
The description for the Saw X maze is as follows: “Experience the return of Jigsaw as you attempt to survive his ingenious and terrifying traps in the untold chapter of his most personal game yet, inspired by the upcoming release from Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures, Saw X.”
The Conjuring (2013) is a supernatural horror film directed by Wan. The description for this Fright Fest maze reads: “Dare to enter the secluded farmhouse of the Perron family that has been terrorized and plagued by sinister spirits. Inspired by the 2013 film The Conjuring.”
