GURNEE, Ill. (CBS 58) -- Fright Fest is back at Six Flags Great America. It runs select days, now through Nov. 2.

No one is safe from being spooked as you walk through seven scare zones to get to rides. There are also five haunted mazes this year that include some popular horror movie themes like It, Saw and The Conjuring. 

This is the 34th annual Fright Fest. It's recommended for ages 13 and up after 6 p.m. If you're looking for something a little more family friendly, Boo Fest takes place during the day and gives you spooky fall fun for the whole family. 


Tickets are available online for Fright Fest.
