Trip Report
Written By Amusement Source

Fright Fest 2019 is right around the corner at Six Flags Over Texas, beginning on Saturday, September 21. The event will feature three all-new, and three returning, haunted houses. Four scare zones will also make their return and a few of them are receiving new props and other enhancements! Below is a progress report on general park decor, the construction of the haunted houses, and progress on scare zones throughout the park.

We have also filmed an in-depth video that features many of the new additions and improvements coming to Fright Fest 2019, including the official confirmation of the park’s haunted house and scare zone line-up.

Visible construction is under way on Six Flags Over Texas' 2026 giga dive coaster addition as the parking lot is prepped for footers. Additional track and support pieces have also arrived. New refill stations, the re-debut of All American Cafe and other refreshes highlight our visit. Last year, our summer weekday visit to the park left a lot to be desired. This year, however, we were pleasantly surprised by our experiences.

Summer operations have begun at Six Flags Over Texas, but there's not much happening beyond riding rides. Renovations continue at the park's entrance with a front gate refresh. El Mercado de la Plaza has reopened with improved aesthetics and work moves on with the remodel of All American Cafe. Coaster track and supports for the to-be-named giga dive coaster have also arrived in the parking lot, along with new log flume boats for El Aserradero. We also discuss huge changes coming to Six Flags with the elimination of all park president positions.
