I already see issues with this list..

- No dolphin or tiger shows?
- No Hypnosteria at night? Oh wait, it's listed under Day still ok. WHEW.
- No Professor Slithers?

From Denny More's website:

Quote
For the 11th consecutive year,
Denny More's HYPNOSTERIA
returns the 1,200-seat Showcase Theater
for 'FrightFest' at Six Flags Great Adventure
 in Jackson, New Jersey every weekend in October.

Three shows on Saturday
Two shows on Sunday
Denny More will be in Starring in EVERY show.

(Emphasis is from the original site).

It's kind of hard to have Elvira without a motion theater.

It makes me sad that the SFMM Fright Fest sounds so much more interesting. Oh and wait - actually ADDED things this year!

Here's a link about it.

The only hope I have is that since the Fright Fest events haven't been officially 'announced' yet (as far as I know? I haven't seen anything in the APP) that they may add more.

I saw over on Great Adventure History that someone linked a schedule guide from this weekend that shows a Tiger show listed for Fright Fest, as well as Professor Slithers, and something called The island of Doctor Moron, so there are newer things than what's on the website, apparently.

Follow this link to see the guide.
