TAMPA, Fla. (July 15, 2021) – Creeping closer each day, Howl-O-Scream returns to Busch Gardens Tampa Bay with a hair-raising, skin-crawling celebration of ghoulish delights beginning September 10 through October 31 for 28 select nights. While family-friendly trick-or-treating and shows fill fall days with fun, by night five horrifying haunted houses, eight expansive scare zones and unpredictable hordes of nightmarish creatures will soon cover the 300-acre park, leaving nowhere for guests to hide.

As a sinister surprise, the park has revealed the first of THREE ALL-NEW haunted houses opening for the season on the Howl-O-Scream social media channels. Just beyond the twists and turns of Tigris, fear fans will enter the underground vampire realm of “The Forgotten.”

ALL-NEW Haunted House: “The Forgotten”
Victims will be drawn into a hidden world beyond the rubble and rocks of an unsuspecting quarry, where dark secrets lurk in the shadows. Just beyond a hidden gutter entrance, the legend of the human uprising is revealed as a swarm of starving vampires plot their imminent revenge. Will those who enter return to the world of the living or are they destined to become the newest minion of the Forgotten army?
