Six Flags Fright Fest
Six Flags created Fright Fest after testing Halloween-based events through the 1970s at some of its parks. In 1989 Fright Fest was born at Six Flags Over Texas and expanded to all of its parks soon after. The events featured haunted houses, a trick or treat trail for kids, and more. One of the major additions was in 1999 when Six Flags licensed and opened some of their haunted houses as Alice Cooper's Brutal Planet, featuring music from the album and using similar elements in each house. Though Alice Cooper's name has been dropped, many of the Six Flags haunted houses still use the Brutal Planet name.

Famous quotes containing the words flags and/or fright:
“Still, it is dear defiance now to carry
Fair flags of you above my indignation,”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“Twenty-two weeks the men were out as the strike moved into winter. It was strange to go out into the street and find the men there in the daytime. It had a feeling of fright in it. And always the mood of the men grew uglier as empty bellies and desperation began to conquer reason. Any man who was not their friend became their enemy. They knew my father had opposed the strike, and now it was they who opposed him.”
—Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
