I was beyond excited to get to experience this event myself as part of the  Haunted Attraction Network. Philip let me out of my newsletter writing-only cage to get a little monster R&RIP at Scream Break 2023. 

I started the evening with some delicious BBQ Brisket Mac & Cheese. To drink, I had the event’s signature cocktail, “Skulls on the Beach” (but as a mocktail version for me). Then it was out into the night for mazes & scarezones!

We first walked through “Vault 666: The Initiation”. Through some clever negotiations on my part, we made it out alive and successfully joined Sigma Phi Mu Mu (Six Flags Magic Mountain). Then we were off to one hell of a frat party at “Condemned: House Party”. Afterwards we mixed and mingled with the spring break monsters. 

Next, we walked through a sinister soiree at Bloodborne Hollow. The area’s denizens were half-human, half-animal – but all terrifying! The chandeliers along the pathway indicated that we had made our way over to the  classy area of town. Much nicer than the dilapitated old house of the frat area.

Finally, we ended the evening with a [G]RAVE at the Dead Man’s Party area in the DC Universe. I had a blast busting out my best dance moves to the DJ’s rocking beats. Not too shabby of a night out for this ghoul!

Scream Break was a great twist on some classic Fright Fest attractions. It certainly satisfied my need for Halloween halfway through the year. I look forward to seeing how this event grows in future years.
