Playland's terrifying Fright Nights now open for Halloween season

Oct 7 2022, 7:18 pm

Fright Nights, one of western Canada’s scariest haunts, has returned to Vancouver for the Halloween season. And we can’t wait to visit the scream park!

The highly-anticipated Playland attraction is happening on select nights starting on October 7 and running through to Halloween night.

Visitors can experience the immersive Halloween-themed experience with seven haunted houses, 19 heart-pounding rides, spooky décor, roaming monsters, and thrilling live performances, and more!

Guests are invited to participate in the nightly Opening Scaremony at 6 pm, with all of the creepy cast members welcoming them inside the park entrance.

New to the Fright Nights this year is the brand-new Carnevil Scare Zone, featuring three exciting shows nightly including the Vancouver-based circus & sideshow collective, Caravan of Curiosities.

Haunted house connoisseurs won’t want to miss this year’s event as it’s the last chance to explore Hollywood Horrors, which is retiring at the end of this Halloween season.

Other spooky houses to explore with your Scooby crew include:

  • The Bloodshed
  • Darkness
  • Fear
  • Materia Medica
  • Keepers Doll Factory
  • Haunted Mansion

Fright Nights will continue to set daily attendance capacity limits in 2022, with date-specific tickets available for entry. Guests are encouraged to purchase advance tickets online as event nights have limited availability and may sell out.

Ticket buyers will also have the option to purchase an Early Access Pass, which includes an expedited line for park entry starting at 5 pm nightly and early access to Hollywood Horrors, Keepers Doll Factory, and Darkness haunted houses.
