AUSTELL, Ga. — Halloween is almost here and there's no shortage of events around the Atlanta area to celebrate.
Two hundred monsters, creatures, zombies and asylum escapees await your presence at Fright Fest. Six Flags Over Georgia hosts the annual event. This year marks the largest one in the company's history.
"This year, we are turning up the scare factor of Fright Fest to provide our guests with the largest and best Halloween experience in the region," said Six Flags park President Dale Kaetzel. "Our guests told us they wanted more reasons to scream and the new attractions, along with our returning favorites, leave no tombstone unturned."
There are five scare zones, five Halloween-related shows and seven haunted attractions at Fright Fest. The attractions do require an extra fee. The scare zones and shows are included with the price of admission.

New attractions this year include ZX-1, a new haunted attraction, featuring a deadly infection that is rapidly wiping out mankind. An antibiotic has been developed by a local company, but will you get it before the infection gets you?
Hidden Horrors, a new scare zone, will leave guests wishing they had eyes in the backs of their heads to watch the monsters stalking from behind in the fog and darkness.
Cemetery of the Undead, a new scare zone, features the spirits of the dead roaming the grounds of the cemetery for eternity.
A new live show, The Uprising, where hundreds of bloodthirsty monsters are released into the dark of night, signals the beginning of the scary part of Fright Fest each night.
During the day, the park is filled with tamer Thrills by Day Halloween activities for families to enjoy together, including a new corn maze, a harvest festival, arts and crafts, pumpkin painting and spooky stories.
Fright Fest is open Friday, Saturday and Sundays now through Nov. 2.
