Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream 2002

 

 

Busch Gardens' Howl-O-Scream event returns with one purpose: immerse guests in a startling landscape of fright over 15 haunting nights. The torment in Tampa Bay begins Friday, September 27 and culminates with the ultimate scream fest on November 2, 2002. Howl-O-Scream drifts brave souls though six haunted houses, four scare zones, adrenaline-loaded attractions and encounters with hundreds of ghouls and goblins. Featuring jaw-dropping special effects and eye-popping terror, the extreme haunted houses are Escape from Insanity, Ripper Row, Tortured, Demented Dimensions, Bloody Bayou and The Mortuary .

Fridays and Saturdays starting September 27th - November 2nd from 7:30PM 'til 2:00AM.
Thursdays October 17th, 24th and Halloween night October 31st from 7:30PM 'til 1:00AM.

Howl-O-Scream may be too intense for young children. Parental discretion is advised.


Ripper Row
A horrible black labyrinth… streets of rancid decay, walls slimy with ooze, this wretched alley has become home to robbers by day, murderers by night. Jack the Ripper leads them all, luring innocents in this dead end. We've all heard of him. We fear his legend. Now, come live his terror.

The Mortuary
Ring a-round the roses. A pocket full of posies. Ashes! Ashes! We all fall down! A harmless rhyme from childhood? Or the reality none of us can escape? It's really about dying, a song about death. Death leads to funerals, cremations and underground burials. And in the Mortuary, it all leads to YOU.

Escape from Insanity
The asylum is open. The inmates are back. The staff is ready and waiting. Come by for a visit. We’ve spruced up the place. We really, really, really want you to stay. Welcome to Sunny Meadows — there's always room for one more in the asylum. We'll leave the light on for you.

Bloody Bayou
The Bayou Clan has been waiting all year for more "talent" to cast in their homemade movies. They worship horror movies. They live and die by them. And you will, too. They want you to come. They need you to come. But steer clear if you know what's good for you. They mean to make you star in their nightmare versions of everyone's favorite cult classic horror movies.

Tortured
You’ve been invited to the party of the season. But who's the host, and what's behind that sliding wall? Curiosity killed the cat, but you won't have it that easy. Go behind the wall. Enter the darkness. Feel the coldness. Don't show your fear. Your mystery host wants you, and fear only makes it worse. You're just another victim, as easy to come by as a Halloween Party invitation. No R.S.V.P. necessary!

Demented Dimensions
An archeological expedition has unearthed another world — a place of alien creation buried deep within the fiery earth. Here you will be transported to places the mind could never conceive and your soul will always fear. Something is in here with you... You've entered Demented Dimensions.

Cursed
If there were another way around, you would take it. You can feel that this is a wicked place. It’s as if there is a wall of superstition and evil that you have to pass through just to enter the area. The air is thick with electricity, danger is near. Will you pass through untouched? Or enter at your own risk? It's hard to tell who will be CURSED.

The X-Ecutioners
This is a future where Bad is a way of life. The national pastime has become hunting, chasing, horrifying and maiming. This is a catastrophic world that has been overtaken by the X-treme. You will race for your very life while rogue hoodlums compete to see who can take you down first. They know X-actly what they want. They X-amine every possible move. Then they X-plode with the challenge of being the first to make you pay. Determined to fulfill their destiny, they are The X-ECUTIONERS! They're bad to the bone!

Grisly Gardens
Scary, Scary, quite contrary, my how the garden has GROWN! Evil's roots have spread and taken over every inch of this once peaceful ground. Now there's really NO ESCAPE — This forgotten garden has become a horrible breeding ground where once-majestic statues now spread fear and terror. Their eyes are watching you. Welcome to the Grisly Gardens... please don't pick the flowers!

Agony Express
As you approach the station, the lined-up travelers seem so eager to board the Express. Their faces glow in anticipation of the journey ahead. How naive they really are. Something in you stirs as you realize that things aren't quite right. Your instincts tell you to board, but you can't... the Loco-monsters have other plans for you!
