The past few weeks I have been on vacation, and have failed to keep the site updated, so we're going to do an all around update on everything going on in the Cedar Fair Haunt industry!
One little bit I noticed right off the bat was that at Valleyfair in Minnesota, a new Haunt was announced at their recent Coaster Craze event. The new Haunt, Camp Wekilou, will actually extend outside of the park boundaries, and go into Picnic Cove, their enormous picnic area, making this Valleyscare's biggest haunted attraction yet.
Heading south, at Coasting For Kids, a charity event to raise money for the Give Kids the World Village in Florida, Worlds of Fun announced that they are receiving a new London Terror Haunt. However, despite the announcement, we're unsure whether it is a zone replacement (which in that case, it would replace Dominion of Doom), or a new Haunt. Stay tuned!
Dorney Park hasn't released much info regarding any new Haunts, however, after a little bit of digging, we found that on Newsplusnotes, there was a leak regarding a possible new Haunt location. No theme or rumors have been released, so we'll have to keep our ears and eyes peeled to see what's going on in Pennsylvania.
Canada's Wonderland is one of the few parks where we haven't heard anything regarding any new Haunts this year. The other park that we haven't heard much about is California's Great America. If anyone has any leads on what might be coming to CW or CGA, feel free to leave us a comment!
A unique rumor/news bit that we found out about a while ago regarded a new Haunt at Scarowinds. What makes the rumor unique? Well, nobody knows what the new Haunt is, and apparently, it's staying that way until the Haunt's Opening Night. Rumor has it, it might be some sort of lab theme, but that's all we've heard, and that's not a very strong rumor to begin with. We'll have to watch out for what Carowinds has up their sleeve!
Cedar Point has released information for their popular BooBuzz event, which includes a tour of their new Haunted Trail. Yep, you read that right, a new Haunted Trail? What does Halloweekends have in common with Scarowinds? Neither park has released what their new Haunt is yet. We are eagerly awaiting the release of the Haunt websites for all CF parks. This should be an interesting & creative Haunt season!
Kings Island has yet to release any information regarding any new Haunts for this year, however, they have posted a pretty funny Youtube video regarding the information about their Job Scare.
As if that wasn't cool enough, there is talk of a Toy or Doll Factory being added to Kings Island, as well as some major improvements/modifications to Wolf Pack. However, the Doll/Toy Factory rumor was around last year too, so who knows what could happen. They also announced on their Twitter that 2 new mazes will be added to this year's event.
Kings Dominion in Virginia has been awfully quiet, although they did confirm that their Haunt will include one more maze and one more zone that the previous year's event.
New Haunts a plenty all over the Cedar Fair chain! We'll have to keep our eyes & ears open for any other news and rumors about. Again, feel free to comment with any tips, leads, etc.
Happy Haunting!

California's Great America's website is up. While there is nothing new added yet, the site does seem unfinished so far, so there may be some hope for a new maze.
