Four New Frightening Attractions Headline SCarowinds’ 25th Anniversary
SCarowinds is going Hollywood this fall with an all-new haunted attraction featuring The Conjuring Universe. Unlike any maze, The Conjuring: Beyond Fear is an all-new, interactive SCREAMium experience that invites guests to navigate iconic scenes from New Line Cinema’s blockbuster horror franchise as they work to lock away cursed artifacts before supernatural chaos is unleased.
Guests will encounter legendary entities such as The Nun, The Crooked Man, and The Ferryman as they race to restore order and lock Annabelle back in her secure box—or risk catastrophic consequences for the living realm. With state-of-the-art effects, screen-to-scream environments, and a series of chilling interactive challenges in an experience spanning more than twenty minutes, The Conjuring: Beyond Fear plunges guests deeper than ever before into The Conjuring Universe.
“The Conjuring: Beyond Fear is the biggest and boldest haunted attraction to open at SCarowinds,” said Brian Oerding, park manager and vice president. “Guests will be immersed into cinematic nightmares like never before, welcoming a new era of fear and next-level experiences for our guests.”
The Conjuring: Beyond Fear will open in Carowinds’ Aeronautica Landing Theatre, a nearly 3,600 square-foot venue in the Aeronautica section of the park. It is recommended for guests aged 13 and up; parental discretion is strongly encouraged.
