PHOENIX, Ariz., (August 14, 2023) — A Valley Halloween favorite, Scarizona Scaregrounds is ready to welcome back locals to their frightening and fun annual attraction. Officially opening on Friday, October 6 and continuing through Halloween, Scarizona features two haunted attractions and is recommended for those ages 12 and up. Thrills and chills not your speed? Scarizona is also featuring a Halloween-themed Drive Thru light show, Frights in the Lights, a separate mile long drive through event intended for families with young children and kids of all ages.
All of this takes place at the Scarizona Scaregrounds, located at 1901 N. Alma School Road in Mesa. Prices for the haunted house events start at $24.95 per person. Prices for the drive through light show starting at $24.95 per car. Advance tickets are on sale now at scarizona.com and at frightsinthelights.com. Tickets will also be available at the gate.
“Scarizona has been a Valley Halloween mainstay for years, and we’re happy to be back this fall to continue that tradition,” said Allen Thompson, owner and operator of Scarizona Scaregrounds. “For families who prefer less scare and more fun, we are also home to Fright in the Lights, a one-mile Halloween-themed drive through light show. Both events will get you in the Halloween spirit.”
Scarizona takes place at the Thompson Event Center, conveniently located near Loops 101 and 202 in Mesa. The venue hosts multiple events per year. After Scarizona, Valley families can look forward to the center’s return of the Arizona Lights In The Night holiday-themed drive-thru light show, slated for late November 2023 to early January 2024.
