FRIGHT DOME TEAM UP WITH SAW
Fright Dome at Circus Circus Partners With Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures to Introduce Two New Haunted Houses Themed After the Legendary "SAW" Horror Franchise
Fright Dome's newest houses bring together plots from various installments of the legendary horror movie franchise, "SAW." Handcrafted replicas of the "games" set by Jigsaw in the popular saga will be among the many things guests have to look forward to. Lionsgate is expected to release the sixth installment of the bone chilling series in theaters nationwide on Friday, Oct. 23.
"We've always had the best haunted attraction in Vegas and partnering with Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures takes it to a whole new level," said Jason Egan, owner and creator of Fright Dome. "The 'SAW' films cut to the core of human fear and we're using that to its fullest potential."
"We are looking forward to collaborating with the creative minds behind Fright Dome. Visitors from around the world will be able to experience the terror of Jigsaw first hand," said Producers Mark Burg and Oren Koules of Twisted Pictures.
Darkness and fog-filled, Fright Dome sets a chilling atmosphere with roaming characters, high-powered strobes, multi-colored lasers and five acres of fright made up of extreme scare zones, rides, eight different freak shows nightly, attractions and five haunted houses. No place left unhaunted, demons will descend from the ceiling as guests walk underneath.
Fright Dome is open from 7 p.m. to midnight Oct. 2 - 31. General admission tickets are $34.95 and fast pass tickets are available for an additional $15 which allow express line entry for all five haunted houses.
