KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 16, 2016

• NEW: London's Terror Square – A NEW fear paralyzes the people of London as great evil looms over the city.  Will you fall victim to Jack the Ripper's blade or suffer a worse fate at the hands of Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde?

"For this year's Haunt we've tapped into what scares you the most, fear of the unknown," said Brent Barr, Corporate Director of Entertainment, "Fear of things that go bump in the night, fear of the dark and fear of the monster behind the mask."

• NEW: Try to escape all 7 Deadly Sins and encounter unforgettable puzzle rooms that will test the boundaries of your worst fears.

"What is the key to finding the 7^th room of deadly sin? Come find out! You''ll love it, you'll hate it, it's Haunt and only at Worlds of Fun, where you'll discover #WeOwnFear," Barr added. You can make the most of Halloween Haunt with Fright Lane Plus with Skeleton Key.
