Every fall, Busch Gardens® transforms into Howl-O-Scream, complete with 300 acres of fears and frights. Howl-O-Scream is Texas, Florida and the Commonwealth of Virginia’s premier Halloween event with tormenting surprises around every corner. The streets swarm with hundreds of roaming creatures, while shocking live shows keep pulses pounding, and Florida’s top thrill rides in the dark keep the screams coming all night long.
