MOTIONGATE™ Dubai: Fright Nights 8 – Phantasmagoria
Lights, camera… screams! Under the eerie direction of the cursed filmmaker Evil M. Reel, MOTIONGATE™ Dubai transforms into a terrifying movie set from October 1 to 31. Every corner of the park oozes with sinister energy, ready to plunge you into a world of cinematic horror.
The UAE’s biggest Halloween celebration is back, and it’s bigger, bolder, and scarier than ever. Fright Nights 8: Phantasmagoria brings four spine-chilling mazes inspired by your favourite TV shows and movies, from SAW and The Strangers to The Mummy.
Step into the Fear:
- The SAW Maze – Test your wits and willpower as you try to escape the twisted traps of this infamous horror franchise.
- Vampire’s Inn – Dine (if you dare) with creatures of the night in this bloodcurdling feast for the senses.
- The Strangers Interactive Experience – Navigate your way through a nerve-racking house where masked intruders lurk around every corner.
- The Tale of La Llorona – Take a chilling train ride through Mexico’s most haunting legend — and listen carefully, her cries are getting closer…
- The Mummy Maze – Unearth an ancient curse as you wander through five dark chambers crawling with mummies, spirits, and shadows.
Once you’ve braved the scares, it’s time for some adrenaline-fueled fun! With over 29 thrilling attractions to choose from, the adventure never stops. Soar through the chaos of Madagascar Mad Pursuit, or take a gentler spin on Smurf Village Express, there’s something for everyone between the screams!
