We Checked out Knott’s Nightmares Revealed 2026

We stopped by the Knott’s Nightmare Revealed event. After getting in we waited, with a bar and a small shop as an option to check out before being led into the park specifically by Mesmer himself!

He is back this year, and he is leading the CarnEvil scare zone alongside the Barker and Queen of Clowns. Outside of that the scare zones were active and we got the chance to check out the talented representatives from Ghost Town Streets, The Gore-ing ’20s, Forsaken Lake, and The Gauntlet.

During the event we took in the main stage panel, which showcased the line-up of mazes, including 8 returning mazes: Mary – The Haunting of Worth Home, The Zoo, Eight Fingers Nine: The Boogeyman, Widows, Room 13, Cinema Slasher, and for their last years, The Chilling Chambers and Origins: The Curse of Calico.

They also showcased two new mazes:

Inked – A washed up cartoonist in the 1930s discovers his blood makes his creations become reality, and he brings them out with murderous results.

Unearthed – A distress signal at an excavation site brings you to discover a group has awakened a malevolent force from the ground.

The event also showcased two new shows, the Voodoo: Bayou’s Edge and Occultum from the Magic Castle. They also brought back The Hanging, with its new version Noose Maxxxing.

Additionally, we got the chance to walk through the Room 13 and Widows mazes with the lights on!

The 2026 Knott’s Scary Farm season starts on September 17, 2026 and runs through October 31, 2026.

We highly recommend if you want to guaranteed experience all of the mazes and shows, that you select the Fright & Fast Lane upgrade, but if you want to pick up your tickets to Knott’s Scary Farm, you can do so Here!
