This coming weekend, Erlebnispark Tripsdrill in Cleebronn kicks off its annual Halloween event “Schaurige Altweibernächte”. On four nights in October, you can look forward to terrifying creatures, haunted mazes, night rides on roller coasters and a delightfully spooky party atmosphere.
The Schaurige Altweibernächte will take place on Friday, October 17, Saturday, October 18, and the following weekend on October 24 and 25. Gates open at 6:15 PM, and attractions will run from 6:30 PM to 10:30 PM. Afterward, you can end the night at the “Schwof der Nacht” with music and refreshing drinks until midnight.
Unlike many other theme parks, this event takes place completely separate from the regular park operation. Separate tickets are required – but all haunted houses are included in the admission price.
