Fright Fest 2024 was the 33rd Fright Fest event at Six Flags Great America. It operated on select nights, mainly Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, from September 13 through November 3, 2024.
The event featured five haunted attractions, six scare zones, and four shows. Three new haunted attractions based on horror IPs were introduced: Stranger Things, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and SAW 20th Anniversary. The scare zone and entertainment offerings were the same as the previous event.
While not considered a core offering of Fright Fest, the first two days of the event coincided with the FANTA Beetlejuice Beetlejuice sky show.
