Chilling thrills take on a new dimension this Halloween season at Tampa’s Busch Gardens. Howl-O-Scream 2007 boasts 6 new ghoulishly infested haunted houses, 5 nightmarish scare zones, and 3 fiendish freak shows. The event takes place on selected nights from September 28 through October 28, and requires a separate ticket. When you can’t take the frightening fear-fest any longer, try out the newly updated Sheikra rollercoaster where the floorless ride allows everyone the chance to scream as loud as they want…from sheer fun, not fear!
