With Halloween creeping closer, Six Flags Great America’s Fright Fest draws huge crowds in Gurnee, Illinois. This past weekend was the second to last weekend that Six Flags will be open for Fright Fest. With Halloween decorations up and scare actors roaming the paths of the park, the highly popular yearly event didn’t disappoint this year. Six Flags also opened a new roller coaster this year which has been part of the reason that it has attracted so many guests this season. Wrath of Rakshasa, a new dive coaster, is the hottest attraction in the park drawing guests in to check it out. With this new attraction and the returning of its yearly Fright Fest, Six Flags never fails to draw big crowds and long waits.
