Cedar Point Amusement Park celebrates HalloWeekends

Haunted houses, four outdoor haunted walk-through attractions, shows and a new parade are all part of the Halloween celebration at Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, Ohio.

The newest addition to the holiday fun is the Monster Midway Invasion Celebration Parade, in which more than 70 characters, six floats, a hearse, gypsies, a giant spider, and a coffin roadster will entertain guests around the park beginning at 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. The parade is designed to be fun for the family, so you don’t have to worry about scaring your little ones.

The park’s HalloWeekends events will run Friday nights, 6 p.m.-midnight, Saturdays, noon-midnight, and Sundays, 10 a.m.-8 p.m. (and until 10 p.m. on Oct. 7, 2007), through Oct. 28. Some rides will be closed Friday nights, and the haunted outdoor attractions will be closed on Sundays except for Oct. 7.
