Magic Mountain
Worth it?
Yes. Your Platinum membership looks good with just two trips to the “Thrill Capital of the World” even if you skip the fun of our local Hurricane Harbor!
What can we do at the park?
We start the day by minimizing the time spent in lines while maximizing our fun.
Magic Mountain contains the most roller coasters in the world. These are my favorites:
My S Tier
X2
Tatsu
Twisted Colossus
My A Tier
Full Throttle
West Coast Racers
Goliath ← my controversial opinion
What is the bare minimum to bring in?
Phone that runs our state Driver's License app, Google/Apple Pay and the Six Flags app
If you drove, bring the key
What is convenient to bring in?
Bring food and snacks into Magic Mountain along with sealed water bottles. Entrance security understands that you have food allergies or preferences that are unavailable inside.
Six Flags drink cup or a refillable water bottle
Carrier sling on the refillable drink for a distinct look and easy cross body carry
Zippered fanny pack so you can secure your pocketable items while on looping coasters
Eyewear adjustable retainer to keep your shades from flying off unless you pocket or don't use one
If you go on water rides or it's raining, a Ziploc to protect anything that can be damaged when soaked
Purses and cross body packs are not allowed on roller coasters. You are allowed to wear a small, zippered fanny pack that wraps around your waist.
Universal Studios Hollywood: Halloween Horror Nights
How many Halloween Horror Nights attractions can we experience in one evening?
Entering the park after 2p will allow us to fast track three popular horror night houses before 7p.
Queue up at the holding area nearest our first house around 5:30p
First house starts at 5:45p
Second house should finish as Halloween Horror Nights early attendees start trickling in
Third and possibly fourth house wait times remain quick
After that, we can:
Experience less popular attractions
Board the Terror Tram which drops us off in the studio backlot
Check out the Scare Zones
Enjoy the Stage Shows
Finally, we finish with one or two popular attractions as the crowds thin.
Worth it?
Absolutely not.
Costs will be very high for this “experience” so I recommend against it but we're still going.
If you have a healthy budget with conventions and other social activities covered, feel free to consider Halloween Horror Nights. Otherwise, come join us at Hurricane Harbor!
