As of this writing, Thorpe Park Fright Night 2026 is scheduled to end on November 3rd. Yeah, that’s right—the haunt season wraps up just after Halloween, so you’ve got a solid window to get your scream on. But hang on, don’t book your tickets for November 4th thinking you’ll catch a stray ghoul; the park usually returns to its regular, non-scary mode the next day.
The catch? The park often pulls down the Fright Night overlays and mazes by November 4th, meaning the last date for full scare experiences is that Saturday or Sunday. Pro tip: always double-check the official Thorpe Park website, because they sometimes throw in a “Fright Night Finale” weekend that extends things by a day or two.
What about closing time each night?
You’re probably also wondering: “Okay, but when does the night part end?” Well, the park usually stays open until 10 PM or 11 PM during Fright Night, depending on the day of the week. Weekend nights are your best bet if you want to stumble out of a maze at 10:45 PM, still clutching your souvenir skull cup. Just remember, the last entry to mazes is often 30 minutes before park close, so don’t dawdle in the hot dog line.
Side note from someone who learned this the hard way: the park’s official app updates live queue times and closing announcements, but the WiFi can be spotty in the crowds. Download it before you arrive, or you’ll be that person frantically waving your phone at the sky.
