ORLANDO, Florida (Aug 14, 2025) – Gatorland®, the “Alligator Capital of the WorldTM,” is bringing
back its popular Gators, Ghosts and GoblinsTM Halloween event for a seventh year of family fun
and fright done right! The daytime, family-friendly event is included with park admission and
takes place over three weekends in October, from Oct. 11 through 26, 2025.

Don’t be afraid to have a little fun in “Swamp Ghost’s Monster Movie Museum!” Join
Cyrus the Gravedigger as he trespasses into an abandoned movie theater to teach you about
the movie monsters of yesteryear! Visit the “Cryptids vs. Aliens” Hauntzone where you can help
Skunk Ape save the world from some pretty extra extra-terrestrials! Then hop aboard the Cryptid
Express, and seek out hidden beasties like Moth Man, Chupacabra, Jersey Devil, and more!

Florida is known for big insects, but this is ridiculous! See Betty, employee of the month
at Bubba’s Bug-B-Gone, fend off some huge bugs! And meet the cutest werebeasts ever! The
half human, half Capy Creepybaras! Then visit “Gator Grotto” where cadaverous captains will
shiver ye timbers!

All this, plus interactive characters, animal meet-and-greets, photo ops, and a Children’s
Halloween Costume Parade with treat bags for all kids who participate! There’s also fun shows,
Live DJ, a variety of specialty vendors, games, candy giveaways, and more!

“Everyone knows we just love Halloween time at Gatorland and our entire staff works
incredibly hard to put on this frightfully fun event for our guests of all ages,” says Mark McHugh,
President and CEO of Gatorland. “You simply won’t find another Halloween experience like ours
anywhere!”

Halloween fun is for everyone at this all-ages event from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Guests are
welcome to wear costumes. But nothing scary or gory, please. Skunk Ape is easily frightened,
seriously.
