Red's Revenge is a haunted maze at the Six Flags Magic Mountain's annual Fright Fest Halloween events. Located behind the Full Throttle sports bar, Red's Revenge turns the classic fairy tale on its head with a risen-from-the-dead Little Red Riding Hood hunting the Big Bad Wolf and anybody else who wanders into the forest. Designed by Denver-based Little Spider Creations, the Red's Revenge maze features a number of realistic 3D sets with detailed props, animatronics and effects.
Summoned by a vengeful Red, creatures of the night inhabiting a haunted forest feast on villagers fleeing their demolished hamlet. At one point, an 8-foot-tall animatronic spider emerges from behind a cluster of trees. Inside Red's cottage in the woods, flames flicker in a fireplace amid signs of a brutal slaughter. A surprise awaits visitors under grandma’s bed. A basement cellar turns into an underground cavern with detailed rockwork that leads to the maze's finale: Red's throne room where the fairy-tale heroine exacts her ultimate revenge. After that, there are several other final scares still to come.
The haunted house's official description is the following:
"The wisest elder of the village predicted the village could be plagued by an evil force and to prevent it, they should all be wary of outsiders. The villagers heeded the advice of their elder, and shunned all those that would pass by their village.
One dark and stormy night, Little Red Riding Hood was running through the forest trying to escape the thunderous growls of a wild beast she had stumbled upon while on her way to visit her grandmother. Crying frantically, she banged on the villagers doors and windows. She ran from door to door begging for help, and no one came to her aid. With one last gasp, she tried to break a window. It was too late. Teeth filled her neck and at the same moment, her guts were flowing onto the ground, staining her picnic basket. By morning, the storm had washed away the blood stains, and the beast had finished off her body.
One year later, the soul of Little Red Riding Hood rose to take revenge upon the villagers that turned a blind eye toward her that fateful evening. Tonight is the night for Red’s Revenge!"
