We’ve got the details now on the full Howl-O-Scream line-ups at SeaWorld Orlando and Busch Gardens Tampa Bay this fall.

At SeaWorld Orlando, three new houses lead the roster for 2023’s Howl-O-Scream, including D3LER1UM666 Laboratories, an underwater facility established to counter the thread of the Sirens. The Sirens’ story continues in Beneath the Ice – The Meltdown, where the Siren Flame shows up to rescue her sister, the Ice Siren. The third house is Dead Vines: Nawlin’s Nightmare, where guests will trespass on Hex’s hideaway while trying to evade her wrath.
