Ventura Park, a water park under The Dolphin Company, has announced the return of its popular Swim & Scream event. This unique experience blends the thrill of a water park with the eerie themes of Halloween. Franco Martinez, Operations Director Mexico of The Dolphin Company, promises significant enhancements from the previous year's event.

One of the main attractions is the expanded House of Terror. Now covering 288 square meters, it features three themed stages and two mazes. Groups of 4 to 6 people can explore this spooky tour, with a capacity for over 120 people per hour.

The House of Terror has a fear rating of 8.5 out of 10, a step up from last year's 7. However, there are also family-friendly options. Special times will offer a less scary version of the tour, and children can purchase a "monster scarer" to further reduce the fear factor. Another attraction is the “Evil Maze,” constructed from over 300 bales of alfalfa, where families can work together to find the exit.

Yanik Íñiguez, general manager of Ventura Park, has confirmed the event will operate during the park's normal hours, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tickets for Quintanaroo residents start at $499 pesos, with additional options such as entry to the House of Terror for $99 per person or $149 for a couple.

In line with the Halloween theme, the park will offer special foods like monster burgers, mummy hot dogs, and cheesy shreds in red sauce. Visitors can also purchase event-themed souvenirs from the park's boutique, including shirts, caps, commemorative glasses, and bags.

Leonardo Ramos, a producer from Lander Productions, has praised the expanded and improved stages of the House of Terror, now titled “Delirium.” The storyline immerses visitors in a post-apocalyptic world, where they encounter a survivor on the brink of madness in a bunker, a devastated cemetery full of zombies, infected survivors, and a psychiatric hospital.

Ramos notes that the quality and realism of the experience have been enhanced this year, thanks to the involvement of 11 highly trained actors. The House of Terror will operate from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., aligning with the park's opening hours.

Ventura Park invites all residents and tourists to enjoy the Swim & Scream event, a unique blend of water park fun and Halloween thrills.
