3. Halloween Horror Nights 6 #HHN6

This year, the 5 new houses raise from the depths with an EDM-style grand opening to prepare you for the hair-raising experience. 5 haunted houses include:
- Old Changi hospital
- Salem Witch House
- Hawker Centre Massacre
- Bodies of Work
- Hu Li’s Inn
We went on a Thursday evening and with just 5 hours to spare, we thought we couldn’t make it for all in time. But we even had enough time to ride on the Battlestar Galactica and watch the popular ‘deranged’ circus show – Jack’s Recurring Nightmare Circus! #HHN6 creative themes this year is definitely worth the wait and queuing time, especially for the aesthetics and intricate details in every room. How the scare actors keep compose and stay in character throughout the grueling 5 hours is amazing.

Guide if you’re pressed for time: If you’re worried for time and in need for a real scare, I would recommend heading to Bodies of Work (shocking and scary), followed by Old Changi Hospital (creepy, and there’s even a morgue!), then to Hu Li’s Inn (for their head-turning scare actresses), Hawker Centre Massacre (close-to-home concept with a disarray of a bustling Hawker centre), and lastly the Salem Witch House (think vengeful witches and demons while venturing through a forest).
