Disney World Has a New Halloween Rival
Sometimes it's all about timing in the theme park industry. Just as Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) and Comcast (NASDAQ: CMCSA) are gearing up to bring back the after-hours Halloween events that they suspended last year amid pandemic concerns there's a new rival jumping into the tank.
SeaWorld Entertainment (NYSE: SEAS) announced late last week that it will be introducing the Howl-O-Scream event that it's been hosting at its Busch Gardens theme parks for years at SeaWorld Orlando. For 27 select nights between mid-September through the end of October the marine life park will transform itself into a lively party scene with outdoor scare zones, walk-through haunted houses, Halloween-themed shows, and even some interactive surprises on the ride itself. It is SeaWorld's smartest move in years, and -- again -- timing is everything.
