On the program for this 2024 edition of Fear in the Park:

The Haunted House: The Underworld of Pompeii

Discover Halloween 2024's new haunted house, nestled in the heart of the Roman zone, where you'll find yourself in the midst of a volcanic eruption. This immersive journey promises to transport the most daring into the depths of the underworld of the ancient city of Pompeii. Between confrontations with bloody gladiators, corpses frozen in ashes and the stench of sulfur, you'll love the scares.

The Curse of Sirius

Once again this year, the Cursed Zone replaces the Main Basse sur le Joconde show. The Siruis, a ship that has been missing for centuries, calls at Parc Asterix with a crew of lost castaways on board, eager to meet you. Afflicted by an unknown evil, they're not quite human when they come ashore to meet Gaulish visitors. On the program: an arts scene, with some great shows to discover. Also on the menu are two new food outlets in the vicinity of the haunted ship. In the evening, the spot is transformed into a giant spooky club with a festive live DJ set.

The Horror Buffet at Le Cirque restaurant

Le Cirque restaurant turns into a horror buffet during Halloween. After being fired from the circus where he used to perform, Le Maître, a former circus artist, decides to take revenge by creating his own horror-themed circus. Here, you'll discover a host of new and disturbing characters, including Jingo, the terrifying cannibal clown; Carmen, the haunted medium; and a new circus artist. These sinister figures, locked in cages, will be presented by Le Maître at the Buffet de l'Horreur.

The menu features dishes as delicious as they are scary: an avocado disguised as a cerebellum, nicknamed 'baby cacamole', mini hot dogs in the shape of witches' fingers, or wild boar sausages and Soissons beans simmered in a dog bowl. For dessert, visitors can enjoy a panna cotta with caramelized grasshoppers, help themselves to a bloody chocolate fountain, or sample treats from a miniature cemetery.

Parc Asterix offers a wide range of attractions, street shows and haunted houses to thrill and excite. Will you dare to venture down the Paris street where monsters, the undead and gargoyles have made their home?

You'll love the zombie show performed several times a day on the stage in front of the big towers, or in the covered walkways if the weather's gloomy.
