This year Parc Astérix will once again transform into a non-stop spectacle of fantastically terrifying monsters and creatures.

Peur sur le Parc (Fear in the Park) returns from October 2 until November 7, 2021.

With many themed attractions and frightening encounters throughout the park, spine tingling thrills both big and small can be found everywhere at Parc Astérix.

Parc Astérix dresses up for autumn with 14 tons of pumpkins and 3,000 corn plants and bales of hay set up throughout the park and its hotels. To ensure that everyone enjoys a wonderful experience, the fright zones are marked throughout the park with a traffic light system to indicate the degree of fright: little thrill for the youngest visitors, moderate thrill for the whole family and big thrill for the bravest souls.

• Young visitors will be able to enjoy a stroll through the living garden in the Forêt d’Idéfix. A whole world of plants will come alive thanks to these larger-than-life creatures.
  
  
• The Chemin des Sorciers: Under the effects of a horrible spell, the Nationale 7 road is transformed and welcomes visitors aboard its old bangers for a ride full of pitfalls, witches and pumpkins.
  
  
• The Chaudrons Infernaux...are bubbling over! Visitors embark on a whirlpool tour. However, they will not be alone on this trip. Evil spirits take over the grounds and wreak havoc on this infernal journey.

Le Picte awaits Little Gauls at the Village des Irréductibles for an animated tale full of surprises.

The Haunted Houses                             

• Les Rues de Paris will be as captivating as ever thanks to the appearance of a cast of characters: zombies, witches, wild beast and knights from another time will not fail to impress even the bravest of visitors.
  
  
• Les Catacombes – the park’s newest haunted house: Only for the most daring visitors who want to embark on a frightening expedition into the darkest reaches of the catacombs. Guided by a gravedigger to a secret entrance in the heart of a cemetery, they enter the haunted house through a large vault located in underground tunnels. They soon realise that this is a trap... A rockslide, a mass grave, a tunnel, dead bodies; courageous visitors in search of a way out will have to deal with all this and more... With a surface area of 300m², this haunted house is set out across 14 rooms in which visitors wander at the mercy of unpleasant surprises! Special effects involving smoke, sound, wind, light and even smells are added to this unique adventure. The expedition requires prior booking on the www.parcasterix.fr website or directly at the park’s ticket office (additional fee applies).
  
  
• La Maison de la Peur: For those who love thrills, this is a place in which to confront your worst nightmares. Visitors will embark on an exciting journey to meet various mythical characters of Peur sur le Parc: the living dead, clowns, spiders and the famous "man with a chainsaw" will be there to welcome them.
  
  
• La Colère d’Anubis: Visitors can explore the archives of an ancient Egyptian collection with the help of a torch. However, angry spirits have been unleashed. If provoked, no one knows how they will manifest themselves. This is a place where it is best to be on your guard…

Le Cirque Restaurant

The range of food on offer is also revamped for the occasion, with an unusual and horrific buffet: pumpkin soup in a cauldron, mini "witch's finger" hot dogs, pork ribs with devil's sauce and squid ink pasta with vegetables. At the dessert buffet, visitors can enjoy panacotta and witch's eye or bloody chocolate cake.

Beware, however, of the scary characters in the vicinity who might also want to enjoy this great buffet of terrors...
