Anaconda: Dead on Arrival is joining Busch Gardens Williamsburg's 2026 Howl-O-Scream haunted house lineup.

The house drops guests into the Amazon to search for a missing film crew. The abandoned movie set has been overrun by a giant anaconda, turning the expedition into a fight to escape the jungle.

Howl-O-Scream starts September 11

Busch Gardens Williamsburg's Howl-O-Scream runs select nights from September 11 through November 1. The event starts at 6 p.m. and is included with daytime park admission.

The 2026 lineup calls for five haunted houses, six Terror-tories and four shows. Ten coasters are also scheduled to operate after dark. Sesame Street Forest of Fun, Land of the Dragons and the park's other children's attractions close at 5 p.m. on event nights.
