DOSWELL, Va. — Hell opens its gates tonight at Kings Dominion as DIABLO: The Infernal Path, an all-new haunted maze inspired by Blizzard Entertainment’s legendary Diablo franchise, makes its highly anticipated debut during Halloween Haunt. One of only two experiences of its kind, the attraction plunges guests into the dark gothic world of Sanctuary for an up-close encounter with some of the franchise’s most infamous demons.
Created exclusively for Kings Dominion and Cedar Point, DIABLO: The Infernal Path transforms the world of Diablo into a terrifying physical experience filled with immersive environments, demonic creatures and intense close-quarters encounters.
“DIABLO: The Infernal Path delivers an unprecedented opportunity for guests to experience the world of Diablo in a completely new way,” said Kelly Daugherty, Six Flags’ director of entertainment. “The attraction combines the franchise’s legendary demons, dark mythology and intense atmosphere with the immersive scares our guests expect during Halloween Haunt.”
Inside the maze, a catastrophic ritual fractures the barrier between worlds and unleashes ancient evil upon Sanctuary. Guests will come face-to-face with The Butcher, Duriel, Baal, Mephisto, Lilith and Diablo himself as they attempt to make their way through the Infernal Path.
The attraction arrives as Diablo approaches its 30th anniversary, nearly three decades after the franchise first invited players to descend into darkness and battle the forces of the Burning Hells.
“For 30 years, Diablo has challenged players to descend into the darkness and face the horrors of Hell’s minions,” said Gavian Whishaw, Vice President and Executive Producer of Diablo IV. “Celebrating that milestone by bringing Sanctuary to life at Six Flags feels like a fitting way to mark our anniversary. Whether you’re coming face-to-face with The Butcher or descending into the Burning Hells, this is a chance to experience the world of Diablo in a way that’s never been possible before.”
