This weekend CreepyLA.com got a sneak peek at Knott’s new maze designed by David Ortiz, scheduled to open Thursday.


An old church, what lurks inside?

This unique maze is a must see.  Far from being a remake of a Hollywood Halloween flick, this maze is infused with the real spirit of the Mexican holiday from which it takes its name.

Sacrifices to the Aztec god.

Inside the maze you could meet anything as you pass through the old church, a south of the border saloon, a Mexican cemetery, and through a jungle and into the dark recesses of an Aztec Temple.

This is a maze you don’t see everyday, and it’s sure to scare the cerveza out of you.  Check back soon to read interviews with some of the mazes workers and the Dia De Los Muertos Maze designer, David Ortiz.

Just thrilled to see the pictures from Dia de los Muertos. I painted these murals, and had not time to take pictures before the event. So thanks. Had a great time painting.
