Fright Fest 2015 at Six Flags St. Louis, Eureka, Missouri

Over by Boomerang there was an outbreak of the walking dead.  I guess the park's zombies were a bit overfed so guests were warned not to give them any finger foods.

I don't know about the zombies being overweight as these ones are down to just skin and bones with no skin left on them.

Sadly the Rush Street Flyer is seeing the end of its days at Six Flags St. Louis as Fireball; a Looper type ride will replace it in 2016.

I do like that Six Flags St. Louis lets people know when a beloved ride is going and lets guests experience it one last time.

I am a bit bummed to see it go but then I am not as it has not been ran anywhere as intense as it used to.  Falling Star rides like this are insanely fun when ran at speed but the problem is that they can become quite expensive to maintain.  It is not the end of the line for the Rush Street Flyer as Six Flags is going to refurbish it before sending it to La Ronde in Montreal next year.
