Six Flags Over Georgia needs hundreds of new employees to make sure one of its most popular times of the season go off without a hitch.

The theme park is looking to hire 300 people for its annual Fright Fest, which begins Sept. 21 and runs on certain nights through Nov. 2. Casting calls will be held over the next several weeks, with a focus on hiring singers, dancers, scare actors, monsters, zombies and other frightening characters.

Fright Fest will be packed with six scare zones, five haunted mazes and four “frightening good shows,” the company said.
