Six Flags Over Georgia has renamed its Fright Fest show 'Dr. Fright's Dead Man's Party' days after a guest was ejected from the park's Goliath roller coaster and died. The company has not explicitly linked the two developments.

The production is now listed as 'Dr. Fright's Party' ahead of the park's planned reopening on Friday, 16 October. The same show at Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey has also had its online listing changed. The timing has drawn attention because the Goliath death occurred on Monday, 12 October, during the Halloween season, when Fright Fest attractions are operating.
