Busch Gardens Williamsburg Howl-O-Scream 2025
- Thread starter PeaceByFruitTrees
- Start date
The deadline toilets???
Casino theme like what Seaworld Orlando had last year?
So just to summarize for me, based on this post, here are the locations. Am I understanding correctly what the current rumors/intel are saying?
| Location | Last Haunt There | 2025 Prediction |
| Black Forest | Monster Manor | Werewolves |
| Ireland | Killarney | Same, mild refresh. |
| Pompeii | Lost Mines | ????? possibly vampires based on blueprints |
| Festhaus Parking Lot | Clown Town | ????? |
| Festa Italia | Death Water Bayou | ????? |
If it were me, the Werewolves one would make more sense in the woods, taking the place of Witch of the Woods, but what do I know.
I think Clown Town will return. It was much better than Monster Manor
Clown town is deffiently still returning. Its fully setup still
Busch Gardens Tampa also had a haunted house in 2011 called Ultimate Gamble: Vampire Casino. It was a casino run by vampires. Maybe this house will use that same concept?
Does anyone else find it interesting, dumb, a money grab or too early to start the event on the 5th of Sept? This is a week earlier than last year from what I remember. To me, it's just a little bit too early to start it and it doesn't feel like Halloween then. Mid September is a little more reasonable. The calendar only has three days being closed before it begins for them to get the park set up and decorated. This doesn't seem anywhere near enough time based on past years where even after having about two weeks they still aren't ready on opening day, have enough scare actors hired and trained to staff the houses. What are they going to do, bring in a temp crew of 500 to set the part up in time?
It’s the same week as last year; this year the Friday just falls on the 5th.
HHN starts in August now
Poor Pompeii. The amount of things they've dug up there is wild. Subways, mines, Hell.
Craziness.
A bar themed house seems like a strange choice to me if Killarney Diner is still around. I guess they're different enough though.
A VAMPIRE CLUB BAR IS A TOTALLY NEW AN REFRESHING THEME THAT HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE EVER. I PRAISE BGW’S CREATIVE TEAM FOR BEING SO ORIGINAL!
It makes sense if you take a look at @RocketChk's post. If you found all that craziness in your in city, you'd probably make sure there was a bar there too.
In their defense, it's been like a decade since KD had Club Blood. Anyone making decisions is probably too young to remember.
I feel like a more catacombs esq haunted houses themed to the Pompeii eruption and bodies trapped and buried underneath coming alive would be fitting
Gonna go ahead and note this scare zone is also being done in Orlando as well so…
Hey y’all! I hope this is the right place to ask. So we normally go to Haunt at KD every year, however, due to this year seemingly being a bit of a mess over at that park, we think we might actually do Howl-O-Scream this year instead! My main questions are if the houses/event are an extra upcharge, and if y’all have any advice as to how to hit everything up? Thanks in advance!
