Well, following the park's current trend of doing things, I'm sure all the scare zones will just be one guy with a bicycle horn...

I've heard that scare zones will be the parks primary focus this year.

Better be, it clearly isn't on houses...

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Well given almost all the houses are returning houses, yes most of the work is going to the zones.

The family friendly alternative would be a slide whistle...

I'm all in for a scare zone involving the nurses

I wish they would go back to the scare is everywhere, but use Tampa's method of roaming hoards. I thought the "mobile" scare zones worked out perfect down there. Unless of course you happened to be walking the same direction as the hoards and never saw them...

Is there any news on why the website is so late this year?

Last year, it launched on July 14th.....

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

None of the hos sites are up

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I'm pretty sure it was mid to late August before bgw had their hos site up

Yea, I'm trying to finalize my hhn/bgt plans and they are not making it easy. At least hhn has dates and some ticket prices up.

You're not alone. I thought there was a leaked bgt calendar up... Or maybe it was just an email someone sent me.

At least BGW already has their operating times and dates up.

That date was from my Facebook timeline--the first time I've found it actually useful.

Think they're waiting until Illuminights is over? that would seem WAY late, with only a month or less until HOS opens.

The day after Illuminghts is over the San Marco bridge gets its HOS decor put up and the park starts to really focus on HOS.

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Well, HOS Tampa's site was up August 19th last year.

If people are going to show up, I guess they ought to do it, but to me: who wants to go to a Halloween event the second week of September? Especially when it's still hot outside.

That's like going to see Santa Claus on election day.
