RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Is Dig It Up going to show this year? Or has the idea been struck completely forever?
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

If this means what I think, this would be a good and bad thing for Fiends. It will be good because the prudes will have less to complain about, but bad because it's a more enclosed location.

Enclosed means riskier maybe?


And I'm mad about the switch...I mean the Festhaus had the best strip club food of all time.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I meant that it might have to be scaled back a bit. The neat thing is how the actors were on the floor with the guests and what not.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I mean, the one in tampa has a similar setup to the Abbeystone except it's a small outdoor area, but it has a similar stage. think pet shenanigan's size with a bigger stage. I think the Abbeystone will work out OK for Fiends.

I'd really like it if they did Dig It Up!

I also like what Tampa does in their Festhaus, The Midnight Hour.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I'm so disappointed to see that Monster Stomp won't be returning, but I can see why they removed it. I thought it was so good the first year they revamped it in 2008, but then throughout the years it was watered down a lot and there became less and less cast. I wish they would've just improved it instead of completely removing it. I always looked forward to seeing it every time I was at the park! Hopefully the new show will meet up to standards. If they are moving the nurses to The Abbey Stone, I wonder what will move in to The Festhaus?
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I have been saying that MSR is a great show, perfect for people who have never seen it, but after seeing it for four years with the only change to the entrances and a few skits and cast, it does get boring. Yes, I was hoping for a completely revamped Monster Stomp, but I think it was time for it to die or do a complete change on the show.

Fiends in the Abbeystone, all I have to say is I think we can expect the show to be really scaled down, and look for possibly some MSR similarities. I only mean this by the fact, Fiends may have a similar entrance and the changes between song to song may be similar by ending with blackouts and such. I think Fiends will get "revamped" to fit into the Abbeystone. Also, will there be nurse out and about Ireland selling shots? MY last concern about Fiends moving is theme. Fiends is more about Frankenstien which is more of a german thing, which is why the theme fit perfect in the Festhaus but I don't recall Frankenstien in Ireland?

With Fiend in the Abbeystone, will Jack is Back be removed or revamped? Will the shows interfere with each other in theme drastically? Is it possible Jack finally gets the boot too? If I'm not mistaken, he has been around longer then MSR and people are getting tired of him. Although I did love the stage last year, it was much more edgy.

As I asked before with it being ignored, does anyone think we will get to see Dig It Up this year? Last year it was cut because of budget issues. I would love to see what Dig It Up could have been.

With Fiends out of Das Festhaus, will Entwined stay during HOS, or will they put in a new show that is HOS themed to the Black Forest? Sort of like a Jack is Back type show for the kids in Das Festhaus but somehow black forest themed. Afterall, the new Oktoberfest is the black forest :p

Lot of great questions, lets discuss!
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Take Jack is Back and move it to the Festhaus. Problems solved. Keep the kid's shows in the same location throughout the different events...

Also, I'm fine with Fiends going into the Abbey Stone; it will keep some people from b****ing about losing their appetite with it showing in an eatery.

And, if Movies of the Macabre doesn't return, they better put something in there; anything, even a guy with a banjo would suffice (could be plenty scary).
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

More Howl-O-Scream rumors? Whatever you say.

It sounds like (as some of you have already guessed) Jack will be invading Das Festhaus in 2012 to replace Fiends. More soon.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Okay, Okay... If Jack is possibly going into Festhaus... Please atleast make him spooky again. I think if they are gonna keep up with last year, w/e goes into festhaus should atleast make parents question whether or not they want to keep their kids in the park during HOS, even if the show is relatively tame.

The park went with a edgier event last year, seems like they are giving into the family friendly way with these changes.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Remember, they will more than likely have a maze at RPT again. I can see Catacombs returning but only for one or two more years.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I would love to see Monster Stomp brought back to it's original location and be totally redone.

That's interesting that Jack Is Back will be in The Festhaus, I wonder what changes will be made. I'm not loving the idea of it, I think that Jack Is Back was so cool because it was like he was throwing a party, and now it will seem more so like a performance. The whole show was heavily focused around Killarney and everything so there will have to be big changes done. I wonder how they'll incorporate it into The Festhaus.

It's previous location was demolished to make way for Le Catapult.

From the looks of the BG Facebook page, MSR looks like it will return in a year or so. Seriously though, I want it to leave and come back like Fiends did. It will be so much better in a few years. We just need a break for a bit.

Also the bald drummer claims it will be back in 2014 and this year we will see two new shows. Will Dig It Up finally be featured this year in Italy? Will the RPT hold a new show? Will Caracombs be back? Will the new shows measure up to MSR quality or will we see Entwined repeats?

So many good questions, any answers??
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I think it has already been confirmed bitten will be returning (not to happy about that) -__- but hopefully fear fair returns, but with more scare actors. And I really hope deadline returns, it could be amazing if it just had more scare actors and the zombies were more realistic looking, the theming and props were amazing, so nothing needs to be changed with that. And I wasn't to impressed with 13..
