RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Hunted will not return, while riding the train you can see they completely struck that house, the outside looks normal. Plus props from that house went to Unleashed, which was very well done for what they did.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I think the clown scare zone should be all of Italy like they had it when last laugh industries was there, not just the bridge. And I hope they get another haunted house not counting the 'rumored' alone house
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I'm hearing rumors that Catacombs will not be returning this year. Not sure if somthing will be taking its place or not.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I imagine that it will be replaced. If they didn't, the GP would see it as replacing a normal house with an up-charge house. That wouldn't fly well.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Plus the location of catacombs is very ideal. That backstage area is bigger than you think, and they could do a lot with it. I think catacombs had the perfect theme, I can't imagine what could possibly replace it?
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Don't forget the supposed Verbolten tie in to HOS too.

I gotta think they'll do something outside like they did two years ago before they closed off Festhaus park. Just Bitten back there is lame.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

The area is insuitable to use. It's very hilly now that the dirt from the event building was moved around.

Does anyone else agree that there is really no saving 13? So far I'm thinking this Howl-O-Scream will be a bust. I mean it is a bit soon to decide and all but still with Bitten?! YOU WANT TO SCRATCH CATACOMBS, BUT KEEP BITTEN?

Sorry, I'm angry with these decisions, and feel the need to vent my opinion. lol

I feel like the fact they've had bitten so long, and it hasn't pleased anyone since maybe the second year it was open, it should be gone by now. Generally everyone has complained about it. It's just not even scary, fun, surprising, or any element you'd expect from a house.

Now 13 has a FEW good concepts. Except, the house a whole was not good. I'm not looking forward to the reestablishment of, "IT'S A BAT". Also half of the fears just mold together anyway. And it's not THIRTEEN YEARS anymore...so it doesn't really fit.

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I agree with you. Bitten has deffinately run it's course. The only way it could be good is if they changed it completely. And I loved catacombs along with alot of other people, don't know why they would take it away. And they should just rename 13 to 14 ;)
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

After Deadline and Fear Fair, I'm hoping that if they replace Catacombs, it will be high quality. I do agree Bitten should go, but I think this rumored new house will be great.

I have a /huge/ concern about the quality of shows this year.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I agree about the shows, but i never watch them anyway so it doesnt affect me. To me i never liked catacombs and bitten so having one gone is good. I agree that 13 should be a one year house but sadly, it isnt.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Any idea what is replacing monster stomp? I mean, something is replacing monster stomp right? Right?
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Rumor is that Fiends is going to the Abby Stone, Jack is moving to Festhaus, and the new show will be Dig it Up. So technically, Dig it Up will be replacing MSR. I expect to see a lot of the elements from MSR to go to DIU, but just the content toned down to be "kidsiderate".
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I have a funny feeling fiends will do worse in the abby stone. One because i feel it is more of a dinner show and i dont think enough people will make a huge detour to ireland to see the nurses. Fiends now has the reputation of being an inapropriate bad show with the gp. I dont think jack is back will be popular ethier because families usually catch the show on there way out of the park and das feastaus is at the very back of the park so families dont want to go to the show and have there kids get scared on the way back and have nightmares for 2 weeks. Last thought, will there be scarezone bypasses this year?

If they made it 14...it would just be another useless fear...except it might be something like fear of water and a guy will just point to a puddle and scream, "IT'S A LAKE"!

I agree that the nurses should be in the back of the park with the scarezones and such. Parents will die when they here that half naked women are replacing their beloved MS. Personally I think the nurses are fun and what not, but the show itself lacks much of a story to say the least...so it doesn't really need a big stage or more stage time. I feel like the whole point of the show for anyone watching was the sexy girls, so to go on to a bigger stage, I think it needs a better story, or MUCH MUCH better choreography.

I think that maybe they should have put jack is back into the Festhaus during the day, but in the evening put fiends in there, since there TECHNICALLY shouldn't be children there anyway!

And I apologize for being late on this, but I feel like I've heard about Dig It Up before, but I'm not sure I remember what it is...refresh my memory please?

I mean, the better fiends at Tampa is not a dinner show. The show will benefit from a proper stage. But dig it up is a poor replacement.
 
RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Dig It Up was on the lineup last year but got cut due to budget cuts.

Honestly I hope to see a revamped high quality catacombs if it is replaced. Bitten definitely is past it's expiration date.

If catacombs is not being replaced, could we see a show in the royal palace theater again?

I think the idea of jack is Back during the day and Fiends durin the night is perfect, but imagine the switchover. Would it be worth it or too much work? Could the lights be reprogrammed easily or anything else be done quickly?
