I thought 13 was good, but had terrible back ups.

Idea of it was great... Execution was very below par.

The old Salty Dog Cemetery (name?) was one of my favorite attractions, speaking of the Pirate theme. I also liked the ghost Highlanders in Scotland -- didn't they only use them like one season? Not predicting for this season, just commenting on what I've really liked in the past.

But I am ready for fall and HOS! I try not to get psyched about it months and months in advance, but I want this heat to be over! Still a ways to go though ...

I wasn't fond of the Highlanders Ghosts. I felt they were just there and taunting you. They didn't really pop out at you or creep you out, but big guys in white make up taunting you.

That's interesting, truly different strokes and all that. I did find them atmospheric but mostly only remember running into them at night, so even though they didn't hide or jump out, they seemed ghostly.

But I'm an easy mark. I don't startle easily but I love to play along and interact back with the characters and all that.

Although I didn't see any maze work being done like redsoxfan787 said but I did see 3 lifts in the parking lot where the rumored maze is going to be. I don't think any work will start on howloscream until near the end of illuminights. Also was wondering since jack is back is going to festhaus then will all the jack o lanterns be going to festhaus too. Also bitten is still the same so I agree it will be returning......one more thing is that I didn't notice anything being done with the hunted house and I also saw a garage door on the side of the building..didnt know if that was there before.

It will probably be about mid August when we start noticing howloscream construction

Catacombs is rumored to be coming back?

 

[Zachary]

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Yes, along with all the other houses from last year.

 

[redsoxfan787]

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Do you think they will change some of the old houses any? Or will it stay the same as bitten for the past 20 years -__-

 

[Party Rocker]

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Yes, I was hoping for some chanes in them at the very least.

 

[redsoxfan787]

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Especially bitten. I liked how catacombs was longer, but it didn't seem as dark or scary this past year

 

[Party Rocker]

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I love how Catacombs changes each year with the same basic rooms. It freshens things up yet the things we love are still there.

Bitten has just gotten old and predictable. If they just moved around some rooms it'd be better.

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I think the answer for Bitten is more sand... I honestly still don't get it.

I didn't see Jack on your show list there Zach...

This may have been a bad year for pumpkins. We'll see when the harvest comes in unless some earlier signs present themselves sooner.


By the way, if I'm not answering your question, it probably means that I can't answer your question.

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

I still want Bitten to be transformed into a full Twilight house to distract the teenage girl demographic to the point where they don't enter anything else.

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

Nothing on Scarezones? Hmmm.

Nothing on the early rumor of all Festa TMs being clowns? Hmmm.

 

[Party Rocker]

RE: Howl-O-Scream 2012 Rumors

That rumor is very reliable, I know the source and their very reliable. Grin and Scare It will return to all of Festa this year.

That rumor is very reliable, I know the source and their very reliable. Grin and Scare It will return to all of Festa this year.

But the plot shall thicken. Return as a Scarezone or just different costuming for its employees? Contradicting rumors are swirling. I have heard rumblings of that PLUS a different rumbling. Tossups.

If only all was clear to see.

Hard to see through the clouds it is.

Either way. Why so little scarezone speculation? Scarezones left some to be desired last year. Will that be corrected? Will the scarezones be the same? Will there be scarezones? Will there be more?
