It's beautifully tragic, how they keep messing up the event and make it less scary every year.

I think it might be scary to five year olds, which is why the park does nothing to get discourage them from staying at night.
I remember someone posting new videos for several houses (Root and Deadline I think), but for some reason, the videos are not on the HOS site.

By including that quote in the video and pulling from that demographic to be interviewed, that tells me what I need to know about how they're marketing the event. Sorry if I was vague; I was trying (and failing) to be clever.
Mummies are offensive to Egyptians, obviously.
OK. So, the chicken and beef skewers at WinIndigo Woods are amazing. #ForScience coming.
Was at the park today, didn't get to really enjoy Wendigo Woods still. (By the time I got around to it it was fairly late, so the actors didn't seem to be doing much??)
Monster Stomp is a million times better with a chair with broken effects. Though the Monster/Bring Me to Life segment is still really bad.
Root and Catacombs were preforming really well. and surprisingly enough I enjoyed walking through 13. However, it's mostly due to the fact that I was with somebody who is insanely jumpy. So everything scared him. I got stuck with a child in front of me for CTC, and two young teenage girls behind me for Bitten. So both of those were kind of bad. (Though to me Bitten wasn't performing very well otherwise either.)

^ I thought that all thoughts posted on ParkFans forum were teenager's thoughts.
Well I am NOT a teenager, and I was very disappointed in WW. The décor was fantastic, but the story telling and scares were weak at best last night.
I agree with that. I really wish they had a few more unexpected scares. This weekend, it seems like all of the "soldier-like men" have their own different gimmicks to scare people. The atmosphere is great obviously, but that is to be expected from Busch Gardens. In all honesty, the more traditional scare-zone style that other parks use has worn off on me. I still think they could benefit from more mini-sets to be used as scares, though.
