Dumb question: is the location in that picture somewhere on the periphery of the park? I've never seen that path.

It’s the access road that runs to Verbolten bridge. The road runs along the border of Festhaus Park and the Verbolten show building. That specific part of the road is only accessible by the public on the Coaster Insider Tour.
 
Quick Queues are severely more expensive this time around for just houses, no? 80$ for a Saturday for one person, for JUST HOUSES? Since when do they pull this madness?

There’s no QQ options for just houses besides the single use package. The unlimited and unlimited plus both include houses and select attractions.
 
When I worked at Busch in 2016, we had a few employees from WC get positioned on my ride then moved to the haunted houses. However, I'm not sure if they keep up the practices as I didn't work last HOS.
If not last year than certainly the previous couple of years I remember seeing folks in WCUSA jackets working the lines.
 
WC team members always work HOS, either as scare actors or the park ops doing lines, that has never changed
 
I know they definitely have at one point, I remember a couple years ago we got them for cheap at Emporium around 10:00 (night closing at 11) so we could run through the last couple houses.

But they would never do that at 8:00, gives way too much time to do all the houses.
 
I checked my BGW app and noticed the single-ride quick queues are gone. Are they still available for purchase in the park, or are they gone completely? I especially liked the single ride version during HoS because it's difficult (at least for someone who is not local and can't get to the park regularly for consistent observations) to determine at any point whether a certain ride will have a long wait time. For example, I've noticed during HoS weekends that Griffon might have an especially long wait, but Apollo's Chariot may hardly have a line. In the past, I've just purchased a single ride QQ after checking the wait time and determining whether the purchase was worth it for me. It looks like that option is no longer available on the app. Is it still available in the park, or are we now prisoner to the all-day QQ, whether or not it's needed for all the included rides?

Disclaimer: My reference to HoS was only partially a shameless attempt to tie my question to this thread. During the summer, I prefer to schedule trips for weekdays, when lines are a bit shorter. This isn't an option during HoS.

single house qq has always been cheap. it started at $5 per house slow days, $10 per house busy days, then the following year price increased by like $5.

the only discounts based on time of day were twilight admission tickets which have been used very rarely in park history
 
Must not have been an official park thing I got. Maybe a manger made the decision to just get rid of them or something. Because I know 100% I got a house qq for cheaper than list price one night around 10:00

I hope they put the pumpkin together correctly this year so that split seam isn't' showing like it was last year. Or at least fixed it if it doesn't get disassembled when not in use.

After looking at it more closely I am nearly positive it is the evil twin from the Raven Twins, since she is "missing" her left eye
Yup one of the Raven Twins, as Ms. Vayne was a fashion designer & blood lust vampire , who actually is now working with me at Universal, so glad I am part of the House of Vayne, going strong .
