About to head there from Richmond. Was hoping for a slightly less parked compared to last Friday. Guess I'll be hanging at open casket
Thanks folks for taking the time to post parking and crowd conditions.
I have a family member who left Raleigh at 11:30 bringing two friends who have never been to BGW. They finally made it into the park at 4:30 (overflow parking arrggh!) but thanks to your posts they bought Howl-O-Scream Quick Queues as soon as the tram dropped them off.
Even though the park is crowded they are happy to be there and having fun.

Lines have leveled off. Guess the cold cleared the crowds out. Even Cut Throat is maybe a 20 min wait tops.
Did all mazes except Catacombs tonight. The line estimates were WAY off for everything. Unearthed said an hour, and was 20 minutes. Deadline said 45 minutes, and was 10 minutes. Cornered said 2 hours, and was just around an hour. Cut Throat was walk on. Lumberhack we got inline literally a minute before closing, and were the last guests through the maze. This maze really shines when the actors can give you their full attention.
We got to the park last night at 7:30 and only did Cornered. It was good, but I only JUST noticed the signs hanging up in the front that say stuff like "come home Bobby" with the candles and the teddy bears, and I honestly have to say that little detail disturbed me more than the maze itself.
Also security has gotten very strict with dress code lately. Two security guards told me I couldn't enter the park because what I was wearing was considered a "costume". Their manager told them I was fine (duh), but all I had on was a plain pink skirt, knee socks and a cardigan with bunny ears on the hood (which they didn't even notice). Some other girl got dress-coded for wearing tights with cats on them. Wtf?

Here's some extremely dark walk throughs of the haunted houses that I filmed with a go pro hero 3+ and chesty.
Yes, I did get permission.

Yeah it was pretty packed. And getting colder. We bailed out around 9pm since this was day two and exhausted.. All the street actors are really good wandering in the crowds. The Ripper out by the exit last night had everyone running. The fan snappers get you too when not expecting it. They did an awesome job theming and by far, Demon Street is the coolest area for visuals. We didn't do any of the mazes or houses. Just not into that. But the rest is really well done. BG really goes all out to decorate the place.
I got sandwiched by two women in Bitten.
0/10, would never do again.
