  1. This had to be one of my favourite scare zones this year, with all the crumbling buildings and whatnot. Scareactors in this zone were spectacular. No rain, thankfully. It was freezing.

    Also, loved watching the rats having relations on the lady in the box..... >.>

  2. I found that while SawsNSteam was not the scariest house I visited, it was by far the most horrifying. Now, everyone around me got the scares from the actors, so that may be why. But I feel that the scenery and complexity of the house was far more frightening than any other.

    The chainsaw guy outside the house was a very nice touch.

  3. When I make a signature I really have no idea what it's going to look like until I'm done. I just open photoshop, load all the images I plan on using, and start adding them together one by one until I get something I like.

    This one I'm pretty happy with except I'm unsure about the text. I messed around with the colors for a while and I had a hard time deciding on the font.

    Let me know what you think:

    I really like the way that red dragon came out too, so I thought you might like to see the full picture:

    Wahahaha! I god-fricking loves ittt!!! I'm happy with the text as well, but go ahead and alter it until you're sure you like it :)

    And the dragon is quite beastly. Waaay better than the original!!!

    THANK YOU!!!!!!! <333

  4. I had to just chime in here with my two cents because I am a former OPS team member and I feel the need to do this every year...to clarify a few things. Now, I know that the good majority of you out there deem the presence of the OPS team members unnecessary. Well, tell me exactly how the houses would run without them? Who do you think sets up/breaks down that queue every day of the event? Or who cleans up all of the nastiness at the end of the evening? (and coming from someone who cleaned up pretty much every bodily fluid that could come out of a person; it's no easy task). Do you think that the scare actors are the only people that take the physical/verbal abuse during the event? Nope. The operations team members that blend in with the surroundings of the house because they wear all black, have to..(and yes, they need a lot of different "safety" people through out the house because there are so many potential things that could go wrong so Universal is covering their own ass). Wouldn't that be a little silly to have the ones that are working the queue in the bright orange shirts, inside the houses? Universal Wardrobe makes those decisions; not the operations team. Team members only do what is instructed to them by their supervisors and the reason they are told to keep the line moving through the house is because the "higher ups" want to see those high numbers of people being pushed through, hour by hour. Every hour on the hour the team leaders have to call in and report that number and if it's not up to the goal that's been set for that hour, they are instructed to tell their team members to get it going. While, I understand what some of you are saying because let's face it, no team member is 100% perfect, and there are bad, or lazy ones sometimes, there HAS to be operations team members, otherwise the houses wouldn't run. It's as simple as that. Everything that doesn't involve scaring, is taken care of by operations so think about that. I know that it may be frustrating the way things are done sometimes, and you may not understand it but REALLY think about all the work that those people have to do before you bitch.

    ...and as for the issue with the Express Line for the "Hallow'd Past"; the way that the regular queue is set up, and given the tight space as it is, there would be no other place for the Express line to go...that's it.

    I have to say, I have sympathy for OPS members like you were. When I was there, one was quite exasperated trying to explain to a guest why the guest couldn't light up in a queue line.

    They're so constantly made out to be bad guys, but I think in truth they're tired, possibly hungry :P, and just annoyed. All night it's their job to say "don't do this, don't do that". Meanwhile, half the guests are drunk and an even larger group of them just lack respect. I'm sure I'd be annoyed, too, with being yelled at by a guest for doing my job.

    I think that's my only issue, and it's not with Uni.

  5. Thursday, October 28th- Friday, October 29th. Amazing. Loved you guys at SawsNSteam! (The latest cast- there at 1am)

    My special shououts to:

    1: The scareactor that decided to "deny" me a photo. I got that photo, and I've decided not to destroy you

    2: The scareactor that put his hand in front of the camera JUST as the flash was going off.

    3: The scareactor who used me as cover to scare a couple.

    Who were you people? I'd love to know!

    Again, loved you guys. Hope to see you next year!

    No pun intended, btw

    And for (possibly) the last time... LOVED you guys!
