You people put me to shame and I don't know why.
I went 1 night and saw 2 houses. That's it. Are you people who end up seeing the houses 155 times in 2 days the people I see literally running from house to house? If so ..... I'm not one of you. And that makes me sad because I'm not one of anybody, and I thought that on this forum I could be one of you because you all are possibly as strange as I am.
But the shirt I have that says "Bomb Squad - If you see me running, try to catch up" is true.
If you're not crazy runners, how do you do it?! It seems like it'd have to be just luck, because I had several routes people mentioned logged in my head and none of them seemed like they wouldve worked - you'll always end up waiting 45 minutes (so uh, more than an hour) for more than one house, I think. I've only *EVER* been able to go through a house more than once : Scary Tales in 08.
HOW DO YOU SEE THE SAME HOUSE 9 TIMES IN TWO DAYS?!
I mean... we got right to it but only saw 2 houses Sunday. Also I guess it doesn't help that we didn't get in the parking line til around 8 and we left the park around 1130 so .. not much time. Really wish I went tonight to see it on a Thursday! I'm extrapolating based on what I saw and I think I have to go every remaining FFP night to see everything, and I still think I'm going to play Pickup (that's where I go on Halloween, when HHN is - for some reason- supposedly empty).
Express Pass helps. Last year, I went once and I didn't get to see everything and half the houses had cast changes while I was going through them. I was so worried that I would have a repeat of last year, that I made sure this year is the exact opposite. I went through all of the houses within two hours, and I was ready to go again. Also, eight is when the lines start getting to be "10,000 hours" long, and it seems that you only go in after eight.
The entire time I spent waiting in line and walking through WN amounts all together to about an hour and a half. I could have walked through The In Between twice for the nine times I walked through WN. I also really liked it...
Also, by going through all the houses multiple times, I got to see the quality scares in high quantities. Quantity versus quality war is over because they are
complimentary.
Yes, going to the park for the entire six (or is it seven?) hours helps you see everything you want a lot of times. I planned on seeing everything an even four times, but the wait for Winter's Night was really short and The Thing made me feel detached from the action, so I put the two times I would've wasted in The Thing towards The Forsaken and Saws N' Steam.
seeing as i only went one night and left 1 1/2 hours early, i guess i can understand it. if i stayed the entire night, i couldve done WN 3 times and everything else 2 times bsides poe ans saws. if i went twice and didnt do thing the next time, id have the same house count as you except for WN. i probably wouldnt have done it 9 times, maybe 5 or 6.
also, did you see any shows/have express?
No, I didn't see the shows, but one of the times I waited for Saws N' Steam, I heard the entire show. It sounded terrible.
Yes, I had Express. Yes, I am an outlaw and I used it twice for two houses. I felt guilty of stealing afterwards, but then I stopped caring.
-
I think the reason the effect is not as cool is because those floors are dirty and scratched from people walking, so now it sucks, But I bet opening day it probably looked amazing....
That's definitely a major part of it. I noticed it lacked a little luster.
It didn't suck, I just didn't think the room looked floorless. I thought it complimented the set of that room very well before I realized it was the floorless floor. I was floored by how un-floorless the floorless floor looked.

1- This is the reason I snipped out your rant too: : People get their faces licked all the time, what's so special about that?
2- The extra 7 don't count, because I am a committed solipsist and you didn't exist before you were interacting with me directly .... That's simple logic. And it's in the bible. Read your bible.
3 Couldn't you just delete the post? OMG IS THERE NO WAY TO DELETE POSTS? Like how there's no way to make a FB or Myspace account die? You don't kill them - you just make them undead! .... I say we need a wooden stake. We can use my stake.... We'll use your monitor.
4- You replying to yourself would be the only thing on this whole post that was anything close to 'ridiculous.' Thank you for keeping this a ridiculous-free zone.
5- ::::exhales deeply:::::: Thanks, jeez, way to wait like two months! That tantrum almost killed me! YOU ARE INSENSITIVE.
1- It was the way he did it. He jumped out, stared at her for a moment, and then (passionately) licked her face. It was very out of place for Saws N' Steam... and scareactors. However, you are right, people do get their faces licked all the time. My friend once used it as a greeting, as it apparently spreads less germs than a handshake. That was an odd time.
2- I mentioned the nine I walked through when I began interacting with you directly, but you chose to ignore it and say you'd walk through it 37 more times. You could have said you were going to walk through it 45 more times, thus beating me, but you didn't. I'd read my bible more often, but it's written in modern English. Exodus 14.14: "Don't Question God. You can shut up." I kid you not, it says that. So, I can't really trust anything it says.
3 Why wasn't there a hyphen here? It distressed me. I'm pretty sure posts are only deleted by mods.
4- I laughed out loud at this. Sure, I could have said "lulz," but where would the fun be in that?
5- I sometimes forget how odd it is to be apathetic towards someone I've never formally met before. Especially when they throw tantrums.
As I said above I think they're pretty much all kind of a stretch, except the two that have props (Pride = mirror Gluttony = food - I can get behind that). They missed a huge opportunity otherwise. Examples, you say?
SURE!
The SDS as most of us know it today comes from Dante's Divine Comedy: lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy, pride.
Embodying these depends on knowing what they are, and in Dante's time (and ours), they were acts of excess. But they were all derived from other writings and have nuances that could have been exploited in this zone. To wit:
1- Lust: This wasn't always about just LUST the way we think of it today (impure sexual thoughts, etc.). Aristotle's idea of Lust was included in his definition of Love: excessive love of other people was a sin because it put something else before God. Even in Inferno, Lust is a manifestation of something else entirely: a lack of self control. Dante has them blowing around in wind. The excessive love of other people could've been shown by Lust never staying on her own platform, always running over to others and not leaving them alone.
2- Gluttony: This isn't supposed to be necessarily food-related - it's another sin of self-control, and another one that has a biblical basis: the idea is that excessive consumption of something necessarily means taking it from the needy. I won't bother discussing an example for the zone here because I think the one they have works. In Inferno, they lie around in icy rain sightless and deaf, symbolic of their selfish and empty lives.
3- Greed also doesn't necessarily refer to just wanting money. It's wanting personal gain at any cost. This leads to a lot of the more serious sins in Inferno (c.f., Judas being chewed up by the devil for all eternity). Inferno has two types of Greedy sinners: people who are misers/hoarders and people who squandered. They joust eternally.In the zone, Greed could continually steal things from the other stages.
4- Sloth is interpreted today as laziness. It's supposed to be closer to wasting one's (God-given) gifts. Sloth could have had ... I don't know.. a bunch of half-finished paintings hanging around as she sleeps...Dante actually puts these souls in Purgatory..
5- Wrath includes vengeance as well as rage. Revenge and spite, and also Hate. These are against the idea of loving everybody. Suicide is an act of Wrath. Dante has the wrathful fighting each other in the River Styx. Later on, when discussing "violence," he turned Suicides into trees. Perhaps the Wrath girl, instead of having random blood everywhere, could be a suicide?
7- Envy is insatiable desire for other people's stuff, directly against one of the Ten Commandments. The whole "grass is better on the other side" idea could maybe make Envy in the scare zone try to take the other girls stages?
8 - Pride is actually the most serious sin in most historical description because it implies competition with God (Lucifer's fall = pride). They handle Pride pretty well, I think, though I'd like to see the pride girl not ever acknowledge anybody else. Self-absorption.
I got lazier as the list went on (especially re: Dante, since I was just including him for fun off the top of my head and would have to actually look up the rest).
The point is -there's tons of things to draw from.
Oh, and if you're going to use Dante's list, use his hell - The Ninth Circle is actually ICE not fire..... At lowest part, the center of hell, (people who committed treachery against God personally), is the Devil, frozen waist deep, three-headed and weeping from all six eyes.
Now THAT would've been awesome to see in the scarezone.
Now I shall go to HHN for .. . like ... an hour!
Your background giving was unnecessary, as I once watched a special on The Seven Deadly Sins on the History Channel before it became the Pawn Shops and Conspiracy-Theories-Presented-as-Fact Channel. However, it was still a very enjoyable and informative read, and I appreciate the time you spent explaining it because most people would give up halfway through writing that. However, I must cut it from this quote, because it takes up a lot of space, and that would make this annoying to read. See? I'm not always insensitive!
Also, I'm glad you are reiterating The Inferno, as it's been three years since I last read it, and it was terribly boring. However, it was much more interesting than the other two-thirds of The Divine Comedy.
1- Better yet, her stage could have been a giant, horizontal fan that pushes her tumbling through the air, like those sky diving simulators! That would've been impressive.
2- I don't really have anything to say here. \
3- And her minions could joust the whole night on real horses! Man, you're right; this zone could have been so much better
! I actually liked Greed the way it was, how she became imprisoned by her jewelry and her minions were choking on their own success. I thought it was cool.4- Sloth is generally considered the least of the SDS. However, Sloth was originally Apathy, and was considered the most deadly; being incapable of love, you can't love God, and then your soul is severed. I think the whole wasting away idea was interesting, but I don't think many people understood it. The called her "zombie girl." I would have had her doing heroin or something else 'life destructive', but that would probably hit a little too close to home.
5- I would have loved this zone so much more if on the stage there was a giant tree and the minions were cutting it apart with chainsaws, while the tree bled and said melodramatic things. That was my favorite chapter in The Inferno
6- Why, there is no six! How odd! I'll just skip down to seven.
7- I didn't think Envy made sense in 7 at all. What do snakes have to do with Envy? They're green? So are salads. Her stage should have been one giant salad bowl filled with all kinds of edible leafy greens.
8- When I was there, Vanity (I think that is more applicable in the case of 7) just danced around while looking into her mirror. She didn't interact at all when I was there. So, at least one came out exactly the way you wanted it too!
7 was the Seven Deadly Sins, not really Hell. However, if they somehow covered the Hollywood in ice, had people frozen up to their necks in it, and the Devil making more ice with his giant wing-flapping, 7 would be the best scarezone ever made in history.
I hope you had fun at HHN for ... like ... an hour!

To the scene with no floor, I only noticed it when I was looking at the floor the whole house. That was my second run through, and I was determined to find it. I must say, it's a little over-hyped.
I thought it looked more like the floor was a mirror, and not like there wasn't a floor. I thought the mirrored floor was just to emphasize the effect of the yarn, and not to make it look "floorless." Then I walked through, and it was the only floor that could be "floorless," and I was a trifle disappointed.
It's not like I hate the house because of it, I just thought it was over-hyped.
-
PS I think the "Eighth Sin" might be Wrath still... Are they around the chick with the wrathy wreath of thorny thickets around her chair? Cuz they're wrathful so they carry chainsaws? Makes sense to me. But I don't get what's going on with Sloth (blue). Like, she slept so much her face turned green and ugly?
The "eighth sin" is Lady Luck's minions. They aren't really part of 7. They scare people walking towards 7.
Sloth - She's wasting her time, and wasting her life. Therefore, her body is wasting away. It's a bit of a stretch, but then again, so are extreme burns because of lust, and snake scales because of envy.

First off, OH YEAH? WELL I'D GO THROUGH IT 37 MORE TIMES!
Sorry, competitive streak..that I only have on the internet..... about completely insignificant things...
As above thanks for being entertained - you should hear the rest of the nonsense that goes on in my head. Actually there's quite a bit of that nonsense posted various I places here.
The secret to not getting pushed in line is to be built out of bricks like me. If someone pushes me more than 3 times - or just one time if it was on purpose - I bark at them. That usually Wins.
There *were* scareactors - I'd say that the reason I missed them was probably out of being mesmerized by the house's design ... So various scareactors jumped out of places and I'd crook my head to see what the house looks like behind them:)
If I were to go through it 36 more times, and you go through it 37 more times, I'd have gone through it 7 more times than you. I win.
Yes, because being made of bricks means you bark at people who wrong you
. Honestly, if I really wanted to stop someone form repeatedly pushing me (which has not happened... yet), I'd lick their face; that always stops people from touching you. Of course, this would mean carrying around a lot of Listerine mouthwash, but it'd be worth it in the end. Which reminds me! [rant] While walking through Saws N' Steam, I swear to God I saw a scareactor lick a girl's face. He jumped out at her, yelling "Blaaah!" and then he leaned in and licked her face. Maybe he only made it seem like he was going to lick her face, 'cuz the girl didn't even react and it's against scareacting laws, but I'm positive he moved his tongue up the side of her cheek. Maybe he knew her... I walked through Nightingales, and the girl walking in front of me scareacts in Nightingales, but it was her night off, and she got high fives from about three of the Nurses... so maybe the guy knew the girl whose face he licked, which would also explain why she didn't even budge when he jumped out at her. Or maybe she's had a lot of botox and didn't feel the lick, and she doesn't have periphery vision which is why she didn't notice the scare and I don't know why I thought you'd care about this anecdote. [/rant] How come people on forums always think I'm a troll when I'm only posting topical stuff? And putting effort into it! If I were a troll I'd just be like "HHN IS POO! LOL!" ... I'd say a fifty-one page review of just my first visit is pretty topical and required too much effort for a trollytroll.
In short, I'm going to hold my breath until you take that back!! You're driving away customers!!
:::starts holding breath:::
Actually, I meant to correct the grammar in my earlier post because I hate proof reading, and I accidentally clicked reply. I replied to myself and it looked ridiculous, so I tried (and failed) to tell people to ignore my post in a clever way. I realized how ambiguous the post was, but I was hoping it would be ignored.
Stop holding your breath!

Ignore this post! It's a stray; it doesn't belong here. Don't give it attention or it will never leave us alone!

sorry to disturb the thread, but how the hell did you manage to see WN 9 times in 2 nights and every thing else 4-5 times(excluding THING) ?!
The wait for WN was less than 5 minutes throughout almost all of Thursday night, and about 5-10 minutes towards the end of Friday night. So, every time I walked by it, I went in it. If the wait times for everything else were that short (they ranged from 20-45 minutes), I would've walked through them nine times too. Except for The Thing... twice was enough for me. I'm also really good at getting the most out of my time, it's something of an OCD. Like I said, this was a very rigorous schedule, and it took a lot out of me and it left very little downtime; I felt like I ran a marathon (or how I imagine one feels after running a marathon) on Saturday morning.
-
Nights - 2
The Forsaken - 5
The In Between - 4
Nevermore - 4
Saws N' Steam - 5
Bloodengutz - 4
The Thing - 2
Nightingales - 5
Winter's Night - 9
I never want to make a schedule as rigorous as this ever again.
-
I'm going with Winter's Night. I liked it more than all of the others, though Nevermore isn't very far behind. I thought Nightingales was good, but not great.
-
Definitely the most entertaining review ever.
Isn't Winter's Night amazing? In two days, I walked through it nine times, and I would walk through it 36 more times if I got the chance. So much to look at; if people weren't pushing me to keep walking the whole time, I would have carefully read every name on every crypt. It's a shame you didn't notice the scareactors, they change in the lantern (carefully hidden black lights) light; it's almost as mesmerizing as the sets.
-
Howdy! I'll give a description as to why I ranked them, not a walk-through of the house. There will still be spoilers. but I'll try to be as vague as possible.
HOUSES
1. Winter's Night: The Haunting of Hawthorn Cemetery
2. Nevermore: The Madness of Poe
3. The In Between
4. Saws n' Steam: Into the Machine
5. Nightingales: Blood Prey
6. The Forsaken
7. H.R. Bloodengutz presents Holidays of Horror
8. The Thing
Winter's Night: I walked through this house nine times (it always had a really short wait) and never got bored of it, and I noticed much more than what many will. Every time I noticed something new, and this house has very consistent scares. This house takes the cake on sets, costumes, atmosphere, effects, storytelling, and scares. I say scares not only because the scares were really well done, but every single one of the nine times I walked through, I got at least three or so good scares. The sets are beautiful and realistic. The light snow fall just adds on to it. One person (I forget who) noticed how bright it was, and thought that it took away from the house. I didn't think it was very bright, but I thought the soft blue glow was very reminiscent of the reflection of moonlight off of a snowy field; something I see very often in Pennsylvania. I also liked the lantern motif throughput the house, especially all of the different lanterns placed throughout. The costumes and makeup were really cool because they changed in the lantern (black) light, They would go from looking solid and zombie-ish to fearsome and glowing spectres, which made for a very cool effect. The cold air made me shiver and it really added to the whole feel of the house, and the effects with lighting and mirrors (especially one with a mirror) were really nifty. This was the only house where I felt there was true storytelling, from the lantern light which seemed to harm the spirits in some way; to the shed where Hawthorn obsessively builds the lanterns he uses to keep the ghosts from leaving, I actually felt a continuing plot throughout the house. I also liked the silence, it reminded me of walking my dogs through the snow at night, and how all the noises are muffled and silenced by the insulation of the snow. The scares were very consistent in this house. Not once did I walk through and feel like it was lacking in scares, and there is one boo-hole (which has really cool distraction) that seems to produce a few screams every time. When done right, the "miniature cemetery" and the mausoleum scenes can produce very frightening and relentless scares. The problem is, this house is a little short. Maybe I'm biased and just want more of it to walk through, but I still feel like it ends just too suddenly. Also, the finale. It has a great finale-- one that I've seen people run screaming from, but most of the time you can just walk right through it without even getting a scare. Apparently there is some problem with th costumes, but it still left me a little disappointed. Overall, this is my favorite house and every walk through of it was a really great time. Maybe I just liked it so much because after doing something so many times, you just learn to love it.
Nevermore: I'm not even sure where to start. I was completely blown away by how amazing this was. This house truly does the work of Poe justice. The scareactors were really energetic and relentless and the sets were amazing. I almost couldn't believe it was in a tent. I think the two best scenes are Masque of the Read Death and the scene with Poe on the balcony, as I consistently got really great scares in these rooms. There is never any dead time in this house. I felt like the house had a bizarre and tragic love story in it, but I found it very hard to follow and on some of my walk-throughs, it wasn't there at all. I dunno. Overall, I really enjoyed walking through some of my favorite stories brought to life and I thought the finale was really awesome. It really showed Poe's madness and it brought a really strong wrap up to the house.
The In Between: I've never been so disoriented in my life. This house is an acid trip gone wrong with some of the most effective scares I've seen. The costumes are so perfectly designed. In many of the scenes, the costumes allow for almost complete invisibility until the scareactor decides to reveal itself, and this got me few times. Another good scare has the costumes blend with the sets (not in the way you think) and this actually got me to run right into the other wall I was so surprised by it. The 3D makes this house so much better and I really liked the depth and dimension it added. I definitely had a lot of fun walking through the In Between, but this one also seemed a little short. It left me wanting more, and though the scares are really good in this house, but a lot of the time it's very hit or miss when it come to getting them.
Saws N' Steam: This one has really great effects. And a few really cool and theatrical victims. I don't have as much to say on this one, but I did really like it. The costumes were cool and the heat of the Jaws Queue really set the atmosphere. The diver and waterfall made me happy. This house was also really loud, and the scareactors had a lot of energy throughout the night; they never seemed to stop. There was some dead time in this house, but there are some pretty neat things to look at, like fish tanks and meat crushers. Overall, I liked this house, but it wasn't the best house there.
Nightingales: The set for this house was amazing. I really felt like i was in a trench, and there was a firefight happening above my head. I liked the look of the Nightingales and their progression throughout the house. The finale has an awesome distraction that can lead to a great scare. This was one of the three houses where I got a scare that actually made me yell; normally I guffaw and smile like a fool. There is a really cool and theatrical victim scene that I did not expect at all. One problem: Some of the girls in this house really need to up the ante! Don't walk at me angrily; run at me like you want to rip my head off! Other than some minor lacking of energy, I enjoyed walking through this house and getting sprayed on by a ripped-open body.
The Forsaken: This house is really good... if you get the right timing. The first time I went through, I got what seemed like every scare and the really awesome finale scare. The other four times, I got nothing. Maybe it was just bad luck, but I didn't see a lot of scaring, just a lot of pacing back and forth. The effects are really cool and the sets are very detailed, but the scareactors need to find what works for them. Like I said, the first time I went through it was great and I really enjoyed, but all the other times it just didn't cut the cake. The finale is really cool, if you can get it; I was a little surprised by it actually, I wasn't sure if what I was seeing was real or not.
Bloodengutz: Very funny. I liked the costumes and the button effect. I really liked the Easter room, especially the fake grass. Not a lot of scares, though President's Day definitely had some good ones. The queue video was funny and a great set up for the house, and I liked the TVs set up throughout. Overall, this house was alright, but not really one of my favorites.
The Thing: The costumes and makeup were great! The puppets were cool and it really felt like the set of the movie. The problem is, there aren't a lot of scares. At all. The scareactors are great, but I felt more like I was walking through the movie than getting the scares from the movie. With that said, I did like walking through it and sort of watching the movie play out, though there wasn't much tying the house together, you just walked from scene to scene. Having to choose one as my least favorite, I'd say this is it, though I still liked it a lot more than a few of the houses last year.
SCAREZONES
1. 7
2. Grown Evil
3. Canyon of Dark Souls
4. Acid Assault
5. Your Luck Has Run Out
6. Nightmaze
7: Really cool concept that was pulled off spectacularly! The girls had so much energy! They danced the whole night (sure there were cats changes, but they still danced hard pretty much the whole time) and the guys scared really well. I watched a guy run out of this scarezone screaming when the minions of Lust, Envy, Sloth, and Vanity pretty much just targeted him. I almost felt bad. Almost. Cast change from second to third transformation is the best time to be in this zone. The song changes to the Marilyn Manson version and the guys go wild. It becomes a party... a party where everyone tries to scare you.
Grown Evil Cool costumes, great scares, a lot of fog, and really dark. Not much else to say on this one...
Canyon of Dark Souls I really liked the costumes and the menace of the stilt walkers. A few good scares, but nothing special.
Acid Assault The 3D effects looked cool from far away, but up close they looked pretty bad. The scares were average, but I really liked seeing the Rat lady.
Your Luck has Run Out I like the look of Bad Luck's mask (it's the Maori's facial expression for cannibalism), I just wish the mask itself looked better. This scarezone has great (really great) potential scares, but a lot of people turned it into a photo op and the sound the Lucks make (BWAAAAAUUGH!) isn't scary at all.
Nghtmaze Really cool concept that was executed poorly. I could list the ways to make it better, but that would be a long list. The scareactors try, but they have nothing to work with. And they have to move walls. However, I did watch the scareactors trap a few people in a square, which was cool, but they let them out immediately. Also having wall suddenly shut in your face is unsettling, but not very scary. Overall, meh.
I think this year on a whole is much better than last year. I just wish the theme was more prevalent. And less dead space. The whole back of the park was empty! I liked this year and I had a really great time, but there is always room for improvement [/cliche ending].
Oh, jeez. My favoritism towards Winter's Night is not as subtle as I had hoped.
-
-
New pic pretty much all but confirms Weeping Angels idea. This pleases me greatly.
-
This is a Bioshock house the same way The Forsaken is The Fog and the statues in Winter's Night are Weeping Angels; meaning, they aren't but they are heavily based on these ideas. This is the closest we will ever get to having a Bioshock house. It's such a shame that fans have been asking for it for so long, and now nobody seems too excited.
Eh... we'll see.
-
I guess that confirms the Masque of the Red Death as a scene in Nevermore. The poem in the picture is Annabel Lee, in case you were unaware.
-
see everyone is like "i doubted acid rain now i dont" but basically NOTHING except grown evil (which will only be trees and wild life) and nghtmaze (which all you need is large strobe lights, fog and dark space) are the only scarezone that have things OUT. i mean yes my expectations have risen A LOT for acid rain, but i dont wanna said like a b***h but its the truth. i mean everyone can keep saying things just wait for the actual event. ok now that im reading this i am sounding more like a b****h. lol sorry just i'm a little annoyed of seeing EVERYSINGLE commene be my expectations have rosen. but if you want to keep saying things, do it. Just idk how to say this without making people mad, well if i offended you somehow i didnt mean too. lol
Is that English? I don't mean to be mean or judgmental, but if you could spell check and make sure that what you write makes sense before posting, it would be greatly appreciated.
My view on Acid Assault is the same. It seems like it will be very interesting in terms of design and set, but I feel like that may be more of the focus instead of the scares. Don't get me wrong, I live the intricate sets and atmosphere at HHN, and I am excited to see how it looks with the 3D projection and what not, but I am still a little unsure of it.
Perhaps this is more suited for the Acid Assault discussion?
-
It seems that I will never be able to beat Loose Cannon and get the full story behind Forsaken. How sad.
-
I just have a really good feeling about this one. The picture made it look really creepy, and I think if it is pulled of correctly, it could be the House of the Year. Of course, that's just a guess; but I have very high hopes for this one.
-
Agreed when I first saw the graphic I thought of "Pan's Labyrinth"
I'm thinking elemental creatures, some tree monsters, etc.
Pan's Labyrinth is one of my favorite movies, that's why this is one of my most anticipated scarezones.
-
The four that I am most excited for are The In Between, Nightingales: Blood Prey, Nevermore: The Madness of Poe, and Winter's Night: The Haunting of Hawthorn Cemetery. These all seem very promising. Forsaken also looks pretty good. The others look really great, and I find it very hard to choose which one stands out above the others. I am so pumped for this year!
-
1) Nightmaze - This one seems really interesting. If it's executed well, this could be absolutely amazing. (No pun intended).
2)Grown Evil - I don't know... I just have a good feeling about this one.
3) You Luck Has Run Out - I just want to see how this is pulled off. If someone isn't spinning around in a wheel, I will be a trifle disappointed.
4) Canyon of Dark Souls - I'm in the middle on this one, and I'm not sure why. Seems to have a lot of potential, though.
5) 7 - Sounds... colorful.
6) Acid Assault - I'm not even remotely sure of what I am to expect from this...
They all sound good and I'm really exited for the Scarezones this year! I'm actually more excited for the zones than a few of the house.

I think the pic might be from the Columbus house or Crypt. Crypt would be the obvious choice. On a side not way off topic I just felt an earthquake here in Pa. Wow.
This picture has really baffled me; I can't think of a house that would suit silver skeletons, but I'm thinking it may be the Columbus house.
... I also live in Pennsylvania, and I too felt the earthquake.

The only "casino" there would be would be the event as a whole, but it's definitely not a house. Besides... nothing on the website has explicitly said, "casino." It's all been gambling which doesn't necessarily have to take place in a casino. I can play black-jack on my wood, dining room table. I can buy a roulette wheel for home use as well. All we have right now are a set of doors, a pair of cards, and games of luck. Even the term, "House," applies to any establishment for any game; thus the term, "House Rules."
Sprung 2, though, is NOT a casino.
I've been thinking more of a speakeasy type place, but I suppose that isn't going to be in Sprung 2 either. So, I must ask you, why don't you think there will be casino or speakeasy type house or scarezone? Has someone you trust told you this or is it just complete speculation? I'd really like to see your reasoning behind it.
! I actually liked Greed the way it was, how she became imprisoned by her jewelry and her minions were choking on their own success. I thought it was cool.
. Honestly, if I really wanted to stop someone form repeatedly pushing me (which has not happened... yet), I'd lick their face; that always stops people from touching you. Of course, this would mean carrying around a lot of Listerine mouthwash, but it'd be worth it in the end. Which reminds me! [rant] While walking through Saws N' Steam, I swear to God I saw a scareactor lick a girl's face. He jumped out at her, yelling "Blaaah!" and then he leaned in and licked her face. Maybe he only made it seem like he was going to lick her face, 'cuz the girl didn't even react and it's against scareacting laws, but I'm positive he moved his tongue up the side of her cheek. Maybe he knew her... I walked through Nightingales, and the girl walking in front of me scareacts in Nightingales, but it was her night off, and she got high fives from about three of the Nurses... so maybe the guy knew the girl whose face he licked, which would also explain why she didn't even budge when he jumped out at her. Or maybe she's had a lot of botox and didn't feel the lick, and she doesn't have periphery vision which is why she didn't notice the scare and I don't know why I thought you'd care about this anecdote.

Because I can think of no other way of doing this, I'm done with the lists. Done. We would just keep conversing forever on the same topics with no foreseeable end. So, the lists are done. For me, anyway.
Yes, my friend who licks people's faces is quite a character.
Reiterate wasn't the right word, but it was the first word that came to mind.
JUST KIDDING LISTS ARE BACK IN STYLE imahypocritesometimes
1. I wrote that down and I'm holding you to it. I looked up Cooping, and it's only a theory as to how Poe died. Nevermore: The Madness of Poe, disagrees with the Cooping theory.
2. Nothing to say... again
3. I thought their dancing looked more like strutting around in circles. I've never seen a stripper, but I don't think that's what they do.
4. This x 1000
5. They can be annoying. I just really want to see a tree bleed and be melodramatic.
6. I think I may be one of your loyal fans now... And I'm obviously the best one as I noticed what all the rest did not and then ruined it for them. Oh no! You spoiled the ending to the book I already read and the movie I already saw! How terrible of you!
7. She made no sense. At all. Not even the littlest bit.
8. Next time, tell her a thing or two.
Your background info may have been necessary for some, but not for me! Ahm liek da smartezt kidd i no. Not really, I just had a messed up childhood. I still liked reading your background info. I was able to amass all of that knowledge in an hour, how about you?
Blasphemer.
