Oh, wow. thats the fastest i have EVER seen the site go back to the neutral site. oh and transformers the ride gets announced today.

How did i miss you? We are always in the stay and scream area by kidzone, but we are up near the gate that they let us out of. i will have a nightmare shirt next year, and will do the photowalk if that goes on next year. I did wear goggles on my head so i could be identified. ah well.

I'm gonna let you in on a secret i guess. the staple gun did go off one night on karls hand. the safety was off and Tyler forgot to check. so Karl got a staple in the hand. How the Trick works: The finale has gone wrong a couple times too. like Tyler won the race one time even though Karl pushed him over. the fault is on the guests that got picked. They barely tied up Tyler and assembled the straight jacket completely wrong. so Karl got stuck in it. still a good show though

They were surpised though how many tickets they sold this year. so there were more people buying shirst this year than in the past. I got my house shirt on the 19th. So i can see why they ran out of those shirts. Also no Bill and Ted shirt made me sad, but i have last years and that one i wore this year. I stil have to pre-order my HHN nightmare shirt, i see so many forum members wearing them. I just wore my creature from the black lagoon shirt and goggles on my head.

I was not able to see the show on the final night. but i did get to talk to Tyler, Karl, and the naked mentalist. we chatted and got a picture together. we asked them about the show and how much work it must have been. they gave a intersting answer. "Actually, it was no work at all. We love doing the magic and everything. Just playing around and that we are getting payed for playing around with the magic tricks we do. Though now it sucks we have to stop playing and go back to the real world." So yeah, they said if universal asked them back they would gladly accept. They were only able to do one half of their show. they still have a other half. They just chose their favorite tricks to do.

so many to thank. ok so i will start with 2 excellent team leaders. Both worked at cooper. Team leaders Andy and Dan. These guys were the best! they helped us every night and went through the houses with us. they would take us through cooper, P&T, and house of horrors several times back to back. Heck, Andy held of his break cause he wanted to help us and go through the houses with us. Ok, now for story time. Fox girl encounter 2 Found some traditionals by the bakery bathroom ( the Me room as they called it), we asked them where the fox girl was. Cat girl #1: "why do you want to find the fox girl?" Cat girl #2: "yeah, she is mean! she takes our candy!" They did point us in the right direction after we gave them some candy. I soon found her after she ran after a guy. (Man, she is quick!) She was talking to a man with his face painted. she soon noticed me standing there. Fox Girl: "TAKE A PICTURE IT WIL-" *i hold up a handful of candy* "Oooh, candy!" We then talked a bit and gave her the rest of the candy in which she gave to the Op that was there. She had us point and laugh at the guy she was talking to cause he only brought her 1 piece of candy. so we gave all of the trick or treaters candy. But fox girl got the most of them all. Alice Cooper Major Props to cast A Jock! We got in the house a couple minutes before it Officially opened to the others in pre-load, so we got to say bye to Cast A Jock and the others. It also was cool being the first people through the house for the final night. We came back later at 9 for our final run through. Cast B did very good! We got to say bye to Carnage. P&T did very well. glad to see KingK in there. Bravo to all actors, hope to see you next year!

Not really, Team leader Andy was guiding us, he went to help. someone threw up in the casino slots room. He told us it seemed they had some drinks, so that was most likely the reason.

Great house last night! Both casts were doing great. i will miss this house.

I was able to catch you, which was good. we had to wait cause of the vomiting that happend in there.

I will try to catch you on halloween night, we are coming that night. since now i know your cast B, i will plan accordingly. Hope to see you in there!

Man that house looked good. even not in 3-D. i wish i could have gone through it. oh well, im satisfied with the houses here.

Was that your cast in Hollywood on Friday? It was the costume you would wear.

I noticed that last night. I walked and was like "Frick there is a sink hole here in the floor!" Yeah, we told Andy (lead who takes us through a lot) and he said they should be fixing it.

Ah dang. oh well. It is still a great house.

Fox girl story time! so my mom and I went through the forest looking for a fox. we soon found her and she walked right by us. i said, " fox girl, fox girl wait! we have candy." she stopped and truned to us and came back. i reached in the walker and pulled out 1 piece of carmel taffy. she went to take it then stopped and put her arm back down. she moved her fox mask up and said "is it poisen?" no we said back. we gave it to her and she flipped, ran over to the local op and gave it to her. she then came back and said; " where is the rest?" I then pulled out five other peices of candy, some carmel taffy and hard candy. As I did a girl with a chicken mask came over and said "candy?" Fox gril blocked her off and said "no, this is my candy!" we then gave her the rest of the candy and she took it to the op. so yeah. it was a fun experince, she still tried to scare us. she really deserves a award.

Clowns by Doctor Cogstein, on Flickr prisoner walk by Doctor Cogstein, on Flickr blurry vampire by Doctor Cogstein, on Flickr just have these for the moment. the one on the right is me for the first one.

I actually met and talked with some forum members, cinema of the dead and his friend while waiting for Alice and horrors to open up. I really need to buy a nightmare shirt. Last night was better than last Friday. Did see a ambulance coming from house of horrors around 10:15. anyone know what happened?

We went through Alice cooper and no one was behind is, so I took a picture of my mom with the jock. Ops did not seem to care.

Alright king K, i dont know if i caught you. First time we went through was in back of my mom with the walker. So if your cast A we definitely caught you. I said your username but the radioactive tiger sound blocked me out i think.

I keep hearing from some leads that Alice was there and would possibly be in the house. Didn't see him tonight though if he was.

Wow I totally forgot about her! I dont know how. She wanted candy from me and I said I would bring some Sunday, she said this "you dont want to know what happens to liars". She needs an award for being really in character. She is amazing. Sadly I did not see her Sunday.

Wow, thats you, then i see you first thing every night we go. we always get a lead, (usually Dan for that house). good to know that is you. you did good yesterday. came down at my mom who was walking with the walker and dan in front of her and me behind. Anyway keep up the good work!

i want to work as a scare actor once i finish school, but with the violence towards them, im starting to re-think. i will still try it one year and then go from there.

Thanks for clearing that carnage, then i think you were missing later that night for some reason. i beleive it was cast B. AC around 8:15 was missing 4-5 actors. Mother was missing, Stripper and her assistant scare actor they added, mutated black widow, and the Jock under the bleachers. It was sad to see, lucky i went in early when cast A was on roll i think.

I MISSED THEM AGAIN! dang it! i went in at about 8-ish, but a lead took us the V.I.P. way. that sucks. i hope i can catch them once at least.
