  1. I want to thank everyone who enjoyed Saws & Steam this year. I was happy to give shout-outs to those that came through.

    Thanks to Big Chippah and everyone who took photos of myself and my friends through the run. Your love for the event drives us!

    Thanks to whoever let me comb their cats the last week. I finally picked up on that trend very late in the game and had fun with it.

    A big shout-out to Hallow'd Past, Orfanage, Fear Revealed, Hollywood and Muerte opening casts who got to see me first set every night. Thanks for all the scares, photos and memories I will hold dear. You guys all got me "in the groove" before set time.

    Congrats to HAVOC: Dogs of War for House of the Year, which was my favorite scary maze this run!

    The Usher in Cast A of Hallow'd Past- You got me pretty much every time I went through!

    A big hug to all my Cindys through the event. I love that character so much, and it was great to finally see her come to life every night thanks to your efforts.

    Thanks to everyone who made this event, supported it, and came through each night they could.

  2. I want to thank everyone who enjoyed coming through Saws & Steam this year. I was in the alleyway or up on stage this year (depending on the night) and decided to remain pretty anonymous this run. Hope everyone enjoyed interacting with our casts!

  3. I've been through the house numerous times at first set, and I have to say my last trip through was the scariest of the them all. The Marvel Chainsaw, the Frankenstein, the Dead Exposure room, the Frightanic room,.even my personal bias favorite the Alice in Wonderland room really got me good (Thanks Valdez). No Treak that time though :(

    Props to the Usher on the first cast. He got me twice, and was trying to say something to me but I couldn't hear because it was so loud.

  4. I guessing we will see open flames in either Twenty Years of Fear, Hades, or The Orfanage. And like in 08 how broken mirrors made a cameo appearance in every zone, I feel it will be the same thing this year, but with flames. Whether it be fireballs above the buildings on Hollywood Blvd. or the drawings of flames on the base of all the wooden poles in Esqueleto.

    I highly doubt Orfanage would have open flames, considering its inside a very small, very enclosed wood building. I could see it in a soundstage, where fire could be within safety codes.

    Am I the only one hoping fire returns to the New York area? Steam, fire, steampunk..ya know?

  5. Has the Jaws queue ever had a queue video before?

    EDIT: I personally do not remember one ever being there. It seems like it would be difficult to pull off. Where would they show the video at and how could you hear it over Bill and Ted?

    To my knowledge, the only houses to ever get queue videos have been in the soundstages or Earthquake/Disaster, where there is sufficient space to do so or they was room to erect a large screen, like Pyschopath in 2006.

  6. just wondering...usually opening weekend to me is prime time for hhn, it usually has low waits as most people will wait till october to go. The only house that ever has an abusrd wait is the one in jaws. so Orfanage i expect a wait. but do you think this being a big year will it affect the usual crowds at hhn? I hope not, cause i already have tix. just a thought big year, big crowds?

    The past few years, the JAWS queue has been home to the "icon" house- SAW (09), Bloody Mary (08) Friday the 13th (07), which usually made the queue so crowded. This year, with Cindy being less known by the public and "FEAR" being the icon, I don't think the Jaws queue will be as packed.

  7. i was looking at the fear picture and I was thinking, all those roots on his head, is he directly connected to the lantern?

    Maybe he's related to the Terra Queen? Hahaha. I kid, but that's what I thought when I saw glimpses of the top of his head in the video.

    This year is interesting because every year, we've had well known characters from either movies or popular culture to sort of guide us. This is a "back-to-basics" feel this year, more on ideas and stories than just characters we've known and loved before. Yes, we have a few returning ideas from past HHN, but everything else is very based on myths, paranormal activity and horror favorites like zombies and ghosts.

    Most excited: Hades, Psycho-Scareapy, Orfanage and HHN Hallow'd Past.

  8. But I just don't see them parking a huge float like that right in the middle of the road... even if they wheel it out at the beginning of each night to avoid daytime disruption, that's still a very narrow area for traffic to pass as well as a house emptying out there.

    Who says the exit will be in front of Disaster? You could leave the house by there, but be directed back to the front just like Doomsday in 2008. Plus, it's not in the middle of the road. The Disaster entrance is pretty off to the side, leaving enough leeway for crowd movement.

  9. I might be the ONLY person on this forum who says this...but I'D LOVE for the parade to come back!!!!!!!

    Doubt it will happen though. It feels like they are simply parking the Mardi Gras floats and using them for scenery, much like in 2006's boneyard setup.

    I never got to see the parade myself but I, too, would love to see it return since it garners so many great reviews. I think we got a good trade off in getting another house though, rather than packing the already crowded streets.

  10. Looks like the old Van Helsing carriage prop will be pulled out of storage for one of the scarezones. The rendering makes me think the Mel's Die-In area...

    Not to be too picky, but that's not the same carriage from Van Helsing. The carriage in Van Helsing was more like this

  11. Now some speculations about that mysterious fellow in the bowler hat. The only resemblance to last year's Victor Frankenstein is that he is also very much a Steampunk Chap. But we should not assume that just because Victor was Steampunk last year, that any and all Steampunk styled scareactors this year would also be Frankenstein!

    Thanks Jimmy..People also forget that steampunk style was around in 2008, with Path of the Wicked's Flying Monkeys and the Tin Man (who was also in the Parade Bldg). Steampunk is just that- a style.

  12. Can someone please clarify to me what a "run" house is?

    Is it a type of house or is it based off something? Thanks :D

    Run was a house in 2001 and 2006. The idea was a gameshow where every guest was a "contestant" to survive the maze. The sequel was more based off Hostel, where "guests" were visiting a facility where they were "volunteered" to be tortured.
