I think they’ve been spot on this year with how they’ve run the late night events. Didn’t hear AP holders complain when they allowed all guests to stay and ride rides till 10 during the MOS nights - this is the same but in reverse I guess!

Stealth audio is much better now - plaza has had speakers put back on to the truck - station has had lots of work too - station audios working through all the speakers again finally and the bass from under the station is working properly again. ??

Walking dead has had some work over the few closed days - new theming in the queue line / exit scene area, the audio which was there to send in the next groups for a very short time is now back too

There are some days which are £10 which I think was the starting price last year too?

Colosuss has its big Bose 802’s fixed last year which still work (apart from the one near rush) which help add a lot - but for the last couple of years a few of the smaller Bose ones up across the area have stopped working leaving some dead patches. Hopefully one day it can be sorted!

Possibly - but if the wind effects ride availability for over an hour I beleve you will receive a free ticket to return!

I think you probably answered your own question there!

Reading the article it was the foam back from a seat which was out of use - it reopened after around 15 minutes

They have been testing out a “Live” version of the pre show over summer, they had more actors in there too which worked pretty well, would like to see actors in the queue rather than just in the exit though.

Standard / Thorpe annual passes are not valid for special events, they would be well within their rights not to offer a discounted ticket atall. Although £20 is high I’m sure they will have a free preview event.

Not against a show - they used to have some pretty decent Fright Night shows and this has potential- it’s a shame it’s replaced the Big Top though and not along with it IMO.

Big Top Showtime will be a show by the sounds of it which should work in the dome.

If the rumoured line up of Saw, Living Nightmare, Blair Witch, Santum and Platform 15 is true then why should anyone be excited? Admittedly Sanctum is a rumour but it's looking like the ratio of indoor mazes to outdoor mazes is about 50/50 so for what reason are you so optimistic? The key words

Last years walking dead theme was announced on the 5th September - so this year isn’t really much later than their usual.

That’s not a bad thing if the experience is differnt enough Tbf - I think was mentioned earlier they did similar with saw the ride comes alive - and that was no different to when they had actors in the queue line!

Interesting - wonder if they could do something with The Walking Dead The Ride Over Fright Nights - I saw a few people mention a live version of the pre show was in operation over summer, the exit also had more actors than usual - perhaps a test for Fright Nights?

From what I understand Figaro Bros are some individuals who used to work at the park and have gone off to do their own thing - totally unrelated to The Big Top in that sense, there would be nothing contractual stopping them bringing it back.

Yep it’s platform 15

The rumour back then suggested they couldn’t use The Edge becusse of The Pizza Hut Pizza, wasn’t The Humdinger also in contention? Anyone got a list of the original suggested names?

Whilst we may find out something today, I can’t see them announcing their full fright night plans from one pop badge release - but we will see!

Will be there!

Assuming nothing new is added to the event lineup of course..

I’ve seen on Twitter they’ve recently been trying out the Live version of The Walking Dead The Ride’s preshow, haven’t seen it yet so hoping to soon, it would be good to see it in use over Fright Nights. Theyve also had more actors in the exit which seems to work pretty well!

Agree I think the “no where is safe” could suggest to seeing more around the park, will be interesting to see what that is!

Walking Dead’s station has returned to how it was - with the flood lights gone and the lightning sequence on dispatch! 85AF5986-E5F0-45B8-9111-0C9664325220.MP4
