    I agree totally, there needs to be a new tunnel if this one is being ripped out! Even if they don't make it as long as the previous one they should at least cover the drop!
  15. Ok thanks, just wanted to be sure
  16. Has this happened to anyone else on here? It happened when we were at Alton towers this Scarefest. Basically my brother's shoulder harness on Oblivion was completley secure and tight when leaving the station - we had pushed it down so there was no room at all for it to "move" like you get sometimes on it. By the end of the ride his harness had "clicked open" (for want of a better expression) and there was now loads of room in it - he told me it had happened while going down the drop. The only thing that I can think of is that the belt was really tight on him leaving the station so maybe the pressure pushing up on the bar made it open to the next level? We did go on the ride after that but we do regret not telling anyone who was working on the ride.

    It's a family ride, so Thorpe won't bother... A shame really
  18. ALL OF THESE ARE BASED ON MY EXPERIENCES THIS YEAR: Paid: The Sanctuary Free: Terror of the towers Overall: The Sanctuary 1. The Sanctuary 2. Terror of the towers 3. Carnival of screams 4. Asylum 5. The Curse 7. Experiment 10 8. SAW Alive 9. The Passing (What a load of rubbish! imo) Asylum would be my overall favourite maze if it was consistent in being good. I feel it works best when they use the other (dim) lights as well as the strobes and when they only have a bit of mist in there, not so much so that you can't even see what is supposed to be scaring you. This year, the first weekend of Fright nights saw the maze running brilliantly, however by half term they had completley filled it with smoke and fog and it was pointless because you couldn't see a thing. It is also annoying when (on some occasions) you get to the end corridor and there is no actor wielding a chainsaw because they are on their break (or something like that!) As for The Sanctuary, absoloutley brilliant all the way through but it did lack a "final scare"

    I would like the cars to remain backwards - in fact the actual coaster left as it is. But I would like to see a complete refurb of the special effects, queueline and building in general - including the exterior. Go back to the theme being a computer virus but THEME IT PROPERLY! Maybe something like "Virus detected: Do not proceed" on the chainlift from speakers etc... Also the building should go back to being pitch black, but the stops should have tunnels round them with lighting effects. (Similar to the tunnels on the trim breaks on Astro storm at Brean leisure park) There could be a few random strobes around the building though that only go off as the train goes past them etc...
  20. I prefer the scarefest mazes - I find them far more themed and more immersive. The level of scares in Thorpe's mazes is always hit and miss as well, whereas I don't think this is the case with the scarefest ones as much.
  21. Went to Alton towers for 2 and a half days. (30th, 31st October and half of 1st November.) RIDECOUNT (Over 2 and a half days:) - Nemesis x12 - Th13teen x2 - Oblivion x3 - Air x1 - Sonic spinball x1 - Nemesis: Sub Terra x2 - Hex x3 - Duel x9 - Congo river rapids x1 - The flume x1 - Ripsaw x1 - Submission x1 - Enterprise x1 MAZE COUNT (Over 2 and a half days:) - Terror of the towers x2 - The Sanctuary x2 - Carnival of screams x2 (Sanctuary and Carnival of screams were at a discounted price the second day of going in them (1st November))
  22. To be honest I thought that Hellgate was much better than The Passing!
  23. Right then, my review of the mazes I went in today: Maze count: The Asylum x2 Experiment 10 x1 The Passing x1 For a good quality maze from start to finish, I would reccomend The Asylum. (Cannot comment on Curse or Saw alive this year because I didn't go in them - but I will be in Half term when I go to Fright nights again.)
  24. I am going to Fright nights this Sunday so I will review all of the mazes on this forum. (Could someone tell me how to add spoiler tags please? Much appreciated )
