    What's brilliant is how this whole campaign is also about 2 months behind schedule thanks to the delays of Ghost Train. Halloween events are essentially Thorpe's only event now so I expect it to be hugely marketed. Sad we didn't get to play a game and have Platform15 teased to us :( it's always good fun trying to work out what we're getting.

     

     

    Have we ever seen a fright night campaign released before August? If anything were in-front of schedule.

    The old train path is where TWBP is right? So... Where's Blair Witch gonna go if the new maze is there?

     
     

    No by the log flume that loop of the track. Those actors are outside and it does say overground would be weird to be all indoors. Plus log flume now in motion meaning no health  and safety risk. Time to theme it all up as well.

    * I mistook overgrown and overground. Still it adds to the case also those images are taken in the wood and rockwork where the train used to travel through.

    Press release on social media will go something like:

     

    "We are excited as you are to finally ride the new Derren Brown's Ghost Train at THORPE PARK RESORT. However, we anticipate the experience being extremely popular, and because of this we will be introducing a pre-booked timed ticket system to minimise queues and ensure everyone has a fair chance of boarding during their visit to THORPE PARK. Only those with a prebooked ticket will be able to board DERREN BROWN'S GHOST TRAIN until further notice."

     

    Wait is this a soft opening? Or is it a ballot? The word fair confuses me everyone will get on the ride if they queue up at the end of the day whether its 5mins or 4 hours down the line.

    They are nothing but a complete shambles.

    Why invest in something with so much new technology when their reliability on existing, tried-and-tested rides is already awful?  Why get something that heavily relies on effects/headsets working when they don't even maintain their current effects?

    It's a disgrace to be airing the adverts on TV stating "end of May", I saw two yesterday!  What sort of clueless so-and-so gives a second timescale after the backlash the first delay got?

    Just seen this on Thorpe's website:

    :clapping::rolleyes:

    Shame it took them two delays and subsequent backlashes to realise this.

    I have read it, it doesn't change my opinion and I don't want to cause a stir by replying to it.

    That advert is false advertising.

     

    I don't think it justifies 5 moaning posts in the last few hours. Yes, Thorpe has mucked up. But why not be patient and just wait and enjoy the other rides Thorpe has to offer rather than coming to a forum to complain about an unfinished product that when finished will probably make us glad we waited. There is so much new technology here within this ride, which could be up there within the top 10 dark rides in the world, that I'm more than happy to wait for a product that's 100% done rather than a yeah it was ok 65%..
