Coaster Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Does MBV have the same layout again this year then? Or is it too hard to tell? I had a look from Rush and it looked similar, however from ground level it's not very clear. EDIT: Just noticed in another photo I took that My Bloody Valentine has two doors leading from the first room - this could possibly suggest a new layout with the split-up corridors being the first section of the maze this year?

That would be interesting, maybe there is two completely different routes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altitude Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Don't make me laugh! If you'd read my post and Josh's above, you'd know I'm talking about Face it Alone (which you're not old enough to have experienced ) not the normal attraction.

RubyRed95 Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 I noticed the MBV two doors thing but didn't wanna get too excited, one could be an actor route or something and could be disguised- omg I so hope that's not the case though!

Graw Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 I think it would be cool if they split the group in two right from the start in MBV. really cool. imagine if they kept one person behind on their own whilst the other group goes off. that would be terrifying too..

JammyBand Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 I don't know, I think its more scary being split up half way through. Last year when I was in the maze (my first time in MBV), I was desperately trying to follow the people ahead of me becaude of the darkness and I couldn't see anything,and it was incredibly scary because I think just after the hospital scene, I got grabbed by an actor and full on shoved down a different path to the rest of the group while he was screaming "Go this way!!" in my face. I think thats a lot more scary than being split up at the beginning before you've even got to a scary part. In the end, I don't actually mind that much - I'm sure it'll be great whatever they decide to do. JoshC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JammyBand Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Sorry to double post, just wanted to ask a quick question. Which do you think will be better in terms of queues and of scares: the 10th or the 17th? (1st or second Saturday). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L7123456 Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Sorry to double post, just wanted to ask a quick question. Which do you think will be better in terms of queues and of scares: the 10th or the 17th? (1st or second Saturday). I went on the 10th last year and it was fairly quiet for a Fright Night date. Ride queues peaked at around 60-70 minutes and the same with the mazes. I don't know about the second Saturday but I know that half term is a nightmare (e.g. 120+) I am going on the 10th this year so I hope the queues will be short-ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L7123456 Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 The two doors shown in MBV do look as if you will be forced to choose which route you take through the maze. When I was there a few weeks ago the containers did look in an odd formation but I might be wrong I have a terrible memory. I do remember that last year that I was sent down the same route of MBV twice (I never got to crawl through the tunnel) so I hope that you get to choice which route you take, giving it a reason to go on it twice. 400400 and JoshuaA 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I think the layout looks different. I would love to have two separate routes through the maze aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
400400 Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 The far one went off to the left and turned around at the end of the container I think. And thr near one goes right so they both go in roughly the same place it look.

Dodge2002 Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 My guess is they've just moved the "Mine Shaft" scene where you get split off to the left or the right (what used to be the separation rooms in X10) right to the beginning, I guess it makes sense to have the two routes split from the beginning as it means you have smaller groups going through right from the start, rather than one big group going through the hospital scene and later splitting.

GladiatorFanKyle Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 I'm attending my very very first fright nights this year ! how bad is it?? is it super scary and is there tons of actors or can you walk around fairly easily without being scared every few minutes !

Altitude Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 This year will be my 6th year, seen roaming actors about twice (and I stay opening to close every year). It's not scary really, at least the park atmosphere isn't. The scare attractions range from quite jumpy/intense to dull! Fright Nights used to be better and actually had atmosphere however recently, to me at least, it feels lifeless and rushed :L Worth a visit though, I'm only going for the Big Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmatt Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 This year will be my 9th year in a row. I love fright night. But as some mentioned the atmosphere used to be much better. I love the mazes though although I do feel like they should have a faster turnaround. But worth a visit definitely. I look forward to it every year.

JoshC. Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 #14thFrightNightsThisYearForMe There will roaming actors this year, but they can be very hit and miss. Sometimes you can see them multiple times in one night, sometimes you won't see them at all. They may interact with you, may walk past or may perform a short acted out piece. Normally the roaming actors have more humour about them though (I especially think that will be the case this year given Big Top is the new thing). If you're not into the mazes, it will be very easy to avoid all things scare. There will be audio changes after 3pm most likely and there might be some extra theming, though in recent years the extra theming is usually located by the mazes, and not with the rides.
