JoshuaA Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Just now, ThemeParkCrafter said: Â I certainly was not expecting that amount of gore, specially on Facebook, let alone the event Facebook is a site for 13+, the event is designed for people who are around the age of 13.. I don't see what the problem is? Also the event is meant to be scary/gory/disturbing. There are way worse stuff on Facebook, all scare events do some sort of promo for there attraction whether its a video/image. pognoi and L7123456 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Some people do get scared more than others, therefore the warning should have been present at the start. However, it is an advert for an event that is designed to scare you, and this advert defintiley helps the buildup to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 The fact that I didn't think it was that gory at all probably says a lot about the films I've watched ha Glitch, Cal and Matt A 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we gonna have the butcher roaming the park this year? I hope not after seeing this! I didn't find it too gory tbh, and I am extremely squeamish. It just looked like a pile of meat from the Asda down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaster Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 ScareTOUR have posted some more info on this year's Fright Nights; Quote We now have the full write up for Fright Nights at THORPE PARK Official confirming a number of new points about the event including Campfire Stories, an upgrade for Blair Witch to tie in with the current movie, an updated Big Top, Face It Alone experiences and even more back story about Platform 15 - "Platform 15 is set in the Park’s woodlands; it is the largest scare maze to date covering 450 metres. Guests will depart on a one way ticket along an overgrown railway line which is the last known route of the Sleeper Express, a locomotive that disappeared into thin air with all passengers still on board. Take your turn to walk the Island’s backroads which have never before been accessible to the public. Guests will face a deserted railroad, explosions, séances, Ouija boards and pitch black forestry. They may also find themselves hunted and chased in the depths of the forest, so they must tread carefully and not disturb the grounds – zombie ‘Sleepers’ hidden amongst the trees may awaken. The scare doesn’t stop there, in partnership with Lionsgate the Blair Witch scare maze has received an overhaul to tie in with the new film’s twisted tale. As part of the Park’s birthday celebrations, roaming scare actors will be unleashed on the Park after 6pm, so the scares will continue outside the mazes. Guests can choose which characters arrive at the Park by voting on the Thorpe Park Official Facebook page. They can choose from a selection of frightful fiends who have graced Fright Nights mazes over the past 15 years, and bring them back to the Park for one last scare.  MAZES Cabin in the Woods: The Maze Winner Best Halloween Scare Attraction SCARS 2014 Experience a frightening live recreation of this ground-breaking satirical horror film.

Did you know THORPE PARK Resort was built on Chertsey Abbey’s ancient burial ground, disturbing the monks buried beneath? Legend has it that the monks were possessed, given that their monastery was built way back in 666AD. Some say their spirits still haunt THORPE PARK Resort - and that FRIGHT NIGHTS was a guise to cover when they’re most active.

Coaster Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Does anyone know anything more about "campfire stories?"  I'm not sure if it's included in the event or an extra for people staying in the Shark Hotel?  It sounds promising, I just hope that the changes in The Big Top and Blair Witch are substantial rather than just small changes here and there.  TBT does have potential, and the new soundtrack sounds good, so I really hope there will be major improvements this year.

L7123456 Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 All sounds very exciting! I wonder what changes are going to take place in Blair Witch, if any. I expect them to be very minimal as there isn't much they can do. As for P15, I'm liking the sound of the explosions, seances and Ouija boards! Could potentially be the best maze.

mrmatt Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Someone at Thorpe park who is in charge of the website wanted to leave early today.

JoshuaA Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Overall I hope they don't change Blair Witch too much as IMO it was the best thing at Fright Nights last year! The Big Top definitely needs massive changes next year, as last year it simply didn't work.. Just now, mrmatt said: Someone at Thorpe park who is in charge of the website wanted to leave early today.

Aha that's hilarious, but it really shouldn't be happening from a park as well established as Thorpe - or any park for that matter.  Hope they put more effort into the actual event Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyMoo Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 As we speak, The Daily Mail are writing an article slamming Thorpe Park's use of ouija boards in an entertainment fashion - contained within said article will be a pointless reference to the Smiler accident Matt A 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Pleased to see that Campfire Stories will make use of the Chertsey Abbey / monk history.  It might not be Headless Monk Hunt, but I'll take it  Also nice to see Containment receive a reduction in scare factor; 5/5 was a bit much if we're being honest!  I was interested to see how Platform 15 would pan out with opening time.  Was a bit worried it would open at the same time as Blair Witch what with presumably being all outside.  Nice idea opening it a 3pm and saying it'll be less scary, means we don't lose an attraction for 3-4 hours each day!
