JoshC. Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Remember that the fee is for Standard AP holders, who haven't had Fright Nights included for years. This is also a very similar pricing set up to last year. Mer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmatt Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 I wonder if it is the walking dead that will be all or whether the global phenomena is referencing universal pictures takeover ? CharlieN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymclaughlin Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Anyone think SAW will have any changes with the new Jigsaw movie coming out in October? Think its due a bit of an update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 I reckon the walking dead will replace platform, anyone taken a walk down monks walk recently? If not miles there's something for your next vlog mate! Thorpe just need to hurry up and release their full line up, I'll have no wifi for 3 weeks in Canada so need to find out asap what's going on this year.

Jack Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 So sorry for 3 consecutive posts but just imagine a full universal lineup: walking dead saw (re-done for jigsaw movie) big top (re-done for it movie) something unique like rings or AHS and then a huge cult classic like elm street, texas chainsaw or Halloween I would be in love, like a mini HHN for us Brits and if a mini HHN is the case, imagine the quality of the scare zones, they would be actual scare zones. Wow I know how unrealistic this is but I like to dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should have something done to it, but it won't. 10 minutes ago, Jack said: I reckon the walking dead will replace platform, anyone taken a walk down monks walk recently?

The train is still there and it looks completely untouched. 2 minutes ago, Jack said: big top (re-done for it movie) They better not do anything to Big Top just have the actors use all the effects that weren't touched last year and it would be brilliant! 400400 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's what Thorpe posted on Facebook... Quote Brace yourselves for even more screams as we collaborate with a global horror phenomenon in anticipation of FRIGHT NIGHT’s most horrifying year yet! - New horror experiences - Even more scares - Darker than ever before More details to be revealed soon. They are coming. Basically we can infer: -There'll be new stuff. -There'll be more stuff than before. -It'll be advertised as scary. Can we have the full reveal please? 7 hours ago, Benin said: Bet that Walking Dead maze will be like the one currently set up at Movie Park Germany... Least Josh won't have to bother with it again I'm too much of a Thorpe fanboy that I'd HAVE to do it just to tick it off... At least Thorpe actors growl at you, rather than just shout 'boo'...

JoshuaA Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Yes a bunch of great IP's like the Walking Dead would be great but the execution is key.. Lets hope if Thorpe aim big with the IP's, they do the same with theming and actors.. As HHN probably has a billion times the budget of Fright Nights.. Though, Merlin have gave us quality in Sub Species, Altonville Mine Tours, and even Big Top to a extent- so I could only hope they push the limits and give full effort if they did do a re-vamp this year! Maybe Thorpe could actually beat Scarefest this year? Who knows? If they give us a intense and immersive maze like Sun Species, then I couldn't ask for anymore really.

Jack Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 If they're saying more scared than before, does that mean 7 attractions?!?! Where the hell will they all go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Big Top and Saw Alive are confirmed to return, as they were mentioned on the website before the change, and also mentioned on the actor job description. Platform 15 was all but confirmed to return in our interview with Show Services: Quote What we love about Platform 15 is its remote location, at the back of the park away from the rides and attractions. You really feel like you’re out in the middle of nowhere and that in itself is chilling, but making the experience truly terrifying is the real challenge, something that we are very focused on for 2017. There's been no official confirmation on number of IPs though. 2 minutes ago, Jack said: If they're saying more scared than before, does that mean 7 attractions?!?! Where the hell will they all go. Remember that if the park were to introduce a scare zone (be that a 'proper' scare like Towers have introduced / seen all over in America or a 'Merlin' scare zone like Dead End), they would no doubt class that as an attraction.

Didnt even think of this, I'm sure they must be planning on at least one actual area of the park to turn into a scare zone, then if you include containment and the 5 usual mazes you've got yourself 7 attractions.
