Because I liked how you posted the PoVs last year (I think it was your blog I followed lol) That was probably me yeahhh. This year I think we’re gong full out. Audio recording, and prending permission, photos and videos from within the mazes. Rather than it being just one person doing the live this time there’s 3 of us. So should be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Apparently big top's mirror maze section is returning! If so I hope it doesn't replace the mesh strobe maze, and I also hope it is a proper mirror maze this time, rather than black walls with a mirror on it! Whats your guys' opinions on this, I would prefer last years version to remain untouched tbh but that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booked everything before fright nights details were released and once they said Containment was included in a hotel stay, I asked customer support if that still applies to my booking, they said yep, you should get an email soon about booking a slot..... Our stay is next Saturday and still nothing >.< Live chat isn't up atm and I have a weird phobia of using phones to call customer services xD Upon check in, you'll be given a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't done it since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyMoo Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 That's a shame... we had a bit of confusion at the end as the door wouldn't open even though we had "escaped" but other than that, I thought it was a decent attraction.

I've never done it either mainly due to cost if it ends up being rubbish- though I understand why they charge for it as it does have a low throughput.

Jack Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 What's everyone's most anticipated maze for this year? absolutely nobody will approve of this but mine is platform! I cannot wait to see what the improvements are for this year. In terms of the 2 TWD mazes I'm probably in the lesser group again with sanctum being the one I'm looking forwards to more. Only 3 days to go now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Don't think the theming picture is getting enough love. Thorpe have demonstrated time and time again that they can do excellently themed set pieces in their mazes, and almost always do. The snippets we've seen from Living Nightmare prove that it'll be no different. As my the maze I'm most looking forward to this year...The Big Top is my choice. As I've explained in the past, though I'm sure I'll enjoy them, I have reservations about TWD mazes. I'm looking forward to Platform's improvements but after last year, you need to keep expectations realistic. Saw will be Saw, and Containment will be Containment. It feels like Thorpe are trying to make Big Top their headline thing, the maze that'll be back year-in, year-out, and will always deliver. Essentially the equivalent of what Asylum was, and what Tower of the Terrors currently is. And if there's supposedly enhancements / changes, I'm all geared up for them...

Coaster Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Interior footage of the maze! http://www.getsurrey.co.uk/whats-on/family-kids-news/thorpe-park-fright-night-sneak-13674513 CONTAINS SPOILERS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Haven't watched the video (cos spoilers), but I always find it a shame when parks spoil their own attractions. Hope it doesn't show too much. *puts Mod hat on* With Fright Nights fast approaching and more members than ever going to the Media Preview, if people want a spoiler thread set up to help avoid spoilers, whilst still allowing spoiler-conversation to flow, please go ahead and set one up for now...

Olistjj Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Another video containing an insane amount of SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS! I agree it seems like they would want to wait until the public nights start before these become available to view also couldnt find the spoiler tag on my phone so I thought bold and underline would do ?

You’d assume the park wouldn’t want it public until at least Thursday night but they’ve done a blog and linked to his blog and video. https://www.thorpepark.com/blog/how-to-become-a-walker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L7123456 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 There's even more footage here! It contains FULL POV'S of BOTH Walking Dead attractions according to the description so don't watch it unless you want to see what's in store. I haven't watched it and have no intentions to. I want to keep everything a surprise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 They both look decent, but living nightmare didn't look like multiple choice if you ask me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshuaA Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I took a peek at both of the POVS and I think it looks pretty promising.. If Living Nightmare is linear I think its for the better.. As Cabin last year was a nightmare with stacking, it actually ruined the maze for me last year. I think both look pretty good, though obviously I can't fully judge it until I experience it myself. Jack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
400400 Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Sorry for the shameless plug....

smconnell Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Do we know yet if Sanctum will be opening at 3pm with the other mazes or 6/7pm like Blair Witch yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
