Harry.D.C Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Well I'd predict lower than that considering that those queue times are what we're getting on most weekends from the last few weeks. But then again it could be 3 hours for every ride, no one really knows for sure. But judging by patterns from the last few years then yes it should be pretty quiet.Even the ones in the Octopus Garden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chloebell Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Expect long queues and you'll never be disappointed:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Expect long queues and you'll never be disappointed:)That's the way I do it! Either that or I don't think about the queues at all. So many people get worried weeks in advance of their visit because they think that there will be long queues. Just don't even think about it. If you get there and there are long queues, so what? It's not like it's a once in a lifetime trip for most of us on here anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake C Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 I WAITED 3 HOURS FOR HELL GATE! it was worth it though, we also had a groupe of 15 of us so the queue was pretty funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 I WAITED 3 HOURS FOR HELL GATE! it was worth it though, we also had a groupe of 15 of us so the queue was pretty funny. I'm going to Fright Nights this year, but I'm not going to queue over an hour for any maze (even if I haven't been on it before). I'm going to get in the Asylum queue before 4pm, and do that as soon as possible. Then I'll probably just do the rides. If I have to resort to fastrack, then I would much rather buy a fastrack for rides than for the mazes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I have to resort to fastrack, then I would much rather buy a fastrack for rides than for the mazes.I haven't done Fright Nights for a few years so my memory may be lying, but if I remember rightly, people start to wait for Assylum about an hour before it actually opens. So you may have to wait at least an hour for it regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake C Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 last year on wensday of the half term I we waited outside asylum for 20 mins or so, very near the front. then they opend the barrier thing and everyone rushed in. it was a mob in the queue line so security chuckd us all out. I didnt do it in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
