Jord Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 Didn't they have that 'game' in the Saw film where it was like a roasting oven...surely they could have just opened it up as an addition to the maze Mer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mer Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Didn't they have that 'game' in the Saw film where it was like a roasting oven... Surely they could of just opened it up as an addition to the maze Hahah ;)Indeed, in Saw 2 this bloke got burnt alive in a furnace, scared the crap outta me Gory stuff hahaha, plus serious fire phobia! Eeep! :DAnd I think in Saw 3D there was one too? Haven't seen it though but read about it.Not sure about an actual "roasting oven" though. But I get your point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 All I could think was "at least it wasn't a relavant... or interesting... or entertaining... or fun... or worthwhile attraction that burnt".Well I still think it is a worth while attraction but were all open to our own opinion . shame shame it got burnt ! Especially after the new themimg that they put into it ,I'm still confused why everyone is against this attraction I'f it wasn't a good attraction why were the queses so long last year for it and think when opens again it will busy too I'm pritty shocked That it had a fire and I'f There's anyone that know what happened would love to know what started it I will always. Remember my first time in maze and will never forget it . Good luck Thorpe staff on getting the maze going again . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 I'd imagine it'dve been busy due to it being.. new? Maybe? You know.. people wanting to see what its like.. as its.. new? Yeah..? Oh I dunno.All I know is storm surge is busy only because its extremely popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Can someone get pictures today?Literally just an empty queue, with the doors of the boat closed, and a guy standing by the entrance. Nothing photo worthy, trust me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only places I can think it being on it would be the electric path way or in the frezer.

Tom G Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 I wouldn't class this as 'minor' as has been widely reported if the place is still closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraX Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 You underestimate what fanboys consider to be photo worthy good sir...Lol indeed.As already said, NADA happening at all. The path is open and you can most certainly smell there was a fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 The path is open and you can most certainly smell there was a fire.I honestly thought that was just me being slightly paranoid or something.. Seems as if this will be down longer than I originally thought, if no work has still been going on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukeeeeeee. Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 When I went on Tuesday, the path was closed and there were some staff/engineer people wandering around outside with clipboards... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 I'm a bit confused about Saw Alive... I went on it last year (June I think) and all I saw was some strobe lights and not much else. Occasionally an actor said 'boo' in an entirely unscary way but it was so dark I didn't see them. I was at the front of the group so I should have had a good view of everything going on around me, but I honestly didn't see any of the themeing I've seen in pictures (like the bloke sat by the toilet screaming or whatever he's doing) it was just pitch black!I've read a few pages on here of what people saw in there and some people have said it was genuinely scary, but for me it was just like trying to find the toilet in the middle of the night!So what happened there then? Did anyone else have the same experience as me, or did there just happen to be a power cut when I was in there?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Sounsds like you had any unscarey one I've been in there multiple times and in different places in the row of people and I think you had a time when the actors were not at there best , this years was better mote clear and see more things IMO the actors were everywhere seemed like there was loads double than last year . Which was better for the amusement. The pictures described are just advertisement gimics I think not seen them in the flesh either and must have been in 6 times I would say and the last time was the beat of them all I almost got lost lol which is unlike me because have the ability to see in complete darkness .
