JoshC. Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Curse and Hellgate not being built. http://www.thorpepark.com/frightnights/The Curse will, however, be returning.. I think we'd all hope that Thorpe wouldn't get rid of two mazes, and only replace them with one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I stand corrected! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I agree. A tent's a tent. It doesn't bother me by being there. There's no real alternative is there? Maybe if they bought a black tent.. but um yeah. A themed tent maybe, some kind of facade perhaps. Not just a tent pretending to be a boat.

Michelle Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I didn't go to Fright Nights last year and was wondering if those of you who did could help me. I'm arranging a trip but I'm not sure how busy the first weekend is likely to be. I know none of you are able to predict the future, but how busy was it last year?

Mattgwise Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I went on the first saturday of last years event and it was actually very quiet and we had ridden all rides by 3pm and then got on all 4 mazes by about 7:30pm. I even got 8 rerides (had to exit train and then walked straight through gate near the baggage hut) on Stealth at around 9:30pm which has never happened for me ever. I am planning to go the first saturday again this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

th13teen Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 I went on the second weekend on Saturday, and it was so quiet, I rode most mazes more than once and all rides more than once! To top it all off we didnt even enter the park untill gone 2, so it really will be quite for the first 2 weekends but then after that it will just be 2 hour queue 3 hours queue etc!!!

MikeC Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 The doors to Asylum were open today and they were doing some maintenance (see picture below), also they have put up the scary wall thingy and the front door to Asylum that's in that stage area. They were working on the lights when I left :)http://lockerz.com/s/141012344 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackR Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Looks pretty spooky, sorry if I sound stupid but I've never been in the Asylum so is that at the start or end of it? I know you said the front door was open, but is that by the doors that say 'keep out' on them or is that specific part pictured in the link at the entrance?

StevenVig Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 that picture shows the very ending of the attraction, as your walking or in some cases, running out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamY Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Forgot to mention that in my TR from Wednesday actually, the front door of the Asylum was open then as I walked past - very exciting to be able to see that sign on the wall and just imagine turning left and walking down that corridor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laelda_95 Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 I'm actually really excited for fright nights. I'm going on the 14th after school with my mate who hates mazes..Could be interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laelda_95 Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 You know on the 6th? Annual Pass holders can get free entrance.. They sent me a confirmation thing, with a code and stuff. I dont have a printer, so if I just get the code from it, will that be okay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason10 Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 I know this may sound stupid, but if I have a standard Merlin annual pass and I'm going on the 8th, do I have to pay the £5 reservation fee? Or could I turn up and use my annual pass as normal without having payed the fee? It's not very clear on the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not very clear on the website.I'm going on the 8th too Yes, you have to pay the £5 fee, you can book it online or get it on the day (I think.) The £5 fee applies to all Fright Night days.

holtjammy16 Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Find haunting figures and twisted Birthday surprises whilst you find your way around park.Be careful not to get lost...from Thorpe's websitealsoSince the thorpe park website has no option to book a FN ticket for a thorpe park annual pass, my mum bought the one for the merlin annual pass.. Should this be okay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pluk Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 ^ Yes, Barry and Steward are pretty amazing. I love magic, I love comedy, I love sick stuff. They really must not be missed (if your not too squeamish!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScaryMB Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Anyone coming to the ScareTOUR trip with exclusive behind the scenes access to Experiment 10?http://scaretour.weebly.com/thorpe-park-experiment-10-exclusive-1410.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheepie Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 ^ I take it you're at Broadditch on the 13th, for Press Night? You're in for a treat. Heard some early reviews from Staff Preview evening about experiment 10 and they have all been tremendous and glowing. One comment described it as on "another level". Looking forward to reviews from tomorrow evening and onwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One comment described it as on "another level". Looking forward to reviews from tomorrow evening and onwards. Same. There's such a huge difference between staff getting a free go with no queues and paying people having to wait in long lines for a go. One remembers how loved Seven was when it first opened in 2005... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorpeparkjack Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Wow, exicting stuff! Can't wait to check it out this evening! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokesyboy Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Couple of questions!This will be my first fright nights (8th) and I'm not too sure how to go about it, I have a premium annual pass so if I'm right in thinking I can just turn up and go in? My mate on the other hand only has a Standard pass, do we have to call up and get it sorted? (the £5 extra he has to pay) or can he pay on the door when he arrives?Also got two other mates interested in going, are they able to still do 2 for 1's?
