JoshC. Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 Confuzzled - there is an 'edit' button in the bottom right hand corner of your posts. Rather than posting again and again, why not use this to add more information; it is rather annoying seeing consecutive posts... Strange that there's no specific mention of a new attraction in those pages though. Stokesyboy and Sidders 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 Might not have been announced by the time of press... Then again, I've not received this magazine since the first one... Bit crap really... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 Might not have been announced by the time of press... Ah, didn't think of that actually. Would've thought though that, considering Se7en is not present, they would have had some sort of idea of a new attraction replacing it. Meh, not really like it's important; there's a new attraction replacing an old one, which is what matters when it comes down to it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbles1 Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 Is it just me, or does that look like they've edited the human centipede poster, changing the colour to red and removing the hands? JoshC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 As a side-by-side comparison. Looks very similar in my opinion; as if Thorpe have drawn inspiration from it. Would love to see a maze which furthers Experiment 10's concept of forcing you into situations which aren't just walking in a conga line; being controlled by people into doing things against your will and such. Not sure how feasible that would be, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackR Posted September 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 the nation's Thrill Capital is taken over by the criminally insane in the latest instalment of its now legendary FRIGHT NIGHTS event. Have the criminally insane ever been affiliated with FN before? Could be a hint towards the new maze... It also said that the attraction will be announced on Thorpe's Facebook page; I'm certainly keeping my eyes peeled on there! Also, I think E10 is the only main FN attraction that has been added since Thorpe properly focused on their new target audience and it is marginally better than the others scares wise (maybe not The Asylum). Hopefully now that Thorpe have a young adult target audience and have started to concentrated on it completely, their new FN attractions will be a lot scarier to cater for the young adults, who may want better scares, going through. I could be looking too far into this, but I think the quality of the mazes may start getting better than the likes of The Curse and start become more extreme like The Asylum and E10.

JackR Posted September 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 The Asylum seems to fit that bill pretty well. I always thought that was just insane people, not criminally insane? Oh well, we'll know this time next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornflakes Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 I always thought that was just insane people, not criminally insane? Oh well, we'll know this time next week.I would generally consider a madman with a chainsaw to be criminally insane. JackR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjh123horry Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 I know its a bit far fetched, but 'criminally insane', did alton towers not have a maze based around 2 insane criminals? And has such maze been removed from the towers this year? Just a thought. They might make out that the hamble twins have been moved to a 'secure' asylum bear london and escaped? Who knows though.

JackR Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 It would be a laugh if they were in The Asylum this year. Most people would not realise who they are, but the masks would certainly do their jobs at scaring people! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokesyboy Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Yesterday the light was on in Asylum building and we got a quick picture in the little gap at the entrance, doesn't look like a lot is going on in this bit but wonder what is round the corner! https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=379411145465983&set=a.318875528186212.72241.315760841831014&type=1&theater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jom222 Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 They should do a maze of going through a psychiatric ward or something like that with actors dressed up as crazy patients and call the maze - THE WARD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confuzzled Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Ummm have you heard of this maze called The Asylum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC.

Surely they've got that pretty much covered with Asylum? Basically crazy patients that have been locked away. Unless you were thinking of something quite different to how Asylum currently is?

Coaster Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 They should do a maze of going through a psychiatric ward or something like that with actors dressed up as crazy patients and call the maze - THE WARD.That would just be Asylum with a different name.

JackR Posted September 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 I wonder what those doors with locks on are there for? The one to the left was the gap I was talking about in my last update that was boarded up (the way it is in this picture now). There was also some lights on in Hellgate last Wednesday. Does anybody know when this new attraction is set to be announced? Credit to Stokesyboy of course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confuzzled Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 They have not revealed the date it is being announced but it shall be definitely announced this week! Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 That is right by the entrance isn't it Jack? If so, those doors might be from back when The Showcase was used for shows? Or possibly be used as storage for stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaz Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Ranger County Asylum I'm pretty excited for FN now! Those signs have been used in that maze for at least two years now. The Asylum will stay the same (albeit the usual slight change of layout). E10 will return with the same layout (I believe). The curse won't change, unfortunately. I believe Se7en will not return and will be replaced with a new attraction. Sent from my iPad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
