October 1, 201311 yr comment_169674 Sorry, I'm visiting with my friend next Sunday and was hoping to use the Tesco Clubcard vouchers? I just wanted to check that this is ok as we don't want to end up not being able to get into the park! Will it just be like how you use them usually, scanning the print-off voucher on the turnstiles or will we have to get some extra ticket like the AP holders do?
October 1, 201311 yr comment_169681 Anyone going to Fright Night Preview I should be outside the Merlin Pass Entrance at from 9:30 am if any of you want to meet up and go round together.

October 2, 201311 yr comment_169730 Thorpe have also instagramed this: http://instagram.com/p/e-D_moEgBG/ "The scariest movie of all time"? Hmm, maybe not...
October 2, 201311 yr comment_169731 I want too see lots of pak theming this year, that makes all the difference in my opinion!
October 2, 201311 yr comment_169745 Is it just me, or does Blair Witch board say "Some areas include uneven floors and therefore running is permitted".?
October 2, 201311 yr comment_169747 Is it just me, or does Blair Witch board say "Some areas include uneven floors and therefore running is permitted".? I noticed that, but it does seem like the leaf at the bottom is covering the word 'no'.
October 2, 201311 yr comment_169758 The sign for The Blair Witch Project seems to hint at an indoor section - probably just the same description for all the maze signs though. I preferred the old exit run walls for the exit of Asylum with the clown drawing, but I guess it doesn't matter as you don't really see them.
October 3, 201311 yr comment_169776 I don't like the fact that they are using the same fences as last year and on MBV and the fact that it looks like a cattlepen queue. I know its easier to have these fences but I would much rather if there were more 'decorative fences' in a cool layout. I hope they at least decorate the fences for fright nights because they don't look very attractive...
October 3, 201311 yr comment_169779 ^ Don't get you're hopes up. There's literally no need to decorate those fences,,,
October 3, 201311 yr comment_169780 Just because there's no need for them to decorate them, it doesn't mean that they shouldn't though.
October 3, 201311 yr comment_169783 Even banners that just say "THORPE PARK FRIGHT NIGHTS!" would be an improvement... One of the main reasons why I'd like to see the park get permanent fences at the entrance, because it looks dire... Legoland have started doing it as well and it doesn't give a great first impression... Isn't this an ample moment to shout 'cost-cutting'?
October 3, 201311 yr comment_169789 You have to remember, there's going to be hundreds of thousands of people brushing past these fences, holding on to the sides, swaying them back and forward. The only way you'll be able to get a themed fence that is durable enough to withstand this is if its cemented in, and the theming made a permanent fixture. And we all know this isn't an option, as the arena for example is used at other times. I would definitely say its more of a practicality issue rather than a cost one. Its not exactly cheap to buy that type of temporary fencing (that's if they even own it, it could be rented?). I think its just one of those facts of life that you have to accept. As for the entrance, its been agreed a long time that Thorpe hate the fencing, but there's no point making a permanent fixture if they're going to rebuild the entire entrance when the hotel finally gets built.
