FrightNights04 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 One more place a maze could go is the Sunken Garden, behind Stealth where the Flying Fish used to be! Its unlikely but possible! I doubt they will add another maze now they've told us alot of the details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidders Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 I think he's referring to location only, Sam. The locations aren't as well-publicised as the events themselves and only a few know where the mazes will be until Thorpe make a further announcement/Fright Nights starts. It doesn't look likely the Sunken Gardens will be chosen though. FrightNights04 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 236 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 I very much doubt a maze would go in Sunken Gardens, this is because the area is to small to house a maze as the paths are not that wide and long plus also the noise of nearby Stealth may also detract from factors as well.

th13teen Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 It was just a thought being as everyone is talking about the outside maze, there is somewhere tucked away...but yeah as I said unlikely but you never know what Thorpe Park will do...hay to be fair they are having a Triathlon through the middle of the park!

Coaster Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 It annoys me that they state "no entry will be permitted without a pre-booked ticket." It's false advertising as they do allow people in without pre-booking sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge2002 Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 I don't think they're trying to be misleading, they're just trying to make sure people don't turn up and have to be turned away once they hit capacity weekend.

Mitchada04 Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Seems work might have started. Scare Tour have posted this; We hear that a strange new construction has appeared by Nemesis Inferno at THORPE PARK Official. It looks like a bamboo hut with garden lights around it. Is this the first construction for The Blair Witch Project along the old Canada Creek Railway? Does anyone have any pictures? They've been doing a lot of work down there recently so wouldn't surprise me. Plus, having the building by Inferno would work with regards to the film with the only inside part being at the end, and it will drown out the noise of Inferno, because behind BK I expect it's quite quiet and with some work it could make you feel quite secluded. I would also guess then that the entrance will be CCR station and the exit will be through the gates next to where Inferno starts. Secondly, Theme Park guide have posted this today; Noises coming from inside the old 4D cinema Two weeks ago when I was there a few builders were digging up the paving and relaying it which I thought was strange considering it doesn't get used so surely other areas of the park would benefit more from this sort of work. So I can only guess we'll also see something in here. Exciting times! Phill Pritchard and Inferno 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I noticed the new paving on my last couples of visits. Personally, I thought it was just over a potential development of the building for future years (maybe bringing back a 4D film next year?), but it would seem early to be doing that admittedly.. It is the perfect place for some sort of attraction though if they can sort the building out. Only time will tell I guess! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 OR, H&S decided the area was unsuitable for guests to be wondering around on as the bricks may have come loose from years of use? I wouldn't look into that much, they just redone a road near me but I'm not expecting a new building to sprout from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackR Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I'm on park now, I'll look out for progress but I've only been on the Swarm/Stealth side today and there's nothing to report here. I'll post any worthwhile info I see here throughout the day however. Ryan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Just a quick question - did anyone go in The Freezer (before it became Asylum)? If so then what was it like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I did. In honesty, I can't remember much of it (I was only 9 or 10 at the time, so naturally spent a lot of the maze with my head buried in the person in front of me's back..) but it was a strange experience. It had a lot of strobes and a focus on weird people who were trapped in the freezer. There was lots of mist to simulate fog and cold and that, and featured the usual chainsaw man at the end. All in all, it was pretty much the same premise as the Asylum. The big difference was it wasn't all just chain link fencing, there were a couple of 'scenes' thrown it too.

EC! Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 hmm could this mean Actors on the rides with you so there is no escape? Well that would reduce throughputs! Saw is incredibly busy as it is without closing off the back row for actors. It would fun but silly tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackR Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Just queued 2 hours for Saw and there was a pile up at the air gates, the last thing they would need at Fright Nights is screaming girls on top of the packed loading bay! There's practically nothing to report in terms of Fright Nights though. Nothing on the beach or in the arena and I could see nothing along the CCR pathway or on the Thorpe Farm site. No advertising either other than a slide on the electroning billboard by Nemesis. EDIT: The lights were on in Asylum but both the entrance and exit doors were bolted shut.

Matt 236 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Judging by that phrase on Thorpe's face book, I think it may mean one of the following. 1/ scare actors riding Saw 2/ Actors placed around Saw 3/ Saw will have trains. Going backwards (which may be a lengthily, random and perhaps pointless exercise) 4/ absolutely nothing and just more advertising for the event Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They better not, I'd rather the also silly idea of actors in the back but I would want that, just actors roaming around. Glitch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
