Benin Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 The idea of "Edir Eht - WAS" horrifies me beyond compare... The idea of actors does not factor logically into not have stupidly long queues... I thought the park were meant to be reducing queues?

Ricky Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I very much doubt they would pay someone to sit on SAW for 7 hours, it would be a massive waste of money! It will be interesting to see what comes of this #FrightNights marketing picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 The occasional (and I mean very occasional) actor filling a spare seat on Saw would be fine (quite funny tbh!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma1980 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 And how exactly do they act when they have no hiding spaces, effects to use oh and are strapped to a seat? Because they would just be there saying nothing staring in the beginning stages of the ride or hanging around the stairwell - now that would **** me up cos I always hate the stairwell queue for saw lol The occasional (and I mean very occasional) actor filling a spare seat on Saw would be fine (quite funny tbh!) Yep ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 One thing I would like to see at this year's Fright Nights is scarier looking actors. The roaming actors last year were very scary looking (in comparison to the ones in the mazes), but the actors in the mazes didn't really look very scary to be honest (mostly just white facepaint with blood on). A few of the actors wearing masks would make the mazes a lot scarier - I reckon this is likely to happen this year because the actors are going to be representing horror film characters.

c1hrisin Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 They wouldn't have stairs.. They would have to light it and stop people from being scared (by actors or distractions) so they don't fall down. H&S and all that shizzle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) The Sanctuary also uses stairs. All well and good suggesting using stairs for a Thorpe maze, but what place is suitable for a maze and could utilise stairs? I can't think of anywhere. For a Cabin in the Woods maze, I wouldn't be surprised if it just focuses on what section of the film - either just being in the cabin, just being in the woods, or just being in the laboratory thing. Edited September 5, 2013 by Tommy Not everyone has seen the film! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I've just had a thought. Thorpe's official website hasn't even revealed the lineup for the event yet, so only facebook fans (and a few others who have heard) know the lineup. It's surprising that their main website hasn't given much in the way of information about the event yet - surely by now (with less than a month to go) the mazes should be on the website?

H&S and all that shizzle Hence Terror of the Towers - stairs sections I noted theming dropped and simply and light up with what I recall as rope lighting? Actors clearly told not to go near them to induce a shock and someone falling! c1hrisin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stretchy Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Stairs aren't unheard of in scare mazes. Both Terror of the Towers and Sanctuary have stairs in them at Towers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge2002 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 So its perfectly acceptable to literally shove someone into a 1m x 1m hole and make them crawl through it, but heaven forbid someone go anywhere near a staircase!

EC! Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Watched My Bloody Valentine, god what a rubbish film that is, so predictable, that maze I will have to do to see if its as bad as the movie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
