I wonder if it’ll have the famous
Psychoscarepy poop smell or if it’ll be like the Crow room from Scarecrow but with Monkeys
I’m very excited for the catacombs section.House spoilers - because people are asking...
But how in depth will I go?
That is the question.
Do I keep it general?
Like Treatment - Underground - City?
Or scene names and descriptions?
I think, sure.
“Anyone who leaves the line will be placed in immediate quarantine for the duration of the outbreak.”
Outbreak - You’re at the treatment facility to get your cure.
Monkey Lab - Buy my merch
Metro Car - Get out however you can.
Platform - Is that the zombie cart?
Le Shaft - Getting darker...
Catacombs - Is the doctor in? I hope so.
Crypt - Is this the cure, or is it the disease?
Alleyway - Maybe the streets are safer.
Cafe/Finale - Wait... there’s no landmarks?
I don’t know for sure, but I suspect everything in the house to be zombified.I’m very excited for the catacombs section.
I assume there are not just zombies in the house then? There will be humans(pre zombie) and a monkey?
So far I haven’t heard the most favorable things about this. I wasn’t as big a fan of the first one as most, but I’m curious, given that it was such a fan favorite.

Asked about this on Twitter, heard first half better than second. Also general sentiment seems to be all the originals are solid, you need to be great to stand out.
The people that are saying it’s too dark are the ones who come through when it’s still light outside. You don’t have enough time to let your eyes adjust and you can’t see. Also, people are saying that the scareactors in the house are touching them, when they are not. So if you see anyone complaining that someone in Dead exposure touched them, it’s false. Most likely they walked into them, because they have been doing that a lot recently.Yeah who knows at this point. Hoping at least one of the originals is a consensus standout. Seems Poltergeist "won" EP (which is like an NFL team being undefeated in the preseason, of course).
EDIT: Still not getting very good reviews on Twitter, but everything that's being said (too dark, same scare tactic throughout, feels cheap) applied to the first one. Weird.

Mind you if you hated the original or if u hate glow in the dark or 3D houses then you might hate this just in general terms. ( this house almost feels like a 3D house.
This is about all I can agree with you on in your post--original is a probably top 10 house for me. I "got" the minimalist 2-D sets and glow paint in the original--we were walking through a stylized newspaper. Here. what's the creative justification? It just comes off as cheap, something a local haunt (or a national haunt stretching an 8-house budget to make 10 houses) does to save cash. Still a scary house--most frightening I've seen so far, arguably the only one--but I've have preferred it didn't try to live up to the legendary reputation of the original.

The same thing happened with that Universal Monsters house we had years ago where everything was painted glow in the dark and had that cheap feeling to it,
I'm not sure what y'all are talking about, I love this house. It's by far the most intense, has really creative scares and a great art style. It's very disorienting and terrifying because of that. The sets are also really beautiful if you manage to get your brain together, I recall seeing a house facade in the middle of the house and it looked very genuine. This is one of my contenders for HotY, along with 6 other houses.
