The highest rated maze of 2013 and now as it happens of all time is Insidious: Into The Further. Even though The Thing: Assimilation will be my top favorite, Insidious is right up there with it.
I agree, the behind the screams have been disappointing this year. I really wanted to see the making of the Insidious maze and Evil Dead mazes. So far the only one that has been somewhat interesting has been El Cucuy.
I do personally miss the idea of having an Icon, like The Director, Jack or even Jason, Leatherface and Freddy. Next year if they do Trick r' Treat they could easily use Sam as an Icon.
I agree once again, especially since 90% of our mazes are outside tarp structures. It would be quite difficult to pull of the tricks that Orlando performs due to space.
I agree completely Jon, from past experience I know where to look for every scare area in a maze and even though it will make me jump once in a while, it's still familiar territory. Don't get me wrong I love the event to bits but some of the scare tactics need to be upgraded for new experiences...
I agree with you, as a long time fan you do notice these reused props and it does get bothersome. For example both times in the Black Sabbath I get to the Asylum and my eyes instantly go to the Saw maze box prop. It's unfortunate because I did enjoy the maze but it sucked to be taken out of...
My maze line up for 2014
Resident Evil: Escape from Raccoon City/ Dead Space: Make us whole
American Werewolf In London: Fear by Moonlight
Insidious Chapter 3
Sleepy Hollow: Apocalypse Rising
Trick r' Treat
Gothic Universal monsters: A return to the classic monsters with more of a dark...
Happy to report El Cucuy has changed my mind. They added story signs in the line with a clear narration from Danny Trejo. The empty corridor has now a El Cucuy in it which tricked us into thinking it was a universal employee (Well played El Cucuy well played). They added more scare actors who to...
I agree however the only wait times that were excessive when I went Day one were Black Sabbath and The Walking Dead. Every other maze was at expected wait times. Have to disagree with the comments on the mazes.
I went day one and barring the house of horrors (which never really changes) the biggest disappointment for me was El Cucuy. Having loved La Llorona the past two years I had high hopes for it. Strong concept, interesting designs it had a lot going for it. However I came walking out so let down...
I agree with this list all except reverse Insidious and El Cucuy. First time I went through Insidious they had the fog effects in the further and it made it more terrifying. The prize I got was a spectral sightings card by Elise Rainer and Specs and Tucker. By far my favorite maze of the night...
Yeah your right turns out he was joking, the only reason I believed was because I know Leigh Whannel one night is going to play Specs, so it was possible other actors from the properties would participate.
Hit the lower lot first and head straight for the back lot tram. Do Black Sabbath first then The Walking Dead. Opening nights times got to around 160 minutes. Then come back and do Insidious and Evil dead. Proceed to the upper lot and hit the Terror Tram, go straight from there to El Cucuy and...
