Dark Universe (Epic Universe)

I keep hearing "scarier than anyone expected" and "scarier than an HHN house" sooooo

Not sure if hype from folks, or actual info, but it's getting me hyped up, that's for sure!

Oh wow that’s insane. Is this in terms of concept art and the storyline or from people who have seen testing/gotten a chance to ride?

Well, to be fair, HHN houses aren't scary anymore lol

I cannot wait to go into Das Steakhouse and order a round of Sloppy Steaks for me and the bois. Better not get any trouble outta that jerk manager!

It's just steaks and water!

I want full on Wolfman fur and prosthetics.

Ok.

$1200 plus tips and taxes.

And that's just the kids pricing....

That one test dummy looks like Chapek. So perhaps that's what he's doing since he got fired.

Sweet. I guess no show scene in the building, though?

Themed barn with static werewolf figure reaching down seems to be the consensus. Probably the best option overall but an animatronic swiping would have been a bit more Epic (Universe).

Not Dark Universe related but I thought I'd share

Maybe they could install a strobe light and make a DiscoWolf.

Since the cars spin, depending on your position, you might not see hardly anything. Will make you want to ride again if you miss the Wolfman the first time.

And transitioning from the bright Florida sun into a darkened barn might mess with what you actually see as well. Hopefully there's a loud howl and/or growl as well in the barn.

I am now of the opinion that an animatronic would be a massive waste of money, tons of smoke, noise and lighting effects will be enough. Hopefully it's hard to spot, or at least you're not guaranteed to see it. Almost like it could be a myth.

Would also make sense if there was something else in the barn on the other side for guests to look at when facing that way. Obviously there will be theming but something else of substance would be cool.

I think a limited motion figure would suffice. Some head, arm, and mouth movement + glowing red eyes, but nothing as sophisticated as what looks to be on Ministry or Monsters Unchained.

 

[rageofthegods]

Yeah, I was thinking the Yeti in Matterhorn. Doesn't have to be crazy, but just move its neck and open its mouth. Really sell the roar.

 

[Jake S]

Yeah, invest the money in a killer audio system rather than a fancy animatronic.
