Doin' the nasty from what I remember...In a particular little film, as I would assume he would be alongside this guy--
To be far, I haven't seen a lot of reviews saying they hated the maze. It's focus on comedy just has it lower on lists.
HHN Preview Night Quick Reviews
9. Blumhouse-Really disappointing. Purge and Sinister scenes are over so quickly, and then Insidious goes on and on. Still not a horrible house, just very disjointed, and Insidious 4 doesn't come out until January and takes up a huge chunk of the house.
8. The Hive-Definitely the creepiest house, just understaffed and the sets were generic.
7. Saw-I don't really think the concept works for a house. With the victims in the film trapped in a single spot, it makes the house more of a series of vignettes than and actual location you would walk through.
6. The Shining-I'm not the biggest fan of the film, but it does what it has to. Hedge maze, Gold Room, and elevator scene are all highlights.
5. Ash-Good representation of the show as the comedy house for the year. Guests that haven't seen the show will he so confused, but it is pretty well done.
4. Scarecrow-The loudest and most in your face house. Also very clausterphobic, and has some cool scenes.
3. AHS-Probably 1/2 Asylum, 1/4 Coven, 1/4 Roanoke. Well decorated house, tho again, not super scary.
2. The Fallen-Great concept of demons taking over a church. Not the scariest, but the sets and character design are great.
1. Dead Waters-This might be my favorite house out of the last five years. The facade is jawdropping and the scenes are done at such a large scale. Can't wait to keep doing this one over and over.

I'm completely drawing a blank on the facade. Nothing crazy.
Traps:
Bear trap, Buckethead, face through knives, pound of flesh, razor wire, one with two blocks of ice that squished a head, jumper cables on someone in a bathtub. I know there were a few more, I'm just drawing a blank, sorry
I liked the Ash house. It's funny, the sets are great, and there's a few scares.
That being said, those who haven't seen the show will be most confused.
Yeah, i'm not even sure I remember there being a facade. Certainly nothing like Asylum had in there for 25.

What was in the Asylum and Coven sections of AHS? Roanoke seems the easiest to picture in a maze so idk what to expect from the other two
Lobby with stairs, rec room with Santa, experiment room, Shacath scene, hallway with cell doors, hallway with Sister Mary Eunice, Adam Levine being attacked by Bloody Face.
Butler with Dolls, greenhouse, the room where Delphine was kept locked up, hallway with Bull Man, hallway with Papa Legba.

Hey, I'm over from Hollywood. I was wondering what was in the Shining? Especially how did they do the Blood elevator + Here's Johnny?
Edit: Also, how was the Gold Room? Was it like Hollywood (Skeletons)?
Here's Johnny was a twisting hallway of doors with Jack coming through on different sides. Blood elevator is done at about 2/3 scale, behind glass with blood spilling out. Good as they could have done. Gold Room was my favorite scene. Scaled down version of the movie, with the bar and people dancing.
