HHN 31: Bugs: Eaten Alive

[Lucky Planet]

Them: "Wow what a walk"

Me: "Wow, imagine how much capacity that queue could hold and take off the midway"


Also, don't act like you don't think it's cool to walk backstage

The problem will be repeat visits. Even if the line is just 5 minutes at 1:30 AM. The walk back will be the difference if I repeat it or not.

MIB backstage is boring lol

The only cool thing to see was the occasional ride vehicle disassembled, and that's already on the side you would previously queue for the tent.

Over/Under there are

• Live cockroaches in fixtures
• Live spiders in fixtures
• Live Carpenter Ants or Termites

They have lost it

They have lost it

Is that exactly ethical or am I giving too much humanity and credit to these creepy crawlies?

 

[Darko]

Slightly off topic - but with the expected massive lines for the Weeknd, I'm surprised they didn't just put it in a soundstage.

As far as Bugs .. I mean, it can't be any worse than the walk to the parade buildings? ...R-right?

I mean the walk to and from the parade buildings seems worse altogether than the walk to and from Bugs. At least that has a short walk back to the park. The parades have a long walk both ways.

No, they lost the bugs :afraid:, they are free now

Reminder, they disputed the "live bugs" claim

I would rather the exit be a short walk tbh

Also the parade building is a total haul too and froe frfr

Who remembers 2008's walk to Body Collectors?

What a great house but what a HIKE. If you got to do the Legendary Truth Upcharge it was a similar walk

 

[shiekra38]

Or *all* of 2004

This is why I'll always be puzzled about people who want a split USF/IOA event.

Yep, it felt very fractured in a lot of ways

I did enjoy getting to just cruise backstage though, felt like you were doing something wrong

Spoiler

When this one was announced, I was wondering if there would be a scene similar to the spider births from The Mist.

Well…:rock:

The walk is unacceptable with Express.

The MOST over hyped house of the year by far.

A dud of an ending that left my group saying "oh I guess it's over?"

3/5

 

[SeventyOne]

Going to be a YMMV house. I found it kitschy fun, but if you have any sort of bug phobia, sure it will be terrifying.

Spoiler

Lean into the "House of Tomorrow" gimmick at opening but quickly becomes "The Standard HHN Late 20th Century Suburban House" (TM).

Actors seemed to "get" that it's dark comedy, were enjoying themselves.

Not sure if just opening night or going to be a problem after every Nightmare Fuel but house was posted 40 -- Express took 35, friend in standby took close to 90. It's a long straight line, but kept stopping for minutes at a time last night.

 

[Wigglepebbles]

I wish they kept the whole 50’s aspect through the house; random civilians in vintage clothing rather than generic scientists, more vibrant colors and have a distorted lobby music in the house to make it more comedic.

 

[HHN Maddux]

Such a big disappointment.

Starts off great with the 50's room and the warning that bugs are taking over... But instead of a fun 50's house of the future, it just turns into Depths of Fear-style theming with mostly scientists and very few actual big bug scares.

I knew they were gonna rely a lot on victim actors but they didn't look that great in the vid .
I expected more

 

[Disneyson1]

I agree. The opening scene is FANTASTIC. I just can’t wrap my head around why they chose scientists instead of a bunch of Vannah White-style people.

 

[HHN Maddux]

Alright.

Last night, decided to give it another chance knowing it's a much more cheesy campy house rather than a creepy intense one, and I definitely liked it a bit more! Still probably biggest disappointment of the year for me, but it is a fun house. If they did a sequel next year (or later down the line) where maybe the whole town is taken over and it's much more serious and creepy I would be happy.

Also, I haven't been able to watch the full video that plays in the tunnel, does it explain why the air ends up mutating the bugs instead of killing them?
