Several months later than last year's thread, but looks it may be time to get this up and running:

We have likely HHN lighting trusses up in several locations:





Things have been moving with the F&F queue house (Chucky) for a few months now:

Noticed that F&F only has two tents instead of three.

Sprung facades will probably pop up within the next week or two and if they continue the outdoor tunnel with Sprung 2, that could be our first sign of facade work.

Was one of those tents the cast/break tent?

If not, where did the cast take their breaks?

All three tents were used for The Black Phone. I'm not entirely sure where the actors went for their break lol.

To be fair, the Black Phone portion was nothing more than black hallways and the occasional story scene that allowed it to be compact and lengthy in duration. Any other house that requires more scenic design will make the house feel very short like the MIB tent. Luckily, they also have the F&F queue.

So many trusses already and it's only June 30. Maybe zone construction really is starting way earlier this year? If so, we could be seeing zone props within the next two weeks.

There's not a lot to sink our teeth into yet as far as real info, but it looks like we're approaching some real physical stuff to speculate on!

This isn't all that early, pretty typical for being 2 months out now.

By July 13, 2022, there were nine trusses set up around the park. Eight trusses set up by June 30 is pretty early in my book.

Quick question as someone who hasn't attended the event in a hot minute: Is all this rigging just for lighting/projections and food stands? Mostly asking since these aren't typical scarezone areas.

It is obviously a FNAF scare zone (joking) ... but agree with above that these seem like odd locations?

These are the usual suspects for the first lighting rig locations. Examples from 2021 and 2022:

The trusses that have gone up are usually used for lighting/gobo's (Gobo's being lights with a custom stencil to make a particular image/pattern that's on the ground or up on a building.), and in the coming weeks we'll usually see other trusses that are smack dab in the usual scare zones. While those can be used for lighting as well, they can also be used to create particular set pieces and whatnot. A great example being the Barn from last years Scarecrow zone.

As for the food tents, those will come in later. They're pretty much your usual white pop-up tent with a bit of theming added to the front of them.
