Honestly, I don't think SFMM's FF deserves all the hate (exception: last year's Truth or Dare maze design). If nothing else, I feel they're really been improving their scareactor talent. IMO, the scareactors are on nearly the same level at Knott's.
They also mentioned that Scream Break was a huge success for them, and that it would be returning next year. And that the "House Party" version of Condamed will remain for FF as well.
They acknowledged the poor guest feedback for Truth or Dare, and have enhanced it. While I thought the maze design of last year's Truth or Dare was incredibly lazy and mostly all blank walls with virtually no scenic design at all, the scareactors that were in there really tried their best, and I did get a few scares despite the terrible design. I still don't have high hopes, but virtually any change would be welcome for that one. (I am really hoping they removed the faux gun scene... that was in poor taste in today's climate, IMO.)
After the reveal, I did ask them where the mazes would be located. The Conjuring would be near or behind the games by Tatsu, and Saw will be near the old Tidal Wave area (I suspect the same building where a Slaughterhouse maze used to be there years ago, but that's my own conjecture). I also asked if other SF parks would be getting these mazes. They were a bit cagy, but implied at least some other parks might.
