This is my third favorite house this year

The Video on the tram is funny and people seem to be liking it which is nice, those can be hit or miss

The actors are having a fun time and seen them trying different spots many times every night

I like the extra holiday lights on the houses not even in the walking area...thats cool

I enjoy the vikki and Pale Girl are getting so much screen time on this

Its cool they have some Holidays in hell costumes in this house

The scene with Art and Pale girl are using the giant Machine gun to me is genuinely on of the funniest things they have done at HHN

The only things that need to be improved are the meet and greets. Art comes out the line fills out and he doesn't come out for another hour or longer....no wait times on the app so its hit or miss if you will get a photo with him. They need to hire another actors and have at match 15 mins of no Art taking photos, especially on the Tram. Like that one is insane he can not be there for an hour

What I do love about the Terror Tram is the freedom some actors have the first room you enter they have been messing around where the actors on depending on crowds so been enjoying that

Not sure whats up with the Art Meet and greets, yesterday was told by the TM Art was not coming out all night for the Hollywood sing and then TMs had a latter and were fixing things around the Santa art area....so kind of bumped he's been so hard to catch to get a photo with

I dont want to try to bug the roaming Arts...but I think more will if they can't get these photo ops to be up more

No shot… that’s like the centerpiece of the whole tram

I was not there......it was the funniest thing ever

I hope its coming back

Alright who complained?

 

[Jerroddragon]

Someone pointed out we had that Helicopter crash last week

Could that be related?

It's not out of the question, but HHN has had trouble with gun props for a hot minute now, so it's probably a little bit of both. They've made a point to not have a single gun prop that aims directly at guests in 10 ish years, always angling them to either have the character firing so it's equally possible it sometimes strayed too close to pointing at guests and a few too many complained about that being disturbing, but it definitely doesn't feel like a coincidence that they'd take this away due to the helicopter crash being so close to home.

I'm sorry but this is ridiculous. Terrible things happen around us all of the time. You're willingly at an event that has people jump out and scare you with various fake weapons. Somehow an evil clown point a machine gun at the sky or point it at guests from a distance is too far?

lol

People are so strange to me....its all fake...I'd be honored if Art fired the gun at me...its all fake

If its because of the events, thats sucks for everyone but I understand

"listen you can stab me, shot me with fake blood and have a clown walking around with Santa's head, have a girl covered in blood threatening to brick me in the face....but I will draw the line at Machine gun violence" lol

It's just speculation on my end but the way that the firearms have been removed mid event in the past always made me feel like it was a directive coming from higher in the Universal food chain than from the Horror Nights team. Some executive sees a clip and shuts it down.

Also worth noting that the concept art for Midsummer Scream showed what was clearly a World War 2 era Anti-Aircraft emplacement, while what we actually ended up with with much more of a gun-gun. Still just speculating, but they may have been approved for one but not the other.

Regardless, its a shame that it's gone now, having the plane crash be part of the maze's story instead of just randomly having a crashed plane off to your left was a big plus for the tram this year in my book.

Yeah, I think enough has had to be removed in the past from complaints (damnation army posters in dark christmas, the barker in the upper lot zone, bill and ted etc.) post 2010s they're taking these actions more as preventative measures out of an excess of caution more than as a result of complaints that have actually been made.
I wouldn't write it off just yet anyhow, it was a crucial component of that scene and the actors are still out on that platform kinda just milling about, so I wouldn't be surprised if in a few weeks they bring it back modified so it can no longer face towards guests at all, but I wouldn't guarantee it.

Machine Gun is back. All is good.

 

[Jerroddragon]

Thank god...I saw some many making this into a big deal and I was like....lets wait a day or two before telling everyone its 100% gone

 

[calcoaster43]

I really love that this year's TT is somewhat rebirthing Dark Christmas' vibe. Maybe it'll eventually come back around as a SZ.

I'd be in favor of them building a storyline all around the twisted Nutcracker characters at the start

 

[Jerroddragon]

i went last night, the machine gun is still there

Happy it was a one day thing

Also I love how the Terror Tram goes from no line to 60-90 mins within a snap....not sure what happens but I normally go on it once or twice with no lines then I come off and the line is insane....just funny
