Halloween Horror Nights 27 General Discussion

I'm more concerned about the location of Blumhouse maze (MIB tent) than I am about the IPS involved. Maybe it was just the fact that Lunatics Playground wasn't the best introductory house, but I didn't think that the tent lent itself that well to a maze.

I'm more worried about Shrek. 2/2 duds in that location. I hated Asylum, and I hated Krampus even more XD

I'm gonna have to disagree... BOTH of those houses were so much fun to walk through!!
I think saw will be an interesting match for the Shrek theater though considering the previous two years this location has housed some of the "less serious" mazes

I liked Krampus, but I think it would've been better in a different location.

 

[JMalez]

The only other place Krampus really could've gone would have been a soundstage since it needed some pretty serious A/C

Oh trust me I realize I'm in the minority there. I think it was just my timing with Krampus. I rarely saw any actors in there, and I never got the Krampus scare out of the 8 times I went through it XD

I'm curious to see how Saw works too, in 09 it was in the Jaws queue so this should be a sizeable improvement

Im curious as well. If im not mistaken Murdy said that we would "be in a trap" at one point so i'm hoping this is also true for the Orlando version

My bet is that our "interactive" trap will be the Razor Wire maze. To be honest if they really wanted to have pay up houses they could have had Saw be one where you get to be in the traps

im trying to think of ways the house can be interactive

By interactive they might just mean you walk through(why I guessed Razor Wire); the Bucket Head trap from Jigsaw could be interactive too but I don't know how they'd do it

 

[JMalez]

should've included this is my last post... Murdy also stated that the trap might have to do with smell

Possibly Bathroom Trap? Pig Vat? Saw should be a good maze and since it's in a larger location I'm expecting it to be so much better than 09's(which wasn't bad but was short and time based)

 

[hhnlover]

maybe it can be something like the saw 4 bedroom trap where you can chose which body part to remove,

 

[hhnlover]

also which trap was the best used in the 2009 house?

I'm sorry but this is absurd imo. You're allowed to have an opinion but neither of those houses can be considered duds by any account. To each their own but :jaw:

I was somewhat meh on Krampus, but set design was not one of the house's issues--if anything, that was its saving grace. Other than not being able to go as large/tall, I see Shrek as almost on par with the soundstages, much better than any tent venue.

 

[JMalez]

Personally, I was hoping Ash vs Evil dead would end up in the Shrek theater and Saw would end up in the parade building. Im so pumped for AVED

 

[orlandoiloveyou]

Asylum and Krampus were severely lacking in scares. I don't know if that has anything to do with the venue though. But I will say the two big complaints I had for Krampus was how bright it was and how short it was. Asylum seemed to be average length but Krampus felt like it ended right as it got its momentum.

So hopefully since Sae doesn't require multiple facades it will be able to be dark long and scarier.

I've got a feeling that what Saw lacks in jump scares it will make up for in set/trap design and non-scare performances
