Hopefully this draws people...and maybe we get a Batman themed Maze this year? I mean they will have tons of Costumes and props just lying around after summer

Wouldn't be this year, but location-wise, it'd be a good house to take over the SAW venue (although I'd hope for a new ride by then)

WB did an Arkham Asylum house back in 2018. It was really good & depending on when you went through, you'd get a different Batman villain in 2 of the scenes. I have a few photos from it since I worked the event. And yes, Joker was the main focal point with Harley Quinn being your final scare.

I mean, I'd be ok if they took aftermath and just had Villains Dressed up and made mini lairs. Really would be a good win then you can have Batman in the area where the Fire is near his car.

I have no intel, but suspect it'll be mostly walk around characters/meet & greet, food items, and maybe some photo ops.

Still, even that would be fun (especially if they get some interesting characters), but I'm not expecting much more than that. Anything else they announce would be a bonus.

While I absolutely love Aftermath, it's time to retire it since it hasn't been on the same level of 2017.

I'd rather they not have a DC-thened house in that location so far away from Universe/Metropolis.

I'd be cool with keeping the zombie theme, but giving it a full makeover & upgrade to match the SZ nearby.

There isn't space to relocate the Batmobile to be within the Aftermath "venue" among all the debris/wrecked cars.

I still believe that VAULT 666 is getting replaced this year. Not sure about The Conjuring. But if anyone sees any "clean up" around Aftermath, it could also be among the "extinct" for 2024.

I mean, I'm taking whats realistic with Six Flags

I'd love a full blown new maze but...just saying Aftermath is an easy switch to batman...it has props from the old show and just add some green lighting to a room with Riddler in it and what not....better then another year of just aftermath which is my guess what they will do

 

[Wesker69]

It could "easily" (use that term loosely lol) be done with the different rooms the house offers.

 

[BillM]

The umbrellas

 

[Wesker69]

Yea I can't defend them on that... not even a "at least they tried".

I wonder if they'll have lights too

 

[Ron101]

Wow… the decisions this park makes never cease to amaze me.

 

[Jerroddragon]

Went on Thursday

1) The new parking is great...but as far as I could tell NO markers of what area your in....so feel like you could lose your car
2) The security here is much quicker then Disney just walk in and had no issues
3) Lines were long because it was grad night
4) The Horror Store is cool near the after math maze area
5) The Flash ride is just gone...for nothing? lol
6) Wonder Woman was closed but the Q building looked nice

Fortunately, those umbrellas were temporary and have already been removed.

Also, the Cedar Fair/Six Flags merger is imminent.

Jet Stream is finally open, and they ditched the umbrellas. They also redid the floor of the bridge.

Jet Stream is now open, minus the umbrellas! Like the plank floor.

When I was at the park yesterday, everything was open except WW, Crazanity, and FT. Though Goliath was in single train ops, and TC was only in two. But to give the park a bit of credit (which there isn't much to give anymore), the ops were very enthusiastic.

I've heard reports WW has been testing, but I didn't see it when I was there... but I also wasn't there for very long, popping in quickly after my workday.

WW was testing when I went on Wednesday

Is Wonder Woman broken? Being refurbished? Must have missed that.

Having their newest, heavily advertised coaster closed without warning is a terrible look!

And in the one time of year (summer) when they actually need to put their best foot forward. Six Flags!
