Thorpe Park Discussion Thread

This is from screamscape "is expected to be built on the Thorpe Belle boat which will be moved over to the “Saw Island” area. Sure to please Haunt lovers, Saw Alive will actually be a season long experience, based on the popularity and attendance increases the park has seen from the 2009 Saw themed coaster ride. More than a “haunt”, Saw Alive is described as a “live action horror maze” where the guests are at the mercy of Jigsaw and will feature six iconic scenes from the first six Saw films." From the park -

Yes its on a boat! The boat you see when entering the park in the lake will be moved next to Saw:The Ride and that will be the house on a boat -

Lol, it is odd. We never have really had haunted houses until the past 4 years. Theme parks picked them up from the USA and they have just got more popular and better so give it 10 years and we will have an equivalent of Halloween Horror Nights at alton towers. -

Lol I think it will be good for 2 weeks then it will have 1 actor and it will be run down. But a good idea and it shows how much haunted houses are taking off in the UK. Halloween at theme parks are getting bigger and bigger. -

Yes they are doing Hex:Live today and Tomorrow. Its run by the staff of rita. Duel:Live was good, i knew an actor was coming because the car slowed down. The smell in the BH was awful! I dont know how the actors stay in there! -

I went yesterday and got a good look at it. The backwards element is there and it is a helex. It looks like the indoor section includes an elevator which takes you to different levels of the building, i say this because there is a huge whole in the ground with no track in it and on another level track with no end so maybe that all links up. Shows where the track lift would go -

Nope, no zombies in the corn! we where the first group through so maybe it was because of that but i was very disappointed with it. The onely zombie i saw was the actors going into the maze. BH was great they kept picking on me and even when we went the wrong way the actor directed us back without breaking character. What did you guys think of duel:Live? -

Alton towers/Blackpool pleasure beach TR!
cmpunk771 replied to cmpunk771's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think rollercoaster is closed, it was sealed off by danger tape and the cars where off the rails on the station platform. -
Yesterday and today i have been at Alton Towers and Blackpool Pleasure beach! We left the house at 5am on a monday morning for the long drive up to Alton Towers, we got there at 9 for our ERT. (Merlin annual pass) I think we did Oblivion 5 times but the Ride-Ops made us walk round the Que to ride agin instead of hopping on the empty seats. Supposedly this was because of the G-Force! We then did Rita a few times then got to Air just as it opened. Air was running fantastic and so was oblivion! The park was very busy with lines from 60-90 minuets! I have to give a shout out to Matt on oblivion because he was so tired but still running around checking everyones restraints so fast! Around 5 was when the lines where quiet again with walk-ons! We got into Air just as the line shut, waited 45 minuets in the heavy rain then got on the ride and we where stuck at the station with it lifting us from our front to on our belles for 10 minuets! After that we got the monorail to the car and drove to our hotel in blackpool. Now i was pretty scared about Blackpool pleasure beach because my dad drooped me off at 8:30 when the park opened at 10. (he had to go to work) I didnt know what to expect from Blackpool, but it was a really good park! I did the big one first and a big disappointment! They where running 1 train for a 1 hour Que, i didn't like this ride, it gave me a headache and was very bumpy and load! Next was the SLC (i forget the name!) and it was smooth, i have heard the stores about these and it was really good! I wont talk about all the rides but i can say i did the tunnel of love on my own!(Saddest thing i have ever done!) Now valhalla was AMAZING, i waited 45 minuets and then they gave me a boat to myself! I was nervous im not going to lie and it was a great ride, the backward drop was weak but the first big one was good, at the bottom is blue mist and i actually held my breath because i thought i was underwater! Someone had left the door open in the torture room so it was light and i could see everything but a few things still got me! Space invader is now completely shut with the doors completely sealed, and same with the wooden rollercoaster! When i was leaving i did the pasaje de terror with is a haunted walkthrough, i have heard good things and once again i was on my own no group! I was expecting a good scare but there was no actors at all! I wanted to say something but my dad was waiting! This was very annoying! Overall it was a good trip but unfortunately no photos because i dropped the camera in valhalla! Hopefully i will visit again soon!

Oh, last time i wane this time of year and we got a ultimate fastpass i think, It gave us 1 ride on everything! I will do that or just ride the big rides when go in a hour early for staying at the hotel and when it gets busy go to the water-park! I may save blackpool for the off season
