The Berserkers tent is pretty permanent and not easily dissasembled. My opinion on those locations for a haunt attraction is that they are too "out in the open" and very blatant for the summer season leading to lots of confused guests asking how to get on "that ride"

I would like to make a note that if you are an employee of any Cedar Fair park you risk your job endorsing and releasing such info to the public on a forum like this. One of the reasons why I cautiously limit what I post on here as some of the information I hear hasn't been released to the general public yet.

Thanks. I didn't quite understand that when I looked at the calendar a couple days ago but makes sense now. The haunt at my home park doesn't close to re-open so this is something I haven't seen before.

Hey Guys, I plan to visit KSF this fall coming from Valleyfair. Are the dates for KSF something that gets released to the Press just like the mazes do or are they already posted somewhere? I'm hoping to find a day that doesn't interfere with my job at Valleyscare but will probably have to take a day off for this trip. Thanks.

I saw him today as I was working walking with Brad Marcy and a few other people. I do not remember seeing Rob Decker.

No. Unless it was a very short event - a few weekends in late November IF the weather cooperates. It gets too cold here. Us, Michigan's Adventure, and Dorney Park are unlikely to ever get Winter Fest. I doubt Cedar Point or Canada's Wonderland will get it either. Post deleted

I was in Haunt this past season and I will be in Park Services this summer. I didn't hesitate in choosing a department because I already knew the best one

If we're going to be considered a family friendly park then that should be our excuse to get a winterfest. To be honest I do see one coming our way in the near future.

Here's a low light berserkers video. You can mostly see what happens.

The advocate group had nothing to do with dinoslaugher. That was discontinued because the staff was needed elsewhere.

I say dont do anything to the other attractions until they are told to. The group wanted fear VR down. Maybe they wanted other asylum attractions down but we shouldnt have to remove other asylums until we are told to remove them specifically. And why is eternitiy infirmary still standing? Would cedar fair not want to do anything to their beloved cedar point? EDIT After seeing a statement on a valleyscare facebook page someone had a point that it wasnt stated that this is permanent. there's a chance they closed the attractions to prevent further problems. In a year they could bring back the mazes when people are getting triggered at something else.

Taste of valleyfair v2.0

I dont think enough people have experienced skeleton key to know what goes on over there. So I better buy my passes before its gone

Woah, when did this all happen? Please tell me this isn't related to the FearVR situation in California. Also, what is happening with Dinoslaughter? I know it's hilariously bad, but with a name like Dinoslaughter they probably knew that was how it was going to turn out going in so why are they just now deciding to shut it down? Speaking of Dinoslaughter, what was the deal with that random fun house tunnel at the beginning? The only thing I can think of is traveling back in time? It is. It was shut down for that reason. The advocate group is out to shut them all down. Eternity Infirmary is still standing however. Cedar Point probably wont remove it until they are forced to. And yes it is for time travel. Dino was discontinued because they needed the staff elsewhere.

it seems that asylum unleashed has been discontinued and whatever plans to bring it back as a maze haze been seized. It's no longer on the website. Not to mention dinoslaughter is also no longer on the website.

A lot of parks are RMC'ING their rides. I'd like to see renegade get a GCI treatment. Oh wait.... S/

Not sure. All i know is that it was in the plans so they scrapped old asylum. Asylum will probably return in a maze form in the near future. I actually think the haunt department did a good job on bringing back asylum in some shape or form. Truthfully if they didnt bring it back or replace london. That would mean we'd have lost 2 attractions and only have 5 mazes. We are down one maze but up one scarezone. If i were most of you I wouldn't complain. This is valleyfair, not Hallowen Horror Nights. Be happy they gave us something instead of nothing. (Not reffering to you Mdcastle. This post was a response and then a general statement.) EDIT: Beserkers has the potential to be altered and changed and it probably will. They can edit the story to make it longer. London burned in the spring. They didnt have long to fully plan the maze and I think they did a good job to conjure something up with the time they had. Im glad they didnt re build london. Beserkers will more than likely become better. In order to enjoy it this year you have to have good taste and have the right expectations.

If you actually listen to the ceremony that's not what happens. The monsters who take the girl are obviously sent by freyia. "Step aside butler, and see what haunt is REALLY about" they are sent by freyia and go take the girl. You may have seen the friday performance where the butler opens the gate for the monsters to get through there's normally a zombie who opens that as the butler sits and watches what happens. But they were low on staff so he opened it. Watch my video to look back at it. I posted the link on an earlier page in this discussion.

I feel like I've explained the london terror fire scenario over a thousand times. Asylum was going to be re built from scratch in a permanent building and they didnt need the old props/walls because it was going to be brand new. Then an arsonist burned london to the ground (London Terror has a whole new meaning now ) and they had to use the budget to replace london with something. Instead of loosing 2 mazes they went with loosing one. Since they had to pay to clean out and re build the london tent structure why no put off asylum for a year and re build something in londons place. Beserkers was a last minute idea and they didnt have much time to plan it. I see it has potential and will probably become a better experience. And it was originally in the plans to completely cut asylum for a year. But they brought it back in some form. So they did NOT remove it to ruin our haunt experience. Valleyfair does not have near enough haunt actor staff to fulfil every guests experience. So thats why the actors target the GP since they are more easily scared. If you want a better experience try acting like your scared and they'll go for you. So to sum it up. London and asylum had issues that prevented them from happening this year. If someone is to ask why asylum was a scarezone I will just copy and paste this text.

Not trying to start a war but I personally feel WOF's is the gold standard for the chain I see what you mean about that. Im just kinda bored about the overlord thing. I think VF's is unique in the very least WOF's is still my favorite but I do commend Valleyfair for trying something new. I think every Halloween event deserves an awesome opening ceremony. I couldn't imagine WOF's Haunt starting out with anything but Overlord's Awakening. We were probably forced to try something new with the fact that north star took up the stage space where the ceremony usually is.

I think VF's is unique in the very least Does VF at least have a parade of monsters through the park after the awakening? I think the parade is mostly before. They march to the stage and select monsters from each attraction board the train. After the ceremony I guess they march to their mazes.
