Swoosh Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 You'll probably have to share with DoD's creeps if they build you guys one in 'Shed. Do they share with Asylum now or do they get to use the Canine Junction dressing room area for their's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jive Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 That's funky. I saw your post and responded but then yours showed up under mine. DoD uses the Canine Cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vffreak07 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Good move for WOF! Do you guys think that other CF parks will start doing this? I mean, we're seeing it happen to Kings Island, and now WOF. Could we see it happen at other haunts? Also I don't see Dorney doing their haunt anymore after next year. They don't even have a site for theres. Also, can someone please explain to me what Camp Gonnagitcha is? I looked on the website, and I don't exactly get the description.

Swoosh Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 Camp Gonnagitcha is an outdoor maze that is themed to a Summer Camp that has been overrun by zombies and other ghouls. It is located in the old queue line area for the Plunge. The actual haunt is just beyond the train tressle past Zulu in the Africa section of the park. It is pretty cool and when it is really humid the fog back there makes visibility almost zero which is awesome. Jason, I don't know why it did that. Kind of funny though.

Vffreak07 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Okay, I know this has nothing to do with the WOF haunt, but what other park haunts are in the top 5 for the US? I know HHN and Knotts Scary Farms are the main two, but other than those, what are the other ones, cuz I could see WOF as a top 5 US park haunt if it keeps getting this better.

Swoosh Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 We like to think of HAUNT at WOF as the "hidden secret" for PHALL PHUN in Missouri -- don't let the secret get out. Actually it is quite obvious that event is popular. The parking lots were all the way back to Lots K & L last year on select Saturdays. I know that the line for Asylum was up to 3 hours last year (can only imagine how long BloodShed's will be once the word gets out). I don't know about top 5, but I would say at least the top 10... but then I'm not sure how many halloween events there are in the USA. I know we have the second most HAUNTS of any of the Cedar Fair parks, second only to KBF (d'oh). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewsPlusNotes Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 VFFreak07: Dorney's Halloweekends are extremely popular as well. They do have a website each year for them on Dorney's page, it's just not up yet. There's no way Dorney will stop their Halloweekends anytime soon.

Vffreak07 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I didn't know that Mike. I was just assuming that because I've never heard anything from that side of the US happening with the haunts and all. Not to make anyone mad/sad, but even though blood shed will be new this year, I think that it won't be as popular as asylum island. I mean, I know Bloodshed already has some hype on it, but AI being the number 1 haunt in the whole CF chain is big, and I think people will still be drawn to that this year due to its popularity. But I'd really love to be proven wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoosh Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 I don't know about it being the #1 haunt period in the chain, but Kinzel said it was the best ASYLUM in the chain last year. BloodShed is going to be sick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vffreak07 Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Mmhmm. I wouldn't mind it at all if CF started using Bloodshack as a house name throughout the Halloween events. (But I'm sure the WOF fanboys would ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoosh Posted August 12, 2007 Author Share Posted August 12, 2007 Oh you can use BloodShack all you want -- ours is BloodShed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vffreak07 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Oops. Yeah I wouldn't mind CF using Bloodshed as a haunt name. I think it sounds very gory. Hey Swoosh, you should get a POV since you work there. (Or Jive can too!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jive Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Here's our video from Asylum Island last year. http://www.coastercommunity.com/index.php?option=com_gallery2&Itemid=87&g2_itemId=6793 This year we'll be shooting in High Def (even though we're still not sure how we're going to host it). Here are some of the photos that we gathered along the way as well. http://www.coastercommunity.com/index.php?option=com_gallery2&Itemid=87&g2_itemId=6576&g2_page=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vffreak07 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Oh my god those pictures are amazing. I don't see how it's layed out though. . . I heard it goes into the waterpark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jive Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 We mixed up the video on purpose. It is indeed in OoF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoosh Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 ^Jive, the way Brandon was talking made it sound like the scenes from Asylum might not be specifically in the same order that they were last year. That might make things interesting as you/I/etc will be expecting "certain scene" next and then get something else... you know what I mean. Certain scenes have to be in certain spots because of logistics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jive Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 That'll be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoosh Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 I hardly doubt it will be a big thing as that happens all the time at KBF. Probably just depends on who is setting up the haunt at that time. lol The thing I am most excited about is that WOF's event is becoming more like KBF's now with EVERY MIDWAY being a scare zone with fog and not just the extreme haunt areas. That is awesome and it makes me wonder just how much longer it will be before this becomes a hard ticketed event like HAUNT at KBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjohnson51 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Worlds of Fun is really steeping up in this Haloween event! I'm highly considering applying to be a screamster this year. I think it would be a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jive Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 It really is a blast. If you can make people fall down then you've done your job. The after party at Waffle House is just an added bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
