Knott's Haunt Announces 2008 Mazes

[FitchCoaster]

They are people that have special kneepads and gloves, and they basically throw themselves on the ground and "slide" towards the people they are scaring.

 

Not the best explanation, I'm sure someone could explain it better, haha.

 

Here's a good video of sliders:

Socalman can we expect a TR, and also try not to post too many teasers. I love knotts trs but I still want some surprise.

You can defenitly expect a TR! Don't expect too many pictures from mazes yet though, because the first time I walk through mazes I try to observe everything and taking pictures of stuff would defenitly throw off my focus. But expect pictures up on Sunday or Monday.

They have been handing out the employee shirts for a few days now I just got mine today and am positing pics

Back of the 08 Knott's employee Haunt shirt!

That looks just like the T-shirt from the 30th anniversary.

 

And I'm sure they will sell the same shirt in a different color for guests like they did last year.

The shirt looks Black but its really Brown just for anyone wondering...

Hey, anyone know the theme to this years hanging. Im guessing it might be political but im not sure.

^From the Knott's website:

Join Santa Ana Smith in his journey deep within the Forbidden Temple as he encounters pop icons of 2008. Watch out! It’s going to be bloody!

Be sure to take lots of pictures of Asylum and 13 Axe Murder Manor because they won't be there next year.

 

Goodbye Asylum.

[socalMAN123]

^ I defenitly will. Asylum will be missed.

Last night I watched the Behind the Screams videos Knotts has up on the haunt page. I thought it was interesting how the head creative guy was like...Asylum and 13 are in really bad shape from construction and destruction over the past 6 years. Yes, he put it out there plain and simple.

 

I guess its cool that he's honest with his audience, but I was suprised he didn't try to "spin" their demise as something like "we want to go in a new creative direction next year"

Hey guys here is a review from Hollywood Gothique. They are like the TPR of haunts and they are cool to look up during Halloween as they hit up all the local Haunts. There is no photo but a maze analysis and review for all the new mazes.
