The spectators escaped unharmed, but the performers were left behind to choke on the heavy smoke and burn in the infernal heat. The audience claimed they thought it was part of the show, but the angry spirits of the clowns and circus freaks do not believe such a claim, and know that the spectators simply did not believe the freaks were worth the effort to save. Every night, the circus freaks appear to perform their act in an attempt to lure in fresh blood until they have gathered enough to return to this world for good. THE ASYLUM Tent behind Wonder Theater In 1923 Miles Gravestone was admitted to the asylum after surviving the curse of Slaughter Mill. No one believed his story, and most believed that it was he who gruesomely murdered his camping friends. The doctors forced electroshock therapy while the nurses cruelly sedated him with rusty needles. Pushed to his psychological brink, his sorrow and fear exploded in a rage of fury and he gathered all the other inmates to form a revolt. The inmates have taken over the asylum entirely, and those doctors and nurses who survived such actions are just as deranged as their former patients. MASSACRE MANOR Kingswood The Van Tassel boy had been warned about wandering too far into the forest, and disturbing thing better left forgotten, but he didn’t listen. He came to the grave of the headless horseman, a soldier who had died not during battle, but by execution for unjust war crimes. When the boy returned home that night, he brought with him the curse of sleepy hollow. The enraged horseman brutally murdered the Van Tassel family and the farm workers in his ever agonizing search for his head. Over 200 years later, this colonial farmhouse is still haunted by the undead occupants. BLOODSHED Kingswood When the headless horseman realized his head was not in the possession of the humans, he ravaged the Van Tassels’ barn, tearing through the helpless workers and animals that got in his way. The dilapidated barn is now haunted by rabid animals out for revenge against all things human, and the corpses of deceased farm hands roam about in loathsome madness.

Final Summons Location to be determined (Post if you know) Deep in the heart of the Louisiana Bayou, an old manor stands in great disrepair—a testament to its previous days of grandeur. The Beauvais Manor served as the family home of the Beauvais family for over 100 years. The home was a place for the family to gather each year and celebrate their great heritage. As generations passed, the family outgrew the home, and many lost all connection with the family heritage that had at one time been so dear to their hearts. The only remaining member was an old maid named Aimee Beauvais. Having never married, her only connection to the family she so desperately longed for was the home. That house meant everything to her. Being alone all the time draws its suspicions. Aimee was known by the townspeople as the old “witch.” Long being accused of toying with Voodoo, many people were too terrified to even pass the house. As time passed, Aimee grew older, the house went into disrepair, and people were content to ignore the old woman. All that changed one summer 25 years ago. The town faced the worst plague it had ever experienced. Everyone fell deathly ill…except Aimee. Specialists were called from around the world, but no one could identify the mystery illness that was killing the townspeople mercilessly. It wasn’t long before fingers began pointing at the lonely old “witch” who lived in the Beauvais house. The townspeople, desperate for answers, stormed the home searching endlessly for Aimee Beauvais. Finally the mob reached the attic. When they opened the door, she was sitting in an old rocker. The room was a terrific sight, filled with poppets full of pins and wreaking of putrid flesh. They stormed Aimee, who sat calmly in her chair. There was no struggle….no sign of resistance. It was as if she was expecting them. As the crowd dragged her from the house, others rushed to prepare a noose in the yard. They slid the rope over her neck on the large oak tree in the yard. The crowd became silent. Aimee let out a laugh that chilled the air. Then, as if she had rehearsed it a thousand times, Aimee spoke these words, I will knock down the Gates of the Netherworld. I will smash the doors and leave them flat. I will let the dead go up to eat the living! The dead will outnumber the living! You will all suffer! This was all the proof the angry mob needed. They quickly released her and let her lifeless body swing from the tree, leaving her there to rot. Soon after, the town seemed to return to normal. And so it has remained for the past 25 years. But on the anniversary, strange things began to happen. Things in the house began to stir. The first thing people noticed was that family graveyard was empty. All of the graves dug up, as if something had escaped. Then people began going missing. Now there are tales of walking dead! Zombies who have returned at the hand of Voodon master Aimee Beauvais to seek her revenge. All who enter this cursed place, will be doomed! Dead Inn Location to be determined (Post if you know) These stories always start out with a dream. This one is no different. John Cole and his family had always wanted to open up a cozy little inn in the country. They scrimped and saved for years to bring their dream to reality. In the summer of 1963 the Park View Inn opened for business. After several months with few guests, John became obsessed with making their plan work. His obsession began to tear his family apart. Following the one year anniversary of the opening the conditions had not improved. John's wife left with their kids and decided it would be best if they went their separate ways. Losing his wife pushed John even further over the edge and he decided that he would make the Inn a success. John believed that if the inn were a success he could win back his one true love, but fate had other plans in store. Within months of his wife leaving, John began to change and reality began to fade away. He saw each guest that came to his Inn with suspicion, believing that they caused his wife to leave him. Several guests that had visited the inn simply disappeared, never to be seen again. The sheriff’s office began to investigate the disappearances but was not able to learn the truth. On October 13th 1964 John reached his breaking point. In a violent rampage he murdered 18 innocent guests who had made the mistake of staying at the little inn. Following the massacre, John walked into the front office and slit his own throat. For years, several owners tried to revive the cozy little inn, unfortunately all of their attempts failed. The story of the massacre is too well known, all of the locals call the inn by a more sinister moniker, Dead Inn. Only a few years ago the inn was condemned and boarded up. The old building that was built on dreams is off limits. Even to this day locals claim that the ghost of John Cole and his victims still roam the rooms. Within the doors of the Park View Inn history is coming alive room by room. Who will be the next victim at the Dead Inn? The Slaughterhouse Location to be determined (Post if you know) For sixty two years, generations of men made their way to the outskirts of town and worked in the dimly lit corridors and bloody death rooms of the Shady Lake’s Pork Processing Plant. For sixty two years, father’s ritually passed down to their sons the secrets of how to best “stick a pig.” For sixty two years they fought against their own primal nature and tried not to “enjoy” their work of committing unspeakable acts of violence and murder upon millions of innocent and defenseless pigs. They succeeded for sixty two years… Finally, all of the killing and torture has taken its toll on the sanity of the butchers at Shady Lakes. The pigs have now become too boring. Too predictable. Not even smart enough to hide. The crazed butchers have decided that it is time to make their work “fun” again. You are about to enter a place that you will wish did not exist; A place where your last breath is controlled by the twisted and insane. How many ways are there to die? Our butchers have decided to find the answer to that question. Over the year’s, they have become very creative. Have YOU been chosen to be their next little piggy? The Dream Factory Location to be determined (Post if you know) Welcome to the famed Cedar Productions. The Dream Factory has been the home of horror for more than 8 decades starring hoards of nefarious creatures from mad scientists to werewolves. As you enter the studio you will see the scenery from some of our most famous movies. These sets only offer a glimpse of what you will see once you begin your tour. You are entering a world of terror personified. Our art teams have been working tirelessly to recreate some of your favorite scenes from Cedar Productions films. You will be joined by mad scientists and their creations as you wander through the laboratories of geniuses. Here the tortured minds of evil scientists have created some of the most horrific and inhumane experiments known to man. Reanimation of dead corpses, crossbreeding of savage animals, transplanting brains from one creature to another...there is no telling what you will encounter as you wander through these tortured halls. As you cross through the gateway of the ancient world be on the lookout for mummies who never made their journey to the afterlife. These creatures were drained of their blood, wrapped in cloth, and locked in a stone tomb. Thousands of restless years have made them hungrier than they ever thought possible...and you may appear to be a tasty snack. Deep from within ancient Eastern Europe, you will be greeted by Vampires and their familiars as you wander through their sacred great halls. These immortal creatures are the only remaining vestiges of their culture, and it has been a long time since they last encountered fresh meat. Your scent will weigh heavily on their dry palettes, so traverse these dangerous halls carefully. The full moon is always hanging over The Dream Factory but never fear, our werewolves have rarely converted anyone... usually their victims don't live. These creatures of the night stalk their territory looking for prey. With a savage heart that lusts for blood, there is no escaping their relentless jaws. Welcome to a place where a new reality is created every day. Where fantasy meets your worst nightmares. Welcome to The Dream Factory, the home of horror. Alien Annihilation Location to be determined (Post if you know) For years, these woods have remained uninhabited by any humans…or so we thought. Just a few months ago, a team of scientists set out on a mission to map these woods—one of the only remaining uncharted pieces of land. What they found astonished them. Buried deep in these ancient woods were ruins too great and grand to be imagined…remnants of structures that would amaze even the ancient Egyptians. But that’s not the most amazing part. After extensive study on the ruins, it was determined that these structures predated even the earliest records of human existence. Could this mean that humans may be even older than we previously thought? Originally, the only evidence found at the site was fractures of tablet, written in a language unfamiliar to humans. This meant the only avenue for explanation of the phenomenon was the human imagination. Scientists simply deduced that the culture was one of human origin previously unknown to us. Of course, more abstract thinkers had slightly exotic theories. Recently, the situation has become even stranger. The teams of scientists previously working on the site refuse to return. They claim to have seen bright lights in the sky, circling as if planning an attack. As they fled, they claim to have discovered the most compelling evidence to date—a tablet written in English but dating to the same time of the other tablets that details plans for a return. A return from another planet to claim what once belonged to another race. No humans will be spared. This world will bow before them. All we can do is sit and wait. Wait for the time when they decide the era of humans has expired. Wait for ANNIHILATION. Scare Zones The Cemetery (New for 2008) Location to be determined (Post if you know) The lifeless inhabitants of this grave yard are the victims of a massacre—an evil raid on their small colonial village. A few centuries later, and the city is encroaching on these sacred grounds. Crowds now trample the cemetery, and the dead are awake… Feeding Frenzy (New for 2008) Location to be determined (Post if you know) For the past four weeks the hottest club in town has been the “Feeding Frenzy,” located in the heart of the old docks in the warehouse district. When you enter club the pulsating beat encompasses your soul and your heart begins to beat in time with the music. The air is filled with strange scents that mingle with the sweaty bodies packed on the dance floor around you. While you are dancing the hairs on the back of your neck stand up when you realize what you smell is the coppery odor of fresh blood. You look closer…it dawns on you…not everyone here is human… The Harvest Location to be determined (Post if you know) Deep in the backwoods of the Carolinas lies a small village shadowed in secrets. Several have reported that backwood-like folk have been spotted tending to this murderous land. Many have dared to investigate the supposed, chilling stories, but those who have entered into The Harvest never return. _______________________________________________________________ Cedar Point's Halloweekends Haunted Houses Club Blood (New for 2008) Main Entrance Head out to Club Blood and “take a bite” out of your nightlife!

larrygator Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Vffreak07 - This is certainly worthy of its own thread. Therefore, I split the 2008 info into a second thread keeping it seperate from the 2007 info. thanks for posting this info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmor Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Seems Carowinds (SCarowinds) has the only "different" name and all the rest use the same name... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 UrgentScare. I like it! I also heard that Canada's Wonderland is adding 3 new haunts entitled Kingdom of Carnage, Mother Noose, and Red Beard's Revenge. I like the new names by Cedar Fair! Red Beards Revenge and Mother Noose's Scary tales are not new names. They are recycled from Knott's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vffreak07 Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 For all you WOF Haunt fans, the two new haunts are entitled "Outlaw's Revenge" and "Mastar McCarthey's Doll Factory". They were leaked a while ago, but they're more talked about now so I don't think it's an issue posting them. Official details Should be announced tomorrow, but who knows, they might not be.

Vffreak07 Posted August 18, 2008 Author Share Posted August 18, 2008 Updated Dorney Locations. Anybody know any Canada's Wonderland haunt locations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxmagicboxersxx Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Doll Factory at WoF is also in a new building under Boomerang's lifts. I wonder if the location will have any negative effects on the haunt. Surely the coaster going over it will take away some of the magic. Will they close down the Boomerang, maybe?

Vffreak07 Posted August 18, 2008 Author Share Posted August 18, 2008 I doubt it. They'll probably just blast nursery music through-out it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxmagicboxersxx Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Hopefully the noise from the coaster won't be too noticable. DF is supposed to be the longest maze yet. =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
