susie zueck Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Possibly but I think Delirium was a better maze than Endgames last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1pizza14 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Does anyone have a good strategy for hitting up Knott's? I was thinking on riding Xcelleracer first than going to Boomerang after. Is there a better way to tackle the park? Also, I will be visiting on thursday of next week, how will crowds be? Is it worth it to purchase a Fast Lane or can I go without it. Thanks!

Jew Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Knot's said that they would release all of their info for Haunt's 40th this year if they reached 10,040 likes. They are now well over that so it's only a matter of time now before they release the info. They've started to announce returning mazes and their new features for 2012: Knott's Scary Farm Halloween Haunt 2012 Returning Maze: VIRUS Z Welcome to Pleasanton - Population: Zero. Virus Z has turned the entire town into hunger-crazed zombies and you’re the last meal in town. Hordes of bloodthirsty corpses roam the small town in search of fresh meat. Help has arrived, but not to rescue – they’re here to wall the entire town off from the world. UPDATED FOR 2012: Now with 1,000 more gallons of blood! Locked in a cement grave for decades under the bowels of the lake, an abandoned, government fallout shelter is crawling with human/animal genetic hybrids, toxic mutants, and nuclear freaks, hungry for carnage. Grab your Geiger Counters and put on your radiation suits, the residents are ravenous. UPDATED 2012: Now with more toxic sludge than ever before! Watch your step or you may find yourself mutating into one of the family!

Knott's Scary Farm Halloween Haunt 2012 Returning Maze: DELIRIUM In the deep recesses of the mind, on the clouded brink of insanity, lies the hellish wasteland of Delirium; a place so gruesome that your imagination fails to comprehend the horrors.

Can you stare into the abyss of your own terror? Knott's Scary Farm Halloween Haunt 2012: Returning Maze: ENDGAMES The world as we know it has ended.

Sir Clinksalot Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 From the Knott's Season Pass Holder Facebook Page: Season Pass Holders exclusive! Starting June 16th at 9:30 am you can enjoy daily Early Ride Time (ERT) on all of Camp Snoopy plus one coaster. The coaster will alternate daily between Silver Bullet, Montezooma's Revenge and Ghost Rider. This is pretty awesome. Apparently this also applies to those with a hotel package.

Jew Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Another returning maze announced! Knott's Scary Farm Halloween Haunt 2012 Returning Maze: DIA DE LOS MUERTOS in 3D Sacrificial blood rains down from the skies. The screams of La Llorona, the Weeping Woman, echo all around as the creatures of the night crawl from their decrepit crypts. Venture into the forbidden jungle of El Chupacabra and the blood soaked lair of primordial demons. “Dia de los Muertos”, the Day of the Dead, has arrived.

rollercoasterbuff Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I definitely agree with Malice. That was such a cool maze. Cedar Point and King's Island had Club Blood. Does KBF not do Club Blood? That was an AWESOME maze! Cyrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolliger&Mabillard Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 No. Knott's introduced club blood about three years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 ^^We had Club Blood for a few years, but it was replaced by Delirium last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lk2500 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I just took a look at the Knotts web page and it says Xcelerator is closed May 21 - June 22 and Ghostrider is closed June 18 - July 4. I'm in town 6/23 - 6/28 and planned on hitting up KBF one day. Does anybody know why those rides are closed and if Xcelerator is still due to re-open 6/22? I suppose I don't care too much about Ghostrider being closed since it does beat you up pretty good, but I was still wanting to ride it once for the heck of it, oh well.

1pizza14 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I am visiting the park for the first time on Tuesday. Could anyone let me know how crowds will be? Will it be less busy later in the day that school kids are gone or has Orange Country Schools already started summer break? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 ^ Most schools are out by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBru Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I just took a look at the Knotts web page and it says Xcelerator is closed May 21 - June 22 and Ghostrider is closed June 18 - July 4. So they are scheduling two of the three major coasters to be down at the same time (for five days)? What the heck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Someotherguyuser Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Here's the official list so far for Knott's Haunt: Returning: -Slaughterhouse -Endgames (New location) -Delirium (With new "Pillar of Souls" room) -Virus Z -Fallout Shelter -Uncle Bobo's -Dia de los Muertos -Terror of London New mazes: -Dominion of the Dead (Replacing Lockdown) -TBA (Replacing Doll Factory; rumored to be an interactive maze) I'm going to guess that CornStalkers will be the next one on the chopping block. Knott's is supposed to be having twelve mazes this year, so maybe there will be an extra one other than that of what might or might not replace CornStalkers. We'll have to see.

susie zueck Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Im happy with just about every maze on this list except Dia De Los Muertos which was a horrible maze in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeppelinfreak Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Knott's announced a new maze today!!!! Here is the description from Facebook From the demented imagination of Haunt Maze Designer Daniel Miller comes an all new journey into terror...this Halloween Haunt in the Wilderness Dance Hall.... Pinocchio Unstrung Sounds exciting, there is a teaser video for the maze on Facebook too. This actually looks like a great maze, can't wait for more details.

SoCalCoasters Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 So they go from demented dolls to unstrung puppets? Sounds interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susie zueck Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Is Knotts allowed to use pinocchio since it is a Disney trademark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 ^I think it depends on the version of Pinocchio. The original is from an Italian children's book by Carlo Colloidi, which was published in 1883. There have been quite a few adaptations over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 ^ Correct. Although I anticipate more than a few Disney bashes in it. It wouldn't be Haunt without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susie zueck Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Glad to hear that they can! Will Corn Stalkers be returning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
