I just don't want black box,trigger scares this year. I know that's wishful thinking but they need to learn that that's not scary, just startling.

Or that animatronic horde scare from walking dead 2013, and then it was in like 4 houses the next year. I’ve been meaning to talk about this for a long time but never got around to it.This worked wonders with the build of suspense in Exorcist, and I was one of the ones who praised the hell out of it. Unfortunately, it came back into every maze the year after. HHN has the tendency to do that. "You liked this? We'll do it in EEEEVERY MAZE NEXT YEEAAAAR!"
Giant monster at the end of the Thing and suddenly every maze for about 2-3 years had this! I remember one year there were hanging bodies in every maze, even though that's the oldest trick in the book. You like the transition light at the end of This Is The End?! EVERY MAZE MUST HAVE ONE AND TITANS OF TERROR MUST HAVE MULTIPLES! *Oprah* EVERYBODY GETS A TRANSITION LIIIIIIGHT!

What "Uber Fan" storyline? It was the most underused forgotten concept that did NOT set up the maze experience or go past the first scene. It was pointless, almost as much as The Screecher. I enjoyed Titans of Terror for what it was, but like everything else last year, it was half-a**edPerhaps if they decide to do the Uber Fan storyline for that maze, it can be a similar structure, at the beginning of the maze, like Titans of Terror.
twd, clowns 3d, and double attack in dracula.. then awil had the lame subway carOr that animatronic horde scare from walking dead 2013, and then it was in like 4 houses the next year.
there's direction/distraction, but then there's excessive murdy laziness... and a lot of the times the bodies have killed potential scares.HHN as well as many other haunts use the hanging body "gag" to control which direction you walk in a large room. Most of the time it's leading you directly into a scare....
These incidents were way too intentionally bunch together back-to-back and timed to be coincidences and are clear indicators of a success-repeat formula with a clear agenda. This is highly evident considering only one person writes the scripts for these mazes. If it were Knotts with 3-4 creative directors, I'd say possible coincidence, but this is someone pulling the strings to purposely drive up statistics on certain practicalities haha.I think all of your examples are just coincidental but, hilarious
I have a feeling it'll be American Horror Story. Last year's June maze announcement was AHS, and given that it's technically a shared IP with Orlando, I can definitely see marketing wanting to get that announcement out of the way to have the rest of summer for announcing our exclusives.
Everyone "in the know" on the Orlando side says no AHS house there this year. Slight possibility of a scarezone, but probably not.

I’m pretty sure we lost The Conjuring LONG before construction on the Waterworld venue began... especially cause I have a construction video from mid July labeling it as Uber Fan with a barely constructed facade...And given that a lot of other people at the event and on here liked the concept of the Uber Fan, as well as making whatever tweaks necessary to the already constructed facade, originally for The Conjuring.
I wish they would do it sooner rather than later because we all know it’s coming back and the GP are gonna be split being excited and saying “why are you doing this again do IT?!” Little do they know...
Parisian Courtyard has begun work.
I don't think the link is working. Maybe the tweet got deleted.
