I thought we were pretty much done with this after two years of almost black wall free houses. Sigh.

Gotta say, Terror Tram looks really cool this year. That intro was awesome.

Ghostbusters looked… eh.

Ugh, trying to resist watching videos is hard. Any word on how Insidious is? I want to try and save that, cause I see potential in it being the scariest. I hear Orlando’s was amazing in scares.

From what little I’m seeing/hearing, it sounds like this year is okay. Didn’t expect it to be as strong as last year, but it really sounds like all that money went into Quiet Place.

Late Night with Chucky

The pre-show lobby "host" is awful & made me really miss Kimberly Duncan from T2:3D! The actual show host is just overall bad & full of repetitive commentary that isn't funny or well executed.

The "comedic hosts" kinda kill the vibe. Chucky is entertaining as expected. Repeatability for this seems "low".

I still say Chucky needs to make appearances above guest relations like 2019.

A lot of the mazes this year just weren’t scary. Bloodline was down right offensive haha

I feel like almost all of my predictions came true to my expectations. TCM being good is the only one I didn't expect, but with that said, I've done plenty of slaughterhouse mazes so verdict is still out on that until I go through it.

My gripe about the monkey situation in Dead Exposure was accurate. It just doesn't fit the scenario. Waste of nearly 3 scenes.

I agree with @Clive about it being more like Havoc: Zombiegeddon (minus the collars). Despite those nitpicks, it's a solid "original" with great unexpected effects.

Every maze was pretty much just average this year.
I would say the below average would be insidious, ghostbusters, and bloodlines. Everything else at least has something going for it

Just finished watching POVs of the houses and Terror Tram. Looked like quite a bit missing in many(GB had one really obvious hole), interested to see how much is added/changed throughout the event.
I'll agree that Dead Exposure could have been titled Havoc and no one would have blinked, but it was also one of my favorites lol. Tons of energy

Having now seen all the POVs, it really seems like a ton of money was spent this year... it's just that I don't really care about the properties. Standouts seem to be Monstruos, DE, and TCM.

Annoyed that Monsters is the blackout house two years in a row.

Small anecdote, but I have a…dumb thought with Monsters.

Does it seem by chance, that it was made for the purpose of not a soundstage? Like as if the house wasn’t going to do things at the scale of what SS12 can actually do.
