Whatever Ben, to keep this from getting ugly I am just going to skim and continue on.

Ok now that we have that out of the way, I do not think we'll have that same issue this year considering that HAUNT#1's structure is already finished for the most part and HAUNT#2's structure has been given the green light by KIVA.

Blood Shed didn't start having flags pop up until June last year and it wasn't until the end of August before the building even had its siding on it. Granted we do not know if there are any flags for HAUNT#2 present in the park, but we do know that it will at least be another permanent haunt building and not a scare zone. That alone gives it a heads up over CarnEVIL

Just in case anyone missed it as it got quickly buried in nonsense...

^The reason Clowns saw such a fall off was the fact that the park had already promised 2 new Haunts for the season in their brochure and honestly ran out of time/funds to really do anything spectacular -- so we got the CarnEVIL scare area.

I'm with Ben on this one. You're making it sound like the park came up short on CarnEVIL and what they put our there was the same thing that we were told months before. They knew that it would be somewhat tame so that people could walk around, play games, see a show. I'm guessing that some changes will be made though.

I like that they have so many haunts that are fairly/very scary... it does depend on what night you go also, since some screamsters are more experienced and are able to get in character (that helps with the creepy factor, more so than hearing one say "Dude, I just hurt my leg").

Swoosh · « **Reply #64 on:** Jul 22, 2008, 08:32 »

*skim*

WOW Look at that! A new permit for ANOTHER permanent HAUNT!!!

Makes perfect sense to me, with the exception of the new construction permit

Speculation >>>
*Doll House in Zinger (very possible, but another theme may be used for that one, after the new permit dropped)
*Camp on Nile Island (perfect environ)
*CornStalkers over by Timberwolf (easy theme to pass off in that area)

I was looking at MIG, and I seen this photo.

Dustijn,
Is that woman being arrested

by the infamous IWO, near the new haunt building??

Swoosh · « **Reply #67 on:** Jul 23, 2008, 01:29 »

^I think that is what is going on there. To be quite honest I had not even paid attention to what was going on in the foreground before now, but now that you mention it, it is quite humerous.

Stand up for what you *believe*, if you actually believe it.

The original question was asking whether or not camp was going to suffer the same drop off in scare factor as the Clown haunts did, and I think my explanation is much more to the point and less of a "well I heard" answer. But whatever.

Lets just celebrate the fact that a great park's best season is getting better.

o.o

Waitwait about the dollhouse. Is it possible that they're not doing it? D: That makes me sad, as I want to do it.

>.> Maybe I'll just return to Dominion. =]

I hope they release more information about the new haunts soon. I'm getting anxious.

Welcome aboard xxmagicboxersxx

Is Dominion the only one that you've worked? I've tried Asylum and Blood Shed over the last two years and enjoy moving around.

=D Thanks for the welcome.

Yeah, it is. Last year I hit sixteen so, obviously, it was my first year. This will be my second year, if they hire me again. I worked at WoF at the beginning of the summer, but had to leave unexpectedly to Colorado because of a family emergency. I called and they said I could rep-apply, but... you never know. Hopefully if I just explain my case, they'll sympathize and give me a job. xD

I can't wait to work again this year. If I don't like any of the new haunts, I'm going to ask for Dominion again. I refuse to work Asylum because it makes me angry (complicated), and I won't do CarnEVIL because of my clown phobia. =] I know how to work Dominion, even when the weather hates us and blows away our fog. Actually, I think my best scares were on days where we had no fog. Dominion was definitely difficult to do.

D: But I hope they do a doll house. That would be amazing and perfect for me. xD

Haunt listing has been updated http://www.worldsoffun.com/public/inside_park/halloweekends/extreme_haunts/ No names for the new haunts yet though.

xxmagicboxersxx · « **Reply #73 on:** Jul 28, 2008, 01:26 »

Ughhhh.

D:

I want to find out nooooooooooowwwwww!

Jason · « **Reply #74 on:** Jul 28, 2008, 01:27 »

I love the music for the Haunt pages.

So do I.

For about five months after working in Dominion, I found myself humming some of the music they play because I got so used to hearing it.

xD The music on the site is so creepy. I love it.

Though it scared my little brother, because he couldn't figure out where it was coming from. >.>

He's 7, though.

Awesome! That would be great for chasing around 7 year olds.

xxmagicboxersxx · « **Reply #78 on:** Jul 28, 2008, 01:42 »

XD

I love chasing around children.

No, scratch that.

I always hated it when people would bring in small kids to the houses. Especially in Dominion, when the fog was thick, I couldn't see if I was scaring a kid or an adult. =/ I always felt bad making 2-year-olds cry.

It's ironic that my job after the season closed was a daycare.

HaHa Thats Funny.

xxmagicboxersxx · « **Reply #80 on:** Jul 28, 2008, 08:44 »

A new blog was posted on the WoF site. I got all excited, hoping it was about the new haunts.

But no.

-.-

sdcman · « **Reply #81 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 03:07 »

So where is the 2nd building going? Shouldn't they have started on it by now?

tonyblackjack · « **Reply #82 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 03:10 »

Very good point.

Jason · « **Reply #83 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 03:20 »

What would you guys say if I told you that it was already built?

zztop · « **Reply #84 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 04:26 »

what how where when right under our noses that about sums it up dosn't it

zztop · « **Reply #85 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 04:33 »

bumper cars?

Swoosh · « **Reply #86 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 04:41 »

Well there are a few "empty buildings" in the park. Pick one.

tonyblackjack · « **Reply #87 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 05:06 »

To do interior construction do they have to get a permit?

Bradley Robertson · « **Reply #88 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 06:38 »

Yes. And I think that's what the second project may be for.
