ATTRACTIONS
Welcome to our Halloween Haunt coverage of the Haunted Attractions
SHADOWMORE CEMETERY
This was new this year and is located in the East Asia section
I am not really sure what this is supposed to be. There weren't any screamsters so it isn't a scare zone
The park refers to it as an experience
So I guess it is just a fancy decorated area
GHOST TRAIN
This was another experience they added this year. All consists of is the train parked along Forum Road and some fog and lighting. I didn't get it either
ABYSS
This was a new scare zone in Africa. Supposedly themed to jungle scientists gone wrong.
Not really scary and honestly I am not sure about the theme
MALICE IN WONDERLAND
This is the current scare zone in Europa and like past years we were left wondering what the point is here.
The characters just sort of exist. No one attempting to scare
OUTLAWS REVENGE
It has never been a strong scare zone, but at least the screamsters were trying. This is mainly a sliders area and I did actually witness some actual guest interactions.
Sidenote - maybe the park should really reconsider how to operate scare zones before next season
BLOOD ON THE BAYOU
This has always been one of the stronger houses at the park. Good visuals and decent jump scares
RIPPER ALLEY
This maze really needs to retire and a new concept put in its place. Very disappointing
LORE OF THE VAMPIRE
This maze is 20 years old - and it shows.
The screamsters were either tired or bored and it fell very flat
BLOOD SHED
The KING of Halloween Haunt. The screamsters here are top notch and you'll receive plenty of jump scares
CORNSTALKERS
Coming in clutch again this year is Cornstalkers. The only thing holding this maze back is the fact that guests are bound and determined to make it a conga line which does not allow the screamsters to reset properly to do jump scares.
PUMKIN EATER
This was the surprise hit last year and it was pretty good again this season
ZOMBIE HIGH
This gets our vote for most improved maze from last season. There were some decent jump scares for a change
