Don't know about this year, but last year i know some were made in house

Edited September 5, 201412 yr by Brad2912

They used Sudden Impact in 2010 I think for the Saw Maze and Freddy but since then they have all been done in house if i'm not mistaken.

Sudden impact parted ways from mw after 2011 fright night

So 2010 and 2011 were sudden impact but cost were extremely high

Or I should say MW parted ways with sudden impact

So any ideas on the last maze I would say American horror story maze

Would love AHS, but I can't exactly see it happening. My gut feeling is for Walking Dead to reappear, as much as I hate it.

It says 4 all New mazes AHS is my bet I think the train for walking dead has left

They said last year there were 4 all new mazes. Yes they had walking dead in 2012, but the maze was different last year. So there is a chance that there could be one again this year, but I personally doubt it.

Different Maze, but they didn't say all new IP's

I wouldn't mind see a maze based on Chucky or The Teaxs Chainsaw maze come to MW Fright Night.

Personally I prefer Walking Dead to return instead of Hillbilly Slasher. They did a lot of changes to last years TWD to the year before. What did they do with HS? Recycle 75% of the maze. Did I like HS2? Yes I did but I preferred TWD than HS

I hope that this year they don't do two things with this years FN

1. Lack Of Actors: Last year they hardly had any actors and I hope that this year that there isn't only two actors in only in one maze! TWD only had two actors and HS had four actors. PLEASE BE MORE THAN TWO ACTORS IN A MAZE!

2. Don't make the area to foggy!

Seriously there was so much smoke around the fountain I misplaced my foot making me to sprain my foot which ended me in the First Aid room for 50% of my night.

So far I'm happy what MW has done so far!

Can we stop saying 'I hope they bring back Walking Dead' or 'not hillbilly slasher'.

MW have said it is 4 new mazes. No they didn't say IP's, but they don't have to. New means new!

As for Ninja only seeing 2 or 4 actors in an entire maze, are you sure you didn't hit your head when you did your ankle in the heavy fog (which is great-doesn't need toning down at all) because there was substantially more than that in both mazes

^I agree. I didn't get a chance to do the walking dead maze last year, but I did do the HB maze and there was at least 12 actors.I remember there were 3 actors in the one area.

Whilst it's a great effect, i'll be really happy if they get rid of the guy with the chainsaw. It does a really great job terrifying people, but:

1. you can hear it before you even enter the maze, so you're anticipating it the whole time
2. the constant exhaust fumes, coupled with minimal ventilation (in order to keep the whole room smoky) means it's quite nauseating, even for a minute or two. (I pity the actors working that set for the much longer time they would spend there).

I look forward to seeing what MW can do this year. The loss of Sudden Impact hasn't been bad - they got them started, but now they know what they're doing they can do stuff much cheaper, which means overall better mazes and better thrills.

Whatever the mazes, I look forward to them. I don't particularly care what IP they use, i'm unfamiliar with most of them, and for me it's less about 'how true they are to the movie game book whatever, and more just about how well the area is themed, and how well the actors do their job.

Whilst it's nice to have the IP for the backstory and the imagery - I think MW is capable with their in-house people to pull off something without it needing the IP licensing. I don't think many would miss it - so long as it gives the scares and the thrills that you go to this kind of event for.

(Check out the random generic scare actors in the scare zones who get just as many screams as the mazes do)

Agree with what you've said Alex. Looking forward to the clown maze this year to see what they can imagine up without having to stay true to a backstory or plot

Just think maybe this year will be only 3 mazes on the photo of cannibal clowns the caption says you voted for it the final maze for fright nights 2014

There will be four mazes, what they mean by voted for it to be the final maze is that it is the fourth maze and they had the other 3 already.

Imagine experiencing the same thing as what happened in the season 1 finale. That would make my year!

All the seasons in one would be amazing!

All the seasons in one would be amazing!

They wouldn't. It would just be a mess of different settings, stories and characters.

Tickets are now available for non-pass holders.

How many press releases, websites, Facebook posts and radio ads do MW have to put out before people listen to them.

FOUR mazes

All NEW mazes

The amount of posts questioning this or completely disregarding it is crazy!

^Sorry I contributed to that. I just took the news as new designs, not all new IP's and original content.

Is it just me, or is the event cheaper? Also, its good to see the season pass return.

^Yes and No. It seems the first 3 nights are $30, then the next 2 nights are $40, then the next 4 are $50. It seems strange that they have done this though.

Makes sense, by charging more for the historically peak nights, you either make more revenue from the same capacity, or push others to less popular nights and share the load

Quick Question: Generally, how bad is the second weekend? I know that in the first few days they are trying to get into the swing of things, but I was wondering if most opening night issues would be resolved or would it be a better experience to go later?
