It is working great and had a crowd all night.

Houdini opened all day Saturday and the line never let up once . Even as we were leaving at around 8:45 there were still people on line . We rode it and I have to say all the effects were working and it was much better then the one in SFNE when we rode that this summer . Great Job SF on opening it again !

If it's just for Fright fest, It's still worth keeping

It's been there for 2-3 years. You noticed because it was actually working this time lol.

Did they change the preshow or actual ride audio? Or did SFNE's version really throw off my perception of how this ride use to be.

They did not change the preshow or actual ride audio but when we went to SFNE there were no effects inside ( the table with the head wasnt there, the lightning in the room Etc.. The effects outside werent all working either at SFNE ) To see all the effects working here just reminded me of how good this ride was when it first opened. It was nice to see it up and running .  |

I've noticed it every time I walked by. I've always wondered what they would do with it. Even if it's open just for fright fest, It's worth keeping |

I kind of doubt that. For how much they cost now. You might as well get another Wild mouse coaster.

the only complaint I had about the ride was for some reason when they told the guests to exit from the moving part of the ride, you heard it in the preshow as well.

I haven't been on it yet. But they could tone the speakers down for the exit voice. It's not like it'll explode or something (ring racer reference)

I am pretty sure that would be a violation of safety as if you aren't able to hear the ride operator, you are in potential danger.

I meant so you couldn't hear it through the door. I do know it's a safety hazard if you can't hear the ride op
