« on: September 22, 2009, 03:28:48 PM »
So I just got my first Funatics email today (where the rest have been all season with coupons is beyond me..) and it discusses Fall Family Fun Night (this Friday 5-10!), and the last Saturday Night Lights of the year (this Saturday!), but it also has a link to part of the official Great Adventure site that has the shows and events for this year's Fright Fest!

Some notes from me:

- Great to see Dead Man's Party back. That's the main reason I (and I think a lot of others) go to Fright Fest. I hope they bring back "Bring Me to Life" as the opening song!

- A lot of the stuff from previous years seems to be back. Terror trails, local music shows, lakefront graveyard, circus psycho, the Freak Show, the aWAKEning, Wheel of Fright, Zambora.

- Sounds like they may try giving the fountain area more going on again. It's been kind of empty since they got rid of a lot of the hearses.

- No hayride again this year it seems?

- Some new things for the kids during the day this year, which should be good.

- They changed the tiger show theme. No more marshmallow man! But this could be interesting too.

- I'm wondering how the Goulmaster's Ghosts Shows will differentiate themselves from Dead Man's Party

- I'm nervous about Hypnosteria. Last year when I went Denny More was not there, some other guy was, and man, it was definitely not as funny, at all.

I just looked at Denny More's website (www.dennymore.com for anyone who wants to hire him for a party! I can only imagine..) and it says "Denny More will not be appearing in the show on October 30, 31 & November 1. Filling in will be hypnotist Bill Pettek."

So it look slike I'm penciling that in for October 3rd when I go! And I need to make a list for the rest of this too, so much to do and see!

And I hope there are more ghouls this year. When I went last year it was pretty sparse, although I think I heard that improved towards the end?

Bring me to Life fit the idea of Dead Man's Party perfectly. A lot better than Rama Llama or whatever they have been using the past two years lol

Copyright issues i guess. If so, it seems less severe than the twisted sisters thing.

Escape from the Asylum

Looks like it maybe inside the Chiller building ?
or is it that small building they used with a couple rooms ? on the same side as the theater ?

Well it's good to see they're using it for something. I thought it was just a decoration after they removed the chiller.
