The Flash Pass allows you to bypass the Loggers Run detour line. The Loggers Run detour is the line that is there to stagger the crowds going thru Necropolis.

Nothing done to GD.

They are running Haunted Castle in the Pictorium.


No. Superstition is now that Cell Block A thing. Well, at least part of it is. It's looks mostly outside. Revolution is called something like "Pit and Pendulum" now. What I want to know is what coaster car is in Necropolis. Is that the one that went on the Shockwave track above the store? That's the only one I can think of, but I'm not sure. They also had a old Batman trash can. Woo-hoo! They are so much better than what they have now.

You basically go through the Logger's Run line and it takes you right into Necro, even though I just like going through the gate better

I don't like them either! I guess they don't bother me to much but I don't think that they look that good.


Great pics. I can't wait to go!

I like the branches, but I used to like it better when they had the coffins in the water. The only skeleton that's fully functioning is the Terminator one. The other ones all have something wrong with them. Their mouth doesn't move, legs don't move, or aren't on. The hand that says get me out by the coffin sound is too low, and his hand doesn't move.

They also put new signs by V2 that if you go outside of the line area near the ride you will be arrested, and be ejected from Six Flags for life. This has to do with the kid losing his head on Batman at SFOG, and someone going in the area of the Ninja at SFMM.

Yeah I saw the signs over there and tehn wondered why they did not put them over by BTR, or if they did I did not see them since I had a walk on for BTR.

I've seen it past the sign a few times but rarely. Everything's longer at Fright Fest though.

Ive seen Iron Wolfs line filling both queue houses and back towards the funnel cake shop numerous times during FF. Theres always one or two Saturdays each year during FF that every ride gets full queues stretching way out the entrances. The busiest day ive seen was during FF: Raging Bull and Vipers lines were overlapping on the midway, and that was when Viper had a queue house. On those kinds of days you cant even walk down the midway without large amounts of people bumping into you, the park is pretty much wall to wall packed.

It is inside Looney Tunes National Park, right to the right. The big slides, and the netting, and the tubes.

Also, Iron Wolf didn't have more than a 15-20 minute wait when I rode on Saturday mid day.

This is why you skip Saturdays during Fright Fest. One reason for them being really packed is the fact that they are open the longest of the 3 or 4 days (I forgot about Columbus Day.) they are open a week. So, skip that day and go another day.
