On a slightly random note, Six Flags Website has their Halloween skin layout put up for the season! :) I guess Fright Fest kicks off at most if not all parks this weekend?

I guess that now we know why they might have kept the Great American Raceway cars. That would be that they would be used in fun Haven but I don't think that was there plan from the begging. to me Deadline/Fun Have looks like it will be the haunted house that I will do.

Some parks like SFSTL, SFOG and SFMM don't start until October 5th. And it doesn't seem like they make up for that lost time either, SFOGs event is only 9 days!

Confirmed - $19.99 gets you all the 5 extra paid haunted attractions. There are no individual tickets.

I went through all houses last night (besides Medical, which I went through last year). You want to know more, hit me up on Facebook or something - I don't want to post anything here.

Decorations were well done.

TT2 is loud and amazing. No sound issues like last year.

Valhalla Fyre is interesting. Still needs to get certain things fixed before Saturday.

Looking forward to tomorrow! Like I said, want to chat more about it, hit me up via Facebook or PM or something - want to keep spoilers off this.

It had issues last year? I rode it a couple times and it seemed to but I probably didn't even notice anything.

Until the final weekend last year it was not at full volume capacity.

Did they have all the street actors out for preview night? I'm interested to see if any of the 50 new workers are actually out in the park or if they were split between the two new haunts.

Yes, all the areas had their characters out. I'd say anywhere from 5-8 (maybe more) in all themed areas.

Highlight of the day? FRIGHT CLUB. Beer is slightly expensive but the music and atmosphere is amazing. It's a good break from the lines.

I didn't really see them do anything for it. There was a sign at the beginning of the parade, tiny was in the hearse and they played a sadder song. That was about all I saw. She also has a tombstone by Carousel Gifts.

It was way more crowded then last years opening day for sure. It was still fun though. The new haunts are super fun. Deadline was cool but Wicked Woods was really fun.

It was which sucked and the new haunts ain't what i expected..... Wicked woods was just for scenery pretty much and deadline was the same...I liked the other 3 but the two new ones need improvement!
