Halloweekends 2012

I'm sure that's the case. It just seems to me that there would be another alternative.

I would also not be suprised if the Skeleton Crew show replaces the Sideshow of Magic show. From what was described, they'll be kind of similar.

Also - three cheers for the idea of bringing back the Poe readings. I loved when they told the stories in the converted the glassblowing theater.... gave a very cool and somewhat creepy vibe. I think the show lost a bit when they moved it to the Aldrich theater.

Hmm.. I'm not sure in what manner, if any, the similarities between the two shows there may be. Sideshow is more of a magic show with a lot of dancing, while Skeleton Crew is more of a 'Cirque' type show with acrobatics. Not to mention, they're completely separate venues that the two play at.

I don't see a reason why they can't add a show to the lineup, instead of replacing one and leaving the theater without a show.

I'll take that bet.

Sideshow is returning this year.

When the Poe readings left the glassblowers theater they moved to the Palace Theater, not the Aldrich.

And I VERY much agree that we need the Poe readings back at the glassblowers!

Would you win that one ??

He would win that bet. Maintenance folk walk the track on a daily basis, inspecting, pounding nails and the like.

Is A Halloween Hullabaloo at the Good (Ghoul) Time Theatre returning as well?

Yes

Anybody know when the Halloweekends website will be available?

Probably around Labor Day.

Yeah, I thought that was the case. I just wasn't sure if they still did that even in the off season or when the ride was closed permanent for the year.

Here are some pics I took of the Eden Musee building and the start of the new entrance.

Hopefully going to head up there this Halloweekends. Just curious, will Shoot The Rapids be running? Might want to get a ride or two in...

Only on warm Saturdays was it open last year. Maybe a few Sundays.

Will the Fast Pass work on the HH's like the VIP pass did last year

No clue, it may even be a (new) separate type of pass that will cost you extra.

@TTD - Great pics!

They will offer Fright Lane. It was at Kings Island last year.

Did the Fright Lane get you on other rides as well, or just the HH's.

Rides are not included.
