Halloweekends shows 2024
This is all just observations and speculation so far, haven't seen any announcements yet.
Looks like Jack Aldrich is a no show again. The wall is back up in front of the theater, and Midnight Syndicate announced back in April they wouldn't be doing a 2024 show.
Didn't notice any changes to the Palace theater yet, wonder if Wake the Dead will have a 3rd year, or if it's time for something new.
Celebration stage did have acrobat style trusses being assembled, will be interesting to see what's going on there.
Gemini Midway has the Clowns stuff set up already. There's a shipping container stage, but nothing in the seating area where the stage was last year yet.
The container stage from Boardwalk nights is still there, no idea if it'll be staying, or they just haven't gotten to removing it yet. A couple big Bonewalk banners on the dining room exterior.
Some of the smaller, unused this year, parade floats were outside the tent today, will they be repurposed, or just moved out of the way?
The show lineup appears to be similar to last season minus Midnight Syndicate.
With no Jack Aldrich in the mix we can hope that Fangs and The Shrieks will be back at least.
Wake the Dead is very popular so I could see it returning for another season, possibly with some changes. Carowinds will be doing a version of the show this year.
The work at the Celebration Stage suggests a new show with Les Productions Haut-Vol similar to Echoes of the Brimstone Club but without Midnight Syndicate.
The Butchers of Rock will likely move to the container stage instead of being tucked away in the former Snoopy Bounce area.
On the daytime front presumably The Monsters Are Coming, Charlie Brown (along with the costume contest at the end of each performance) will be back on the Celebration Stage and the Witch Sisters would return to Frontier Trail at the cabin circle.

Nothing to do with a show...but, one of my fav Halloweekend decorations in the park was always the life size giraffe with the red glowing eyes. Then they added a clown riding it.
**He was originally from Kiddie Kingdom if I remember correctly.
And yes, we miss the Jack Aldrich version of Midnight Syndicate.
