Looks great.... thanks Walt!

So Fear Faire is going to be in the old Pirate Ride, or in a picnic shelter?

Fear Faire will be at Point Pavilion. The Pirate Ride location is just for promotion and will be used by the Palm Readers during HalloWeekends.

Yes but how does that make you feel? ;)

I can't wait to try this haunt out. I have a taste for haunted houses. Run one myself during the last two weeks of October.

The fog in Fear Faire is going to be really intense with that roof over their heads. The fog is a Screamster's best friend. :)

We'll see about that. If that wind is coming off the bay, it won't be that great.

So is it going to be enclosed?

Sort of enclosed.... in the picinic pavillion behind Raptor.

I know where it is, but is it a walk thru (like I've heard) or is it going to be like LOTV?

I have no reason to believe that it will be any different from Fright Zone or Carnevil. I think there will be a "path" constructed through the shelter just to keep the area minimized, it would be chaos to just have guests wandering all around that shelter area.

But that wouldn't be any different than CarnEvil.

Exactly, hence the reason I don't think they'll make that mistake again.

I hope there is a path, more like FrightZone or Werewolf Canyon, than spread out like CarnEvil... In CarnEvil it doesn't seem like there are enough Screamsters for as much wide open space as they have.

i've never been to cedar point on halloweekends. the cp website say's limited rides on friday nights, what rides are closed? any help would be appreciated, planning on going this year for the first time. bob.
