Alright ladies and gents, Kings Dominion has sent me off a little email of all the cool stuff going on for this years Haunt!

Today when I was at the park I noticed a lot of haunt stuff going on, including Dodgem being shut down for upcoming haunt stuff (pictures coming after midnight like always.. or go to Coaster Crew facebook). As many of you know Dodgem as never been shut down for a maze so that means new maze!!

Whoah! it does sound sweet esspecially the Medieval Macabre, it sounds very unique, while the Slaughter House sounds like it will be more un-original as chainsaws are in every haunted house i go to. Im thinking the Medieval one will be in the Dodgems? I wonder where the Slaughter House will be?!

btw... is Feary Tales a new section?!

Nah! it was there last year where it was placed in front of Adventure Cafe. It's a small zone also it started later during last year's Haunt. To be honest I didn't like that area to have a scare zone because it was somewhat placed by KidZone and it was on a incline.

Was it the central area right behind the eiffel tower going down to the carousel

I know this is probably a stupid question, but I've never been to the Halloween Haunt thing before but we might be going this year and I was wondering if all the rollercoasters are open?

by **Clint Novak** » Mon Aug 10, 2009 11:56 pm

Most of them.... During that part of the year alot of seasonal employees are already gone.. so they open up all A list attractions first.. then B... then C... so some times not all rides get opened.

BLOOD SHED?!!!!
NOOOO WHYYY.

i'm thinking the chainsaw one will be in the grizzly arcade where my lovely beloved blood shed was.

i'm shedding tears

yet they keep alien outpost

Thanks for the update Clint... Everything sounds great!
Im glad to hear they have added 2 more mazes and have not taken out any.

I will be going for dress rehersal probably at the end of this month
...looking foward to it.

We got a post card in the mail stating that we can keep our same positions as last year year, and if we like switch it we have to shot them an email...
So Tim, what have you decided on.

To answer your question Shannon, FOF closes at 6 on sat. & Sun. and not open on fridays. (as Alien Outpost is housed there)

Im also wondering where Slaughter house will be located and hopefully they will up Blackbeard's Revenge some kind of way to make it more terrorism.

So Flight of Fear does stay open (coaster part) thats good, I never knew that I thought it was shut all day.

Slaughter House sounds like it may be a revamped Blood Shed.

Feary Tales? I didnt know that was there last year? I never saw it. I hope its good this year cause it sounds cool.

Ugh im kinda mad that I never got to go in Bloodshed, but im sure Slaughter House will be almost the same thing.

Im really excited for Medieval Macabre! Just cause it will be different and is new. I hope it delivers

Really? they STILL have Alien Outpost??? It SUCKS! I really hope they make it better than ever cause that one is a snoozer.

Feary Tales was a new scare zone from the left side of the tower which sets from the Nick Spash Zone to where those "One in Wins" Basketball games is. It also started late during Haunt but, to me it wasn't soo great.

To me I think Slaughter House will be a revamp version of Bloodshed. I kinda like Bloodshed, the chickens swaking, the overfilled moonhouse that sprays water at certain times and those hanging corpses, that's cool.

Every time I go to AO it always be less people working there. At first I seen about 20 going in and then I walked in it's about 4 or 5. They need to revamp that as well.

I was watching last evening news and was reporting that a lot of people doing applications and interviews for haunt. I didn't make it this time but I'll be there next week. I know now that it will be alot of people working there and hopefully it will be a good year for it.

....

Really? I was at the Haunt twice last year, and when I go to the park it's for nearly the whole day since I'm coming from MD... and FoF was never open in the Haunt when I went by it. Would be great if it would be open during the Haunt this year. I'd really like to see them operate the actual ride during the Haunt though, maybe with some extra haunt-related theming in the launch tunnel and spaghetti bowl, scare actors doing the launch announcements, and so on.
