scarefest
okay. Lemme talk about this. Towers rant incoming. so as a huge scarefest fan I thought I would talk about the info we got on this years scarefest
first of all COMPOUND IS BACK. WOOOOHOOOO. It’s my favourite maze I’ve ever done. The theming and sets in there are amazing and I’m a huge sucker for that style maze where you get split up. Can’t wait to get dragged by my feet and yanked fully backwards again this year
BUT £15 FOR A SINGLE RUN OF A MAZE IS APPALLING. GENUINELY SICKENING. IM FINE WITB PAYING £10 ISH. BUT TWO 10 MINUTE EXPERIENCES BEING £30. THATS NOT ON. I HOPE THAT GETS ALTERED. BUT ITS NOT LOOKING THAT WAY.
but anyways, mine tours is back. I haven’t ever done it. But I think it’s coming to the end of its time. The concept of mine tours has been at towers for a while. Might be time to come up with something new in the coming years! Also both family mazes (amigos in the afterlife and trick’o treat town) are returning. I mean I’m not the target audience for those and I’ve never done either so I can’t really comment on it. Good to have something spooky that younger visitors can still enjoy though.
And finally the new maze which most people are guessing is gong to be themed to 13. I mean idk 13 has never interested me in all honesty. And I would rather see an original maze concept but it’s still cool we re getting a new maze. I just think the theme is a slight bit out dated as it’s a 15 years old ride. But heys that’s just me
I also wanna use this rant as an opportunity to remind people IF YOU KNOW YOUR BOUNDARIES. AND THAT A MAZE IS PUSHING THEM. JUST DONT GO IN. I heard way too many people last year complaining the mazes were too scary for them or their children. Number 1. If your child is younger than the age restrictions or doesn’t seem confident about being able to handle the intensity of the maze you’re taking them in. Don’t take them in. There was 4 children on my compound run last year and I think I saw 3 of them crying. and point number 2. It you are worried that you won’t be able to handle a maze. Look at the boards outside the maze that list the sensory components and maybe ask some people who have done the maze for their experience. A maze should be fun and not too overwhelming!
That being said if your in compound if you hear someone say “ELLO” to a guard and hear screaming becoming distant. It’s me bro. It happened again.
