Which maze are you most excited about this year at Scary Farm?

[@TayloroliviaGracieLana]

Went in 1999 never experienced anything like it a must go for any Halloween lover

[@theFUNnelCakeBlog]

I've gone (multiple times) every year since elementary school! Agreed. It's a must and an integral part of the season!

[@DigiAkuma]

Looking forward too but Staying optimistic about this year. I've had a rocky year since 2024 began, but going through some major changes. Going the first night is off the table, but if all goes well, I can visit at least one night in October

[@theFUNnelCakeBlog]

Hope you make it out this year and that you are doing well!

All I want is an actual frightening experience. All these extra gimmicks, celebrity endorsements, lantern doo dats, and dynamic story driven theatrics is all cool, I’m not dogging it, but I want to actually attend a haunt for once that fulfills the fear requirement. I’ve felt that over the years, haunts have become shells of their former selves. With softer families demanding that scare actors tone down their scare tactics in favor of more family friendly experiences, mazes becoming more about the aesthetics and effects over true horror snd terror, and theme park security being forced to have their hands tied when handling drunk and violent patrons that attack actors because management is afraid of backlash and losing returning customers. I get family friendly experiences bring in more revenue, hence why Disney year after year blows every theme park out of the water with their holiday specific events, but scary farm and horror nights were always meant to be in their own league. The adult event of the season. Though I still love to attend these haunts, it does pain me to see every year management choosing flare and theatrics over practical and effective haunts. Let the scare actors slide and scare, and for gawd sakes bring back the chainsaws.

[@theFUNnelCakeBlog]

I think the issues you point out also have to do with sheer number of people that attend these events now and guest flow/control. The smaller, independent haunts often offer a more intimate experience and scares, but don't need to push tens of thousands of people through every night. There's still nothing like walking though Ghost Town in the fog though!

Do you think Haunted Lounge will come back this year?

[@adamautumn2329]

I see why not

[@theFUNnelCakeBlog]

@DrOz-pe5fh It was announced during the event that there will be a Haunted patio setup in the hotel courtyard.

They keep houses wayyy too long 3-4 years average. It's no longer a true pandemic let's get at least half of the lineup new every year.

[@theFUNnelCakeBlog]

I think that time frame has been in place since before the pandemic. The mazes usually last 3-4 years. A few have been around longer, but there are usually 2-2 new ones each year.

[@ItsShizuki]

Is this the last scary farm experience? My grandma was upset because she believes there wont be one next year due to its competition.

[@theFUNnelCakeBlog]

@@ItsShizuki There was a click bait article saying it was the last Scary Farm but it was actually talking about a maze retiring. Scary Farm is not going away.

[@ItsShizuki]

@@theFUNnelCakeBlog thank you, this was my first scary farm experience yesterday and I really didn't want it to be my last! Thank you for clarifying

[@hauntmaster100]
