My guess is fire hazard
That feels likely. The fiber optics feel very last-minute and tacked on.

There are still cotton balls attached to the spores.; At least last time I went through the maze there were. Unless, they pulled them off.
All they had to do was use a soap bubble machine like the snow at Disneyland. Knott’s could afford it for Dead of Winter. Don’t tell me HHN can’t afford it. That’s what Orlando did.
I think at Midsummer Scream they specifically said they didn't want to do that, as they wanted the particles to move in all directions of the xyz axis and not just down and side to side, though I agree it would have probably looked more convincing, but hey theres always next year.All they had to do was use a soap bubble machine like the snow at Disneyland.

The only thing that moves is the projection of more particles, but its much too faint to see clearlyI mean ultimately nothing moved at all. The fiber optics have small, hidden fans that theoretically move them but don't do anything in practice.
I did see trace amounts of cotton on a handful of fiber optics today. Most of it appears to have been removed... I think the original plan might to have been relatively large cotton encasing each fiber optic, for a more glowy, ethereal effect.
Stretch FX is an incredible material to work with, but quickly wears down due to over use. I really hope they replace the 2 sections of paneling that rely on this effect halfway through the season. (Being honest, they won't)
They did last year for the Baghuul scare - a few times, in fact.
The Demagorgon one takes more stress because it's the claws doing the tearing instead of gentler gloved hands.
Oh no. We're talking about two different forms of the material. - I'm talking about the demagorgon imprints in the letter room and the one in the hallway

My bad! Yeah, I'm not clear if they're planning on replacing them outright. They're definitely tightening them between weeks and are generally holding up pretty well.
From October 29th to November 2nd, Universal Studios Hollywood will be offering for the first time; a daytime "Lights On" experience, included with admission to the park; giving you the chance to see a lights on version of Stranger Things.
This really surprises me, but, cool opportunity for guests. Do you have a link?

This tells me one of two things..
1. Universal is testing the viability of a Hollywood version of Unmasking The Horror behind the scenes tours..
2. Universal is testing the viability of Stranger Things possibly becoming a year-round attraction in the future ala TWD by testing how non-HHN guests react to the IP in the daytime..
