I'm going to hold off on my review until I do every house, but I will throw out a few brief thoughts:
- The event in general feels much more complete than last year.
-
Cabin in the Woods and
American Werewolf in London are both insane houses and are currently tied for my #1 spot this year. If CitW wasn't a dream house of mine, I'd probably give AWiL my #1 spot without any questions because it's easily one of the best houses I've ever been in. However, I love CitW (the movie), so seeing that movie come to life was insane. Plus, the scares were plentiful for me.
-
La Llorona and
Evil Dead lacked the scares for me, but I feel like they'll both end up being higher up on my list by the end of the event. I definitely caught La Llorona during a cast change, plus it was simply to dark to see anything at the time. The facade and sets were amazing though.
-
Resident Evil was a really solid house with great sets. I don't know anything about the games (or the movies), but I still came out extremely satisfied with the house.
- The only good thing I can really say about
The Walking Dead is that it's better than last year's house. I really didn't do much for me. I feel like this is another one than will drastically improve by the end of the event, but I'm definitely tired of the property at this point.
- I didn't spend a large amount of time in the streets, but from what I did see, it was pretty cool. They're definitely better than last year's streets. The Walker Bomb is also really cool. I managed to catch it on my way out of the park and it's a really fun show/scare.
- I did not manage to do
Havoc,
Afterlife, or any of the shows last night.
