Knott's Scary Farm Preview 2016

Picture
Last night was the annual Knott's Scary Farm preview event. After going through the scariest part of the day (3 1/2 hours in traffic to get to Knott's) we spent some time in the park (that will be a separate update) prior to the event. 
After checking in we made our way to the Ghoul Time Theater to see what's awaiting us all in the fog this year.

It's not quite dark or foggy enough yet 
Picture
The Season Passholders waiting to get in. Seriously, is there a more dedicated fanbase anywhere? 
Picture
Picture
What's in the box? 
Picture
Fog slowly fills the theater as the monsters come out to play 
Picture
Picture
Picture
As the clock struck midnight, err, 8pm, it was time to see what horror was awaiting us in the box. 
Picture
To the horror of all it was none other than the master of scaremonies, Jeff Tucker. 
Picture
Picture
With that it was time to get on with the show. 

First up, the two shows coming to Scary Farm 2016. Elvira is back as well as the Hanging in it's all new location. Just the name of the Hanging made us want to see it. "Finding Gory". Perfect. 
Picture
Picture
Next up was the scare zones, and what would Scary Farm be without these 3 amazing area's. But could there be another Skywalker, err, scare zone? We'll have to wait and see.

Mazes

First up was the returning mazes. We've also included our maze video's from last year to get you familiar with what's waiting for you in the fog. 

First up, the fan favorite "The Toothfairy". 
Picture
Picture
Back again is "The Gunslinger's Grave - A Blood Moon Rises". This was actually one of our absolute favorite mazes last year. The addition of the Werewolves was awesome. 
Picture
Picture
Down on the bayou isn't just a song anymore, it's a curse waiting for you in "Voodoo - Order of the Serpent". 
Picture
Picture
"Trick or Treat", you don't want to smell the feet of the Green Witch. Trust us. 
Picture
Picture
The maze widely considered the best maze of Scary Farm 2015 (and pretty much from any event in Southern California") is back. Do you dare experience what "Paranormal Inc" has to show you? 
Picture
Picture
Back again is "Dead of Winter" but this time the Queen is dead and the Windigo is here to have his revenge. 
Picture
Picture
As announced at Midsummer Scream they are doing Skeleton Key rooms different this year with 4 separate interactive experiences - Slasher, Prey, Visions and Zozo. 

With Prey, you're on your own, not even the maze designers will save you, heck, they didn't even save the little girl. 
Picture

Picture
Then it was on to the new mazes. 

First up, Black Ops Infected is no longer taking over Camp Snoopy, but now is fully backstage which allows more sets and close quarters action. No more return time, just get in line and shoot some zombies!! 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Based on Japanese folklore, "Shadow Lands" is a new maze designed by John Cooke. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Knott's has always had a Red Barn that has mazes in it, so why not use that as a theme for the maze. Beware of the chainsaw killers in "The Red Barn". 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
And lastly, since Camp Snoopy is no longer being used for Infected, an all new scare zone called "The Hollow" will be haunting you. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
We'll be in the fog in less than a month ... 
Picture
After the announcement it was time to eat, and eat we did. 
Picture
These guys are the real MVPs
Picture
Picture
Jeff did an amazing job as always
Picture
They are waiting for you ...
