 Today we've got a LONG overdue look at the awesome Scarywood at Silverwood Theme Park in Idaho. Check out some amazing pics by Matt at this event that most of us will never get to see in person!! Written by Matthew Nelson  Through the tunnel  The Pretty Horse is Away  Fog starts to roll in    Monsters along the path  Magic Show - Scarywood Edition  Spooky Version of My Favorite Water Feature  Clown Town! My favorite entrance to any scare zone anywhere...  Lights in Clown Town  Log Flume is OPEN! It was about 50 degrees, maybe a little cooler by the end of the night.  Pharaoh's Curse Excellent maze with plenty of strobes and mummies. Would benefit from an Iron Maiden 'Powerslave' soundtrack, imho.  Pharaoh's Curse detail
  Dolls!  Scarecrows  Good menu selection.  Tremors - Front Row in Near Total Darkness There's a strobe light facing riders at the bottom of the first drop- other than that NOTHING to light the way. It was AWESOME!  3Dementia  Maze with a cool entrance, but not scary at all. Some cool design and neon paintwork- but the monsters were doing the 'move weirdly and look bored' type thing that sucks.   Total Darkness It's the Feel Around maze. You just have to hang on to a wall and feel your way through.  Spidery stuff!  Big ole spider   Planet Zombie Arguably the best maze - reminded me of a cross between Aftermath at SFMM Fright Fest, and Infected:Special Ops at Knott's Scary Farm. REALLY would benefit from the Infected gun setup though- there's even a video as you wait in line where a guy screams "HEADSHOTS!"  Planet Zombie is very popular - it was the only real line for a maze we waited in last night  Spooky Roundup  Scrambler and Corkscrew in the dark  Spooky Scarecrow Land  Clown Town fun!  More Lights In Clown Town  Hi Clown!  Blood Bayou This was my favorite maze- the talent was ON, and it felt like a cross between Voodoo at Knotts Scary Farm (the first AMAZING year), and Slaughterhouse. Very detailed, plenty of fun scares.  Had a great night at ScaryWood!! Definitely recommended if you're going to be anywhere near the park. Related Videos:
Related Updates: +  Raise your hand if you think we've had too many Halloween updates lately!!! Well, we aren't gonna raise our hand, but we know some of you feel that way. Why don't we take a break from Halloween and look at a fun road trip Renee recently took to some out of the way parks in Alabama and Florida!! Written by Renée Girard Today we’re on a random road trip in the south! First stop of the day is The Track in Gulf Shores, AL.  We’re here for the spinning coaster! Park #1 of the day completed.     Next stop, The Park at Owa! Unfortunately it opens an hour later than advertised on the website, which puts a slight dent in our schedule, but we’ll make it work!  It looks like they’re getting ready for Halloween festivities.   There are some nice places at OWA, almost like a mini CityWalk. We decided to grab some drinks at the Groovy Goat. 
 We’re in! The Park is really nice. Everything looks great and clean.  First coaster ride at OWA is crazy mouse. Whoa, this thing can spin!  There is a decent selection of flat rides here as well.  Southern Express is the kiddie coaster at OWA . Might as well get a ride on it!    And then there’s Rollin’ Thunder, which one of our friends accurately described as the equivalent to being pushed in a shopping cart. 
 On to our next park!! The main reason for this trip, Waterville USA for the final weekend of Cannonball Run. Got our first and last rides in today.     Our final stop of our coaster tour in the south in Sam’s Fun City in Pensacola, FL.  We talked our way on to the Miner Mike kiddie coaster at Sam’s Fun City. A new low, but hey, why not when you travel a great distance.   And finally, to conclude our trip, we rode the Emerald Coaster at Sams Fun City, which only opened at the top of the hour, so getting another beer was the obvious choice. The coaster was surprisingly smooth! 
We hope you enjoyed this look at some out of the way parks!! We'll get back to our regularly scheduled Halloween updates tomorrow. =) Related Videos:
