Last week Matt made his way out to Scarywood for the opening night of their 2021 event! We have lots of pictures to get to in this one so we'll get right to it! Written by Matthew Nelson  Scarywood Review: Of the mazes, as always, Blood Bayou is the best. Imagine Willoughby's mixed with Voodoo from Knott's Haunt. It's a big long maze with a lot of talent and a lot of scares. Planet Zombie is my second favorite. It's a zombie maze where you're supposed to get to a safety checkpoint without getting bit. Good long maze with some really nicely done outdoor sections. It feels like what the Walking Dead attraction should have been like. Occasionally claustrophobic, and feeling like you really need to get through. Pharaoh's Curse is cool - it definitely improved with its new location. Has one of the best horrific gags anywhere. The priests tear the heart out of a writhing screaming person in a Scarywood hoodie. Dr. Delirium's 3D Rockhouse is a fun, loud weird mashup of everything unlicensed. Bonus points for playing KMFDM music. Let's get to the pics!   A little something extra for Scarywood 
   The entrance area to the park  This is the best maze of the event- good long, loaded with cool stuff, and monsters galore.  Tilt A Whirl in the Rain  Scary Dolls. My second favorite scare zone- they do a great job standing in the dark- there's not a lot of light around other than the dollhouse facade. 
 Best tagline and rename of a food location- Plagued Pizza
 The ride WAS running for the event, until the rain came. The clowns seemed to like the rain. Clown Town is the biggest, most populated scare zone. I love it  It was still running in the rain.  Normally wouldn't be able to take this photo- because I'm standing in the gravel beside the ride's queue. So, while it sucks to not be able to ride this beauty until next year, I can see it while walking to and from the 3D maze.  This is a fun maze, with entertaining videos setting up the whole thing while you wait out front. There was a lot of excellent talent in here last night, and it's a good long maze with inside and outside sections.  I started with the stuff to the left- what would normally be the dry park, but the rain came and kinda changed that.  This is another part of the pathway you can't avoid. They were doing a good job of ganging up on people, too.  It was VERY dark by Tremors  Chucky was waiting for people to head out of Clowntown and in to the dark area he was lurking in.   Fog and rain It made the whole event feel surreal   Zombies and Corkscrew     Just hanging around  I made a friend! Related Videos

10/16/2018 Scarywood 2018 at Silverwood 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:
