IndyGuy4KI Posted Monday at 08:27 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:27 PM A new construction fence is now in the location of the old Axe, Axe, Baby's game location. This is the area under Diamondback's helix. What do you think this could be for? Are they going to use it for Haunt props, queue area for a maze, new drinks stand (unlikely), other ideas? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I...am SteVe Posted Monday at 08:33 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:33 PM It's probably either for Conjuring, or for some Haunt props. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losantiville Mining Co. Posted Monday at 09:48 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:48 PM The clearing behind it is what has me curious. As I mentioned in another thread it could just be work on a water pipe or other utilities. There's also a chance that it could be a check-in/sales area for The Conjuring if they for some reason need that. We haven't exactly heard how getting into the experience is supposed to work, so maybe there has to be a check-in area for some reason. If the clearing in the back is for a path, I'd be curious as to why construction wasn't begun sooner. It also appears to be on a hill, while there is a perfectly flat area between the corner and the games shed that a path could've gone on. I think it would be a great spot for a water feature and/or a new activity if it's not for Haunt. I'll be sad if the electric chairs are completely gone this year, hopefully they'll still be used somewhere. Side note: I wish they'd have either gotten rid of the "exciting new offerings" bit or chosen a different design for the construction wall vinyl covers. This fence is probably the best-constructed I've seen of them being used — none of the fence panels are askew or bumped out of place — but the way the vinyl has consistently been poorly hung makes it look bad IMO. It's one of the reasons why I'd like to see wood fencing/gates go up around Boo Blasters after it closes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One time when I was walking past, I was like, "what's that smacking noise?" and my friend said, "oh that's just the guy in the electric chair". I looked over and saw the animatronic doing some weird motions and looked quite terrifying 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losantiville Mining Co. Posted Tuesday at 12:56 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:56 AM I love the guy in the electric chair. He was really fun to see back when he was at the front entrance in front of one of the map holders. It kind of feels like Haunt really started to get too family-friendly after they removed him from that spot. I'll make another guess for that spot: a new temporary stage for Winterfest performances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion-XL200 Posted Tuesday at 01:03 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:03 AM I doubt it'll amount to anything "worthwhile." Why hide it behind a fence with screening if people riding Diamondback can see it from above. Likely a queue or something to do with what's coming into The Crypt building. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJSkyFoxx Posted Tuesday at 12:37 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:37 PM A haunted indoor bar Instead of The Conjuring it'll be "The Stumbling" 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastfan11 Posted Tuesday at 01:39 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:39 PM I’m going to take a wild guess and say Haunt lantern display, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOPGUN1993 Posted Tuesday at 05:51 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:51 PM My guess is they drop a few of the Winterfest crafting sheds here for ticket sales for Haunt or maybe a...... new bar! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why hide it behind a fence with screening if people riding Diamondback can see it from above. Likely a queue or something to do with what's coming into The Crypt building. I'd bet the wraps were already attached to the fence walls from the last time they were used. I don't know if the park owns those fences or if they rent them (why they'd still be renting them at this point IDK), but if they're constantly in use there's no need to take the wraps off. There's also the facts that most guests will think it looks better with them on and that people like us will talk about it. I'd say anyone riding Diamondback is also not doing much to look below the track during that helix. Maybe this weekend someone can take a photo of where more fences were next to The Conjuring from The Beast's queue. I'm sure we might see more work behind the AAB fences this weekend as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion-XL200 Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Yup...that's basically why I'm saying it's not going to amount to much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
