This thread will be used for KIHaunt 2017 opening day updates. @malem and @IndyGuy4KI will be posting pictures, and doing a few Facebook interviews and updates from the park.  We hope to interview Don Helbig, fellow KIC members, and show you what is going on at the park during the evening. (No, I will not be going live in a maze.)

To get this topic started, let us know what pictures you would like, and what you would like to see on the FB live events. You can even include interview questions you would like answered about Haunt.

Birdie told me there will be some differences in Hot Blooded.  Differences - not a full rework.  I think that might be of interest to people.

Plus there's that Wasteland and the Dance of the Macabre.  Hmmm...

Maybe interview the cast of Blood Drums and get some "person on the street" interviews from the roamers? That could be fun! 

I'll be at the park, but I'll definently still watch the live streams after.

I would live stream the new scare zones. The interviewing KIC members does sound really cool, too.

Yes! An interview with a roamer would be awesome!

Hopefully you don't interview one whose only line of dialogue to be in character is 'brains'.  

I think last year on July 28th while at the Mystic Timbers announcement I was interviewed. Is their any forum or public site that would by any chance have interview footage?

 

 

 

 

In addition to my earlier suggestions, I think you all should ask Don what his favorite maze and scare zone are.

Don't forget to follow us on Instagram and Twitter for updates this evening as well! FB live updates and interviews are just hours away!

It's about time they got rid of DA! Excited for the future of that area!! I wonder if the Action Theater will go too?!

Blood Drums!

Excited to see that Dinos is finally closing! So many expansion ideas...

That troll was so awesome! Glad you got a pic of him with his eyes open; in mine, he's sleeping lol. I'm trying to figure out what to name him, but there are so many names that work. Wonder if he has an official name?

Great photos guys, hope all who went had fun! Look forward to going myself soon!
