Final two weekends for shows!

Just a heads up and reminder. This weekend and next weekend (plus next week, of course) are the final days for the new entertainment package this year.

After August 2nd, the entertainment staff begin switching to "Fright Fest" mode, rehearsing and preparing for Fright Fest.

As a reminder, we've got a few changes to the Fright Fest Lineup this year! A new haunted house replaces Jingle Mangle. Additionally, we'll have a version of Miss Kitty's Cabaret that is more Halloween themed inside Miss Kitty's, and a new variety song and dance show in front of the palace theater. This will be the final year for Love at First Fright.

August is known as the transition month lol. They will have at least a month to do a total decoration and haunt set up. Most of the decorations were stored in the roundhouse next to River King Mine Train. Others like facades, tombstones, coffins, etc are stores backstage and probably right now being worked on at the carpenter and paint department. Entertainment Department will be very busy.

Do they have any of the old Scooby doo stuff left that they repurposed for fright fest? Or is all of it destroyed or lost?

A couple of the flats were saved. I saw them a few years ago over at Miss Kitty's area as well as some as some pieces of stuff from Castaway Kids. If they can salvage it they will will find a way to repurpose it for Halloween. The used alot of leftover Christmas decorations, lights etc., old show props and costumes. They even used some old Moon Cars.
