    • Just put in a massive order from different companies for new stuff for the Darkness haunt tour.

      We will open the Darkness as we're totally building a new section... it will be creepiest, nastiest sewer you've ever seen. it will be really big and complicated build out. I'm excited. We're also going to try and renovate the Lemp Brewery and open that as well.

      Lastly, we're still looking into how to do some kind of tour at Creepyworld. Stay tuned.

      • THE MOST UP TO DATE UPDATE (LOL).

        We're going to open ONLY the Creepyworld Hayride for a tour. We're also working with a light company to put on a Halloween light display. We're also building an entertainment pavilion at Creepyworld so that will be open as well we hope!

        So for sure we're going to open our hayride and we're going to add a few more things to the hayride as well. Will be very cool trust me on that one.

        We will re-open the darkness as we're building an all-new section at the exit of The Darkness. We plan on building a sewer system and its going to be way way over the top. This will be the creepiest sewer you've ever seen and we're designing it to include walking thru water. I know that sounds sick but it will be... so yes there will be floating trash in it! LOL

        I've already hired Unit 70 and Poison Props to build props for it ... already started.

        Also we're planning on a revamp of Lemp and will open Lemp as well.

        Here is what we're looking at as a schedule ROUGHLY

        Thursday - Behind the Scenes Tour (Darkness and Lemp)

        Friday - Creepyworld Haunted Hayride with Bonfire (Free hot dogs and marshmallows)

        Saturday Darkness and Lemp will open in the same night. After you visit one you go to the other.

        Escape Rooms open every single night... including our 3 minute escape room. Our escape rooms will have all new puzzles in time for the show. We're revamping the Mummy and Cellar.

        So this is the plan.

        • Quick update...

          Yes we're going to open Creepyworld partially. We're going to open our hayride, trailer haunt (hospital) and Krampus our Christmas haunted house. You get to go thru all three. to open the rest would be way way to hard. It takes months to open Creepyworld so there just is no way. But our hayride is pretty cool so we think you'll like it...

          And yes we're going to try and open Lemp as well. Work on Darkness new sewer will start in two weeks.

                • Thanks Dave! We will begin to take down a section of Darkness when I get back from Orlando. Construction will begin on an all-new section in The Darkness.

                  We also will be building some new things for Creepyworld for the haunt tour.

                  All coming soon!

                  • Just a quick update... nothing is final but this our our plans and where what we're doing roughly.

                    WED: Behind the scenes tour Darkness and Abyss (Lemp) two haunts one price. $125.00 per person. Take photos, videos, etc.

                    THUR: Creepyworld Hayride Tour with Krampus, and Trailer Haunt. Once everyone rides the hayride we'll open our hayride up and other attractions so you can walk thru them with the lights on. We're not opening Creepyworld as a whole because it would just take way to long and be way to complicated to set up. $85.00

                    FRI: Darkness and Abyss open with Zombie Laser Tag. With actors both at the same time. So you'll go from one to the other. You can buy a ticket to one or both and or upgrade to the zombie laser tag. Darkness $50.00 Abyss $30 Zombie Laser Tag $10 add on.

                    SAT: I will not be doing anything on Saturday this year because I plan on hosting a party more details coming soon.

                    Every single event will have a MAX number of people. Behind the scenes tour will be limited to the first 400 people. There is no way to do more than that. Every year it sells out. Creepyworld Tour first 600 people because we want to run with one tractor. Will not accept more. Darkness/Abyss: Abyss will be capped at first 600 people WILL NOT ACCEPT MORE because its hard to run people thru it. Darkness will be capped at 1000 will NOT accept more so we can space people. Once everything is sold out we're done.

                    • not a good schedule larry

                      the tradeshow floor is open thur fri sat sun closing early.. not everyone will be in st louis wednesday (myself included ) the haunt bus tour is tues wed not returning to st louis until wednesday at 1 am... your haunt with actors should be before the lights on tour,,,customers who go through the haunt and kinda see something (because of less light ) want to know what that was that kinda seen and will PAY to come back to your lights on, behind the scene....just my opinion

                      • We haven't decided anything final but we'll look into everything... honestly I'm just tired of these and they wear me out. I'm not 30 anymore... wish I was! I was thinking of not doing anything on Saturday. Good points.

                        BTW we're doing Christmas this year here is a quick video we made.

                        • BTW... we've already started working on Darkness. We've already completed the entire downstairs renovations.

                          This will be the Darkness 25th Year of Fear.

                          We're doing something new in every section which includes...

                          Downstairs: We've already repaired everything and added one new scene ALREADY! will send pictures after its painted.

                          Upstairs: We're adding a CGI FX to the bathroom so it looks like someone is being stabbed in the shower. We're building out the entire last part of the darkness FROM SCRATCH. ALready removed part of it. This will be turned into a super high end bad ass sewer complete with animations, cgi fx and tons of new props from Unit 70 and Poison Props.

                          Zombie Haunt: Yes we even worked on this... we added several new shadow FX cgi to simulate zombies and humans fighting. Its bad ass! Plus we built one whole entire new scene. Already done. Will send pics.

                          Terror Visions: Every year people say their favorite part is Terror Vision but the funny thing is we haven't added even so much as a new animation in over two years. So this year we're building an entire new scene, which includes us tearing down entire sections of wall system. Unit 70 is making custom props for this and its going to be super bad ass. It will also require us to whip out the CNC machine.

                          So if you come to the tour of Darkness this year... upstairs, downstairs, terror visions and silo-x zombie laser tag will all have something new!!!!

                              • So let me begin... this is going to be the Darkness 25th Year of Fear! This could also be the last year for The Darkness because I'm selling the building. I do plan to move it to a much better location much like Netherworld. Nothing is final yet but that is the plan. I'm buying a new building that is about twice as big as my current one. Anyway...

                                So here is the complete run down of exactly what we're doing and there will be something for everyone.

                                Darkness downstairs:

                                See the pic below not sure why the site turns photos on their side. But the new scene for The Darkness downstairs is already done. We did this prior to our Christmas event.

                                Darkness upstairs:

                                We're tearing out the entire back part of The Darkness relocating some of those props to other spaces on the second floor. What is going in its place is an 'IT' style sewer system. The sewer is going to have custome animations from Poison Props and Unit 70. The sewer is going to be the coolest thing we've ever built ever. We're not starting this until after this weekend because of the Christmas Krampus event. We're also adding a CGI FX to the bathroom that simulate someone killing someone in the shower.

                                Terror Visions:

                                We have not done anything to Terror Visions in three years but this year we are! We're building a new scene and changing another. The new scene will include us making stuff on a CNC machine, custom animation from Unit 70 and much more. So yes Terror Visions will be different.

                                Silo-X:

                                Since you came last we've added a whole new scene and its pretty awesome. Also we are adding four CGI FX showing zombies and humans fighting this is done with a projector. When you tour this attraction this year it will be as a zombie laser tag event.

                                Gift Store: We are rebuilding this and will have many new cool t-shirts and stuff. Everything will be new.

                                Escape Rooms: For one last year we barely got that haunted hotel up and running. This year its totally done with new puzzles that never got done during last years TW show. Furthermore we have rebuilt our Mummy escape room adding 4 new interactive digital props/puzzles. The escape rooms will be avail for a behind the scenes tour however but we're not doing any type of escape only event just a behind the scenes tour and you can book the rooms.

                                Lemp Brewery: We're trying to re-do this haunt but we're going to open it only for you to walk thru with the lights on. This event will happen same night as Darkness behind the scenes tour so its a two for one deal.

                                Creepyworld: We're going to open our hayride, trailer haunt, and Krampus haunt for a lights on tour and hayride.
