Hollywood Gothique

We were plenty disappointed earlier this year when we heard that Lore of the Vampire would not be back at the 2008 Knott’s Scary Farm. Fortunately, it turns out that Labyrinth (which is housed in the same Balloon Race area where Lore used to be situated) is a more than adequate replacement, as you can see in this video:

There is a similar kind of eleganct ambience to this maze, which relies more on ethereal atmosphere than jump-and-scare shock tactics. Maybe Lore of the Vampire had run its bloody course, and it was time for something new. It’s great that the Knott’s haunt team did not throw out the mutant baby with the blood-water.
