Went on a Saturday. Way too many bodies for my comfort, but I'm pretty conservative on that front. Most folks were wearing masks, but enough not wearing to make you jumpy. Lines for rides were too long for us to deal with (all 1 hour +, that's a Saturday for ya). We saw all scare zones - the Junkyard, the Shortcut, and Lycans landing were the best, but all leave something to be desired compared to haunted houses. Busch Gardens did their best there, no haunted houses is definitely the right call for safety but it's hard to meet those high expectations with scare zones. Saw the Fiends show, it was amusing, a bit odd.

Overall, the reduced price this year was fair and warranted. A bit expensive, but that's expected. We were happy to get out of the house, but I'm not sure I would do an event like this again. Okay experience. Glad to support the actors and regional economy. I'm staying away from my family's old folks for 2 weeks, but nothing seemed too high risk except the sheer size of the crowd.
