Description[]
The all-new maze will delve deep into brilliant parapsychologist Dr. Elise Rainer's past, starting with a childhood in which her paranormal abilities emerged... until her mother's untimely death by a demonic entity.
Troubled by a lifetime of evil supernatural spirits trapped in the Further-a vacuous netherworld caught between the living and the dead-Elise will take guests on an unsettling journey back in time through a portal into the Further to defy the most depraved and intimidating beings that have tormented her since the 1950s.
Experience[]
Facade[]
Outside the queue for the maze was Tucker and Specs interacting with guests. The facade for this haunted maze was the Santa Clarita House. There was a cut out of Anna in the windows of the facade that appeared and disappeared. The lights on the house would sputter on and off. Guests would then enter the house.
Haunted Maze[]
When guests entered the house, they would see a cross on the right wall and a Pepper's Ghost effect of a ghost boy who would appear and then disappear at the top of a flight of stairs. Guests then went into a short hallway into the living room where a projection of the Key Face Demon would appear in the window and start clawing at the glass with his keys. Then, he would pop out from the right of the window. There was also a mannequin of Gerald Rainer watching the TV.
Then guests entered a black hallway that led to another hall where Anna would pop out from a boo-hole.
Guests would then enter the laundry room where a static figure of the young Elise Rainier was hiding behind clothing sheets. Anna would then pop out from behind the sheets. Guests would then enter the fallout shelter.
In the fallout shelter was Elise's mother being strangled by electrical cords and struggling to get out as the light bulb in the scene flashed on and off. While guests were distracted, Key Face would pop out from the left and guests would then enter the hidden cell.
In the hidden cell was the Ghost Boy pointing left to the red metal door as a mannequin of Mara with a lock on her could be seen next to it. Guests would then enter the Further.
Inside the Further was Anna on a elevated platform with a lantern as she lunged out to scare guests. Guests would enter a short black hallway where the Key Face Demon popped out.
The next scene was a bedroom with Christian Rainier choking a woman as a red lamp lit the scene. Guests would then enter a kitchen where a baby could be seen crying and a baby carriage on the table. Red light came through the curtains of a window as the Kitchen Woman appeared and attacked guests with a knife.
Guests would enter a series of black hallways before entering a red door with a red light above it.
Guests would find themselves in the Lambert House from the first movie where a painting of the Lambert family could be seen at the end of the hall. The Bride in Black pulled back to painting to scare guests. Then guests would enter the Red Lipstick Demon's Lair where "Tip Toe Through the Tulips" was playing. At the end of the hallway, the Lipstick Face Demon would pop out from behind a curtain.
Guests would then enter another series of black hallways before entering another red door.
Then, guests would find themselves in Parker Crane's room which had a dollhouse with red light coming out of it and a mannequin of Parker Crane sitting on the bed. Michelle Crane would then pop out from behind the corner.
Guests would then enter another series of black hallways before coming up to a red elevator and enter it. Inside, The Man Who Can't Breathe would pop out from behind a wall panel. Then, guests would enter a black room before then entering a red prison door to Dewbend Penitentiary.
Inside Dewbend Penitentiary was a prison hallway where Gerald Rainier would pop out from the right behind a prison cell. Each of the prison cells had mannequins behind them. In the last cell on the right the Key Face Demon popped out.
Guests would then enter a series of black hallways with multiple boo-hole scares. First The Bride in Black, then Anna, then The Man Who Can't Breathe, then the Lipstick Face Demon, and finally the Key Face Demon. Guests would then exit the maze.
