It will be my first experience like this. I've never done any kind of haunted house in my life but that won't get in the way between me and Kong!!!

We don't do haunted attractions very often. During the last one, my wife got so panicked that she couldn't find the door. Eventually the monster that was caring her just pointed to it so we could move on. Later, she heard a chainsaw and ran for the exit. We never saw the guy wielding it.
Pretty sure neither she nor the kids will ride this one. The kids may change their minds when they are older. But I'll give it a try. Looks cool.

This looks like a textbook Disney dark ride.
Elaborate themeing- Check

Impressive AAs- Check
Interactive Queue- Check

And yet, it will be the most "Universal" attraction ever. Remember, their fab five looks like

Whew! I thought I was going to have to refer you to some sort of support line...Lol, that one yes
I think Kong is going to be "Jungle Cruise scary" rather than haunted at any rate.
Ummmmmmm the queu is far past anything Jungle Cruise.

I wonder if there might be a warning for parents not to bring children to this attraction due to its scare factor?

Scares build character.

Yep, but I hope some parents could at least check the park map to make sure which attraction they should go on with there children. Especially after the amount of parents that took there children to the Alien Encounter attraction at WDW many years ago.
Nope. I got close when they had Alien vs. Predator but I had to write a paper instead of going with my friends. Priorities.

Actually reading that is what brought me to the thread again. There was quite an infodump for a 10-picture "essay". This looks to be even more epic than I thought. There are a couple things in there I don't think Disney would ever dare do. This is probably as excited as I have been for a ride since Everest (and something tells me, unless Kong goes Disco*, I'll be much less disappointed this time, haha).
*OK, how cool would it be for HHN to really light Kong with Disco lights and snow as an "homage" to the Yeti....haha

If the queue scares you the ride should give you apoplexy. Probably should sit this one out if you won't do the queue.

So they'll have actors in the queue? I wonder if that won't become a staffing issue, long term. Especially if the roles can only be done by actors with a specific look.
The "Witch Doctor" looks like there's a huge switchback in front of him. I guess he's the new Botanicus?
