The Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park at Universal Orlando's Islands of Adventure may be undergoing an expansion as soon as Summer 2012!
Apparently The Lost Continent area isn't very popular anymore and Harry Potter just might take over that region of the park within the next 2 to 3 years!
Via: Perez Hilton
Who knows how true this is, but wouldn't it be amazing!

Catacombs: Black Death Rising
In 1534, an undisclosed outbreak plagued thousands of citizens in Paris and Marseilles.

Until now... they are rising, ready to take vengeance on any living being that dares to enter the Catacombs.

It’s Zday +6 months. The US government has taken back the continental states while clearing the remaining Canadian infestations.

Then there’s ZAP… The Zombie Awareness Program
Legendary Truth: The Wyandot Estate
The Spirit Seekers have created a machine to attract spirits, and are broadcasting live from one of the most “haunted” sites in the US.

Now as the murdered hear their call they answer the team with terrible violence.
PsychoScareapy: Echoes of Shadybrook

Howl-O-Scream Busch Gardens Florida 2010 TV Commercial
Also new this year, according to the official site, will be a haunted house concept called Alone, which is being billed as "A personal experience in horror." It tells the story of the deranged Master Alexander Daedalus, whose odd collections and obsessive hoarding behavior are expanding to include people… most notably, anyone who dares enter his storage warehouse. The catch? Guests are encouraged to experience the haunted house by themselves, or - for the faintest of heart - in a group of no more than four people. There is a small charge for the experience, but those who brave it alone will receive a T-shirt… if they survive.
