Also, "Run, Run, Run" appears in all of them... Run house represented somewhere in the event? Is Eddie finally gonna make an official appearance?

I wouldn't count on it, personally

Here's a recap on the mysterious HHN packages: http://orlandounited.com/2015/05/hhn-25-teasers/

The popcorn boxes and the writing inside them could lend themselves to so many interpretations... I'm hoping for the return of my beloved Icons! I can see Jack, the Director and the Usher represented in these gifts. Also, "Run, Run, Run" appears in all of them... Run house represented somewhere in the event? Is Eddie finally gonna make an official appearance?

Can't wait to find out more this coming Tuesday! op:

Insiders were saying when the list was leaked Eddie wouldn't be in the Run house, but he'll probably show up in the icon house or scarezone.

I wouldn't be so sure that there's gonna be a Run house at all...

Am I the only one who wants jack alone this year? Too many icons just makes it cluttered and less original in my opinion

 

[OrlandoGuy]

There will only be one official icon. One guy for the shirts, billboards, marketing, AND he is supposed to have his own show.

I...god, I'm gonna get crap for saying this, but I'm a little tired of Jack. They just use him SO much. I understand he's loved, and fun, and he was the original, but it's starting to feel like overkill at this point.

I'm hoping the Director has some role this year. The popcorn boxes and some of the things written do describe him quite well.

May 19th... the fun begins!!!!

 

[Cole]

Games/announcement?!?! I'm pumped lol. I agree jack is played out but he's fun enough for me to not care if he comes back or not

I'm more tired of TWD. At least Jack is an original HHN character, TWD has been beat to death. Less TWD, more original ideas.

Jack certainly is the more popular icon...The 'Mickey Mouse' of HHN as I say a lot...I'm not surprised he is returning..makes a ton of sense from a marketing perspective

HHN Rumors is speculating on the new pricing for this year's event

http://hhnrumors.com/hhn-ticket-prices-soar-break-100-mark/

Going to HHN this year just got a bit more expensive. Rumor has it that the price of a single night ticket without any discounts will cost $102 plus tax. That’s a $6 increase over the same ticket last year. Frequent Fear Pass Plus (without discount) is still at an affordable rate of $111 plus tax which will get you back to the event numerous times. Remember, until Universal officially releases ticket prices, this is all just speculation and subject to change. Some other notable ticket options are as follows:

Single Night Admission (No Discount) – $102
FFP (No Discount) – $95
FFP+ (No Discount) – $111
Rush of Fear (No Discount) – $84
Single Night Admission Non Peak (FL Res Coupon/Annual Pass) – $50
Single Night Admission Friday (FL Res Coupon/Annual Pass) – $61
Single Night Admission Saturday (FL Res Coupon/Annual Pass) – $77
FFP (Annual Pass) – $84
FFP+ (Annual Pass) – $99
Rush of Fear (Annual Pass) – $73

Express passes have supposedly gone up to $130 a night. YIKES! They have also supposedly introduced a new after 10pm express pass that will be around $70. I imagine the ticket price increase is due to adding the 9th house and it’s an anniversary year. Will we see another rate hike again next year? What will justify the added expense?

 

[Brian G.]

Doubt we'll see any Midnight closings this year if that After 10 option is true.

 

[kingcooger]

I wonder what the price will be for each of these passes with that 10pm express pass tacked on?

 

[ThemeParks4Life]

Holy hell, up to $130 for Express? :faint:

 

[Cole]

Good lord that express update!!!! That friggin sucks I'm sorry, if they wanted a way to reduce capacity this isn't the answer. By the way I'm sick of TWD WAY before jack. At least jack is a blast of a character and can fit into literally any setting

 

[Shucker]

Any word on the Rush of Free with Express??

 

[OrlandoGuy]

If what I think I know is right, then TWD will hardly be present in any of the marketing. The focus of the event will most definitely be Jack (he's even supposed to get his own show) and the "big" IP will be Freddy vs Jason.

The "After 10pm Express Pass" is something that has existed for years. Depending on closing time that event night, they will discount the price of Express by 50% around 10 or 11pm. My brother and his girlfriend got this last year, since they only went one event night, and they paid $50 for theirs (instead of $100). I believe they specifically got it after 11pm for an event night that had a 2am closing time. (Although, as it goes, OPs in different places roll out things at different times, and you might be able to buy it discounted at different times depending where you get it? I'm not sure about this part. But anyways, if I'm not mistaken, I wanna say they got theirs at the Kwik-E-Mart?)

UPDATE: Ok, I had it pretty much right... I checked with my brother and this is what actually happened. That night it was $100 and they got it for $50. They first asked about it at the MiB gift shop and they were told it would be available after 11pm. Then they were buying something else at the Kwik-E-Mart and someone in front of them in line was buying it, so they asked there and actually got it around 10:20pm for $50! :thumbs:

I wonder if we'll see the announcement come tonight at midnight like many other HHN reveals..
