Halloween Horror Nights 28 General Discussion

[sadbunny]

Wait times seem to be a bit inflated. Stranger Things doesn’t look like a 2 hour wait. Scary Tales isn’t a 40.

It seems like they have been almost 20 mins above what the actual wait is.

Nevermind.

Stranger Things was 40-45minutes actual wait time, posted wait time when entering queue at 1:55am was 105 minutes, in fact for almost the entire night it was 105min. On a Sunday night.

We had similar (40mins when it said 90). All of the wait times seemed incredibly off this year. Which is really annoying since it's difficult to plan what you actually want to do.

The wait times are "inflated" incase the house gets bombarded by express users while you're in line. It's a worst case scenario

Especially the last hour of the event, if it’s a 20 minute wait it’s a walk on. I waited 25 minutes for ST when the sign said over an hour.

IDK...I think there's a difference between inflated for a worst case scenario, and estimating double the actual wait.

yeah it sounds like they were trying to sell more express

 

[JoeCamel]

yeah it sounds like they were trying to sell more express

Or to dissuade people from getting in line 5 mins before closing time

Except my biggest one was at 9:30.

doubtful, they sell out of express on busier nights before the event actually begins

Ugh my friends were killing me on planning this year. "Can I just buy express the day of? It's so expensive" There won't be any left!!

 

[Lucky Planet]

Heres a good question
Would charging universal employees for entrance to hhn help the crowds?

How many guests are employees every other day?

They can have my included "free" night. Not much good to me without express and a room.

Also I don't think you should have to buy express to have a reasonably good time... (I always have fun and never buy express) but I don't think express should be mandatory for enjoyment of the event.

You don't. I've NEVER had express and always have a great time. Stay and Scream is more important than Express

Generally the three-house tour is different though, correct?

I did the three house on opening weekend and it was stranger things,carnival graveyard,and scary tales.

Not if you only want to do all houses at night like I do. Express is way more important than Stay and Scream for me.

Well I was gonna upload a screen shot of poltergeist having a 180 min wait. But file size was too big.

On fb im seeing people talking about cutting the crowds.
Banning kids under 17?
Cancelling ffp
Charging employees
Opening every single night of the month

Conversation has been interesting
