    Halloween Horror Nights 29 General Discussion

    I kind of mentioned this in the Hellbilly Deluxe scarezone thread, but it really feels like there's a tension this year between the old HHN and the new. Or maybe that that tension's been there for a while, but it's kind of coming to a head. And bear in mind I'm not really advocating for...

    HHN 29: Rob Zombie Hellbilly Deluxe

    There's a weird tension this year, I think, between a harder/older school HHN sensibility (sexy dancing and booze and metal and grime and scares) and what HHN has slowly been turning into for years now (more neon, clean, IP-focused, PG-13 Halloween time spooky party which is also fun but...

    HHN 29: Vikings Undead

    I have zero basis to believe they'll do this, especially given how close we are to the event at this point, but I do think that little LED runes in the trees that slowly light up and fade at random would be a cool use of the enclosed space and the tradition of putting lights in those trees while...

    Any tips on how to maximize my experience?

    It really depends on your stay (or whether you're a local). If you're only able to do one night, rushing through all the houses with express is probably the way to do it - the houses are the main attraction, after all, and you only have a few hours to cram everything in. But if it's at all...
