    Ohhhh boy..can't wait to see the influencers carry water with that one.

    Most consecutive loops around TeAwa the Fearless River?

    Think I did 4 laps on my last trip. The Fearless River is a highlight of the park IMO, especially if you have a group and happen to be in the danger zone of the wave machine. I’ve seen and been on the receiving end on some hilarious wave beatdowns.

    Cedar Point

    Rides that don’t have a complete circuit always sketch me out, but I think that’s just because I launched one too many trains off the track in the old Rollercoaster Tycoon days…

    WGA & SAG Strike of 2023

    Cool, now put Dune 2 back into its original release date!

    Nightmare Fuel Revenge Dream (HHN 32)

    That was awesome. You can't fake that kind of passion from the crowd and performers. Nightmare Fuel has cemented itself as a major piece of HHN history. There's really no wrong move for what they do in 2024, in my opinion. It's the perfect high note of a trilogy to ride off into the sunset on...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - Tips, Tricks, & Planning

    I didn't use NY S&S this year, but in the past, there have been food stands open in the holding area. If you want to get through all 10, I would just get into S&S immediately once you scan in your Scream Early ticket. Be one of the first to get through Stranger Things. Try to knock out...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - News & Info

    Do any of the soundstages typically go unused this time of year? Set up some (mildly) themed meet-and-greet areas in part of a soundstage. Take your three big IPs for the year (plus maybe 1-2 random characters like the Yeti or Oddfellow). It's not something people will feel that they have to...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - News & Info

    I always fall multiple pages behind this so I can't even bother finding all the proper posts to quote, but anyway.. HHN to its credit creates a totally unique event year after year. New houses, shows, zones, foods, drinks, tribute stores, etc. This is great for drawing in return customers (and...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - News & Info

    Let's again keep in perspective that we're all the outliers of the group. "The event can't be done in one night" means something very different to us than it does to the vast majority of the guests. If they get through a handful of houses, grab a drink, snack, and take a couple of photos, then...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - Reviews, Photos, & Videos

    Quick weekend trip has come and gone. This was the first time I bit the bullet on express, and my entire group agreed that we will never do standby again. It’s a total game changer. Perhaps the biggest fault is that the express lines move so quick that we had to chug our drinks. House Ranks 1...

    Nightmare Fuel Revenge Dream (HHN 32)

    I’ll put up a full event review later, but this show deserves another shoutout. Absolutely incredible environment. You can feel the passion from everyone involved. Performers giving it 100%, and the traffic flow TMs were having a blast dancing during the pre-show music. Nothing quite like it at...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - News & Info

    Adding capacity (additional shows, 11th house, etc) is like adding an extra lane to the highway. It doesn’t really solve the problem, and actually encourages more crowds (or repeat visits for what were formerly one-night visitors).

    Who is my third point even offending? Straight BDSM enthusiasts?

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - News & Info

    I can't think of anything that will come close to the (unwarranted) hate that Billie's (never announced) house received. There was a whole lot of misogynistic anger in the spec pages that year...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - Tips, Tricks, & Planning

    Gearing up for this year's trip, but need some drinking questions answered... 1. What time does Dead Coconut Club (or whatever it's called this year) open? 2. Best drink(s) to get there? 3. Planning on hitting Strongwater Tavern and Pat O'Briens for a Hurricane. Any other key spot to hit for a...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - Tips, Tricks, & Planning

    These S&S pens need portable misters and options for shade, especially with how early it seems like guests are lining up this year. Please, take my advice and HYDRATE before and during S&S. Water/Gatorade/etc. count. Soda/Beer/Energy Drinks do not. There are too many guests who pass out from...

    Nightmare Fuel Revenge Dream (HHN 32)

    Not to start an all out war, but I think this show gets hate on here a lot due to the demographics of this forum. The show is certainly accessible to, but not designed for an over-30 male audience. I think the primary reach(es) of the show is/are: 1. Horny guests 2. 18-30 y/o 3. LGBTQIA+...

    Nightmare Fuel Revenge Dream (HHN 32)

    With only one full night to attend, I caved and decided to check out the full show online to see if it was something I needed to see this year, should I be running low on time. You'll catch me sitting front row at this show for sure. Awesome job balancing the hits with lots of new twists.
