    What does Jurassic Park need?

    I've thought for a long time now that the perfect attraction for the area would be very similar to the old Alien Encounter attraction at Magic Kingdom. Just change from an alien on the loose to 2 or 3 velociraptors, and you're basically done. Not only would the attraction itself fit the space...

    Halloween Horror Nights 22 Discussion

    I'm all for a house that is crazier than the rest, but something tells me I'd leave furious. I follow the event from the second it updates in June/July all the way through the events completion. I'm not the type of person that would be ok turning down a top house. However, I'm also a college...

    Favorite Scarezone

    I know everyone's talking about how great the house lineup was this year, but really I think its the streets that were most impressive this year. Canyon of the Dark Souls was terrifying and insane for most of the year, because the actors blended into the walls so well. The fog made it impossible...

    Favorite House

    Houses were very well rounded this year. All were solid, but all also lacked that extra "Wow" factor for me. Not to say I didn't really enjoy quite a few of them, but I don't think any are quite as good as some of my all-time favorites. Initial hopes and dreams: I was frothing at the mouth to...

    Bill and Ted’s Excellent Halloween Adventure

    I honestly don't know what to say. In 2006, I saw the B&T show for the first time, and thought it was fantastic. I laughed constantly, and it was the perfect way to the end the night. In 2007, I went back all pumped, and was severely let down. I never actually attended the show in 2008, but my...

    Nightingales: Blood Prey

    I really loved this house the first time I went through, but inconsistency seems to be a real problem here. I always feel like it's understaffed (i see a lot of boo holes and actor spaces going uninhabited) and as a result it's really hit or miss as far as scares are concerned. Actor energy is...

    Nevermore: The Madness of Poe

    This is one of the most beautiful houses I've ever seen. Every scene seems just so well done. However, I don't know if it was just bad timing, but I just didn't get a lot of scares in here. Like Scarletwebslingr said, the Raven room is a great example. I mean, why are ALL THREE ravens real? It...

    Halloween Horror Nights 21 Reviews & Photos

    Will post a full review soon. Can't wait to make it back and see how everything progresses. I loved the detail in the houses; I'd love to see them when the actors are fully on their game. I noticed a lot of timing issues as far as scares are concerned, but things like that always get better as...

    Halloween Horror Nights 21: Your Luck Has Run Out

    Wow. If that's in the disaster queue -- which seems like the only option -- then the overall quality really will be jacked up this year. Looks significantly better than the sets I'm accustomed to seeing there.

    The In-Between

    Indeed. They mentioned lasers quite a bit, and also said the 3D was very much above and beyond anything they'd used in 3D houses before. There's also supposed to be a room here that will go down as once of those "classic" scenes. All good to hear about a house I originally wasn't too excited...

    HHN XXI: Most Anticipated Scarezone

    Unless I'm mistaken, Nightmaze is supposed to be in the shrek alleyway where The Coven was last year.

    HHN XXI: Most Anticipated House

    I don't see enough in common to think "The Fog" ripoff, if that's what you're saying. Even if I did, I'm not sure how that would make The Forsaken unoriginal. We're talking about houses here, not movies. When I say something's original, I don't necessarily mean that the concept of a sunken...

    HHN XXI: Most Anticipated House

    Is that a Howl o Scream house that I don't know about?

    Winter’s Night: The Haunting of Hawthorn Cemetery

    Does anyone think this might be reminiscent of the Legendary Truth house? I mean, this certainly seems like a traditional "ghost" house, very much like the Wyandot Estate...

    Halloween Horror Nights 21: Your Luck Has Run Out

    True. And I suppose we don't know if there's more to her backstory that could place her in any of these houses. I also think Nightingales is an unlikely place for her to arise because we've seen pictures of the creatures, and they look very, very different from the "monster" side of Lady Luck. I...

    Halloween Horror Nights 21: Your Luck Has Run Out

    Icons need to be easily recognizable. A big part of that is the design of their attire. Could you picture the Caretaker in a white surgeon's outfit? How about Jack in street clothes without makeup on? If the icon doesn't look like the icon, it loses its purpose. That's why Lady Luck won't go...

    Even if it's the same time period and lady luck has the ability to change forms, I'd be very surprised to see her in the trenches...

    HHN XXI: Most Anticipated House

    Interesting to see so many people saying "meh, pirates" to The Forsaken. But columbus =/= Pirates. The Rundown.... 1. Nightingales: Blood Prey -- This house seems like it's setting itself up to be the first classic franchise of the new era. A completely new, rich environment and a twisted...

    Halloween Horror Nights 21: Your Luck Has Run Out

    You know, for all icon houses are touted as a staple of the event, Universal's been moving away from center-of-the-event type icon houses for a while now. Look -- In 2005, you have the storyteller, who only appears in the marketing aside from a brief cameo appearance in a mediocre house (or...

    Halloween Horror Nights 21: Your Luck Has Run Out

    My guess is that she'd be in almost every house in the same way Bloody Mary was in every house. Small references and such. But I don't think you'll see an actor actually playing her there.
