Halloween Horror Nights 22 Discussion

They won't have a choice if the event continues to grow in popularity.

Unless they plan on actually enforcing a decent capacity limit (ha, yeah right).

Yea. With the crowds, more houses will be basically guaranteed.

 

[Octobers Fade]

I think if the crowds are getting bigger it's because of the FFPs and until they are turning away a lot of people I don't think they will spend anymore money. Once they make it so people have to go more than one night to take it all in it (IMO) will hurt attendence.

TJ has said over the last couple yrs 8 is enough.. The only way they will go up is if we have an extreme house.

I'm happy with 8 houses as well.. We really dont need to turn into Knott's.., Just saying.

I have seen no difference in crowd levels the past 5 years I have been going. At Sweet 16 I waited an average of 60 minutes a house, including soundstages and that was opening weekend- those lines were crazy. In fact I have noticed kind of the exact opposite thing this past year, it seemed to me like there were far less crowds the five times I went.

^ I think we can thank the flash light nazis within the houses for this. They make you run through the houses for crying out loud. But on a positive note there was not as much this year as there was previous years.

 

[Octobers Fade]

You also have to take innto account the amount of days that have been added to the schedule.

 

[tiredoldspook]

Hatetofly I agree we did see less of the flashlight nazis. 8 house is a big number as there are a number of people who go one night and never see them all. Also I have noticed smaller amounts on the night I go (opening Thursday) the last couple of years. I think the huge crowds, the annoying people (drunks packs of teenagers) and the cost have slowly started to bring the number to a cap.

Really interested to see how they manage having three houses packed into the back areas behind Simpsons...
Also I hope they don't tear down the Fear Factor Live stadium.. it is perfect for Bill and Ted!
And Bill and Ted CANT leave HHN.

There's actually a lot of empty land back there, so they have sprung up two tents and the third house is located in another building that is also back there:

 

[Hatetofly]

That area is so large its got water park written all over it :shrug:

Could be. Also, the land south of Uni is definitely large enough for a water park, if not even a water park + resort.

Those are apartments/offices now.

The next person that points out that empty plot of land behind Fear Factor and MIB is going to pay...it's for apartments for the last time

 

[Felipe]

We were talking about the land behind Simpsons. That square of land east of MiB, where the sprung tents and (old?) parade building are.

Wow glad to see someone is paying attention!

 

[tiredoldspook]

We will see Twin Icons next year.

 

[Octobers Fade]

It's OK you can say this year now

 

[Felipe]

We will see Twin Icons next year.

That'd be cool, though I really liked the idea of the four icons: the four horsemen. It might be a bit cliché, but if there was a time to do it, it's this year!

 

[JungleSkip]

We will see Twin Icons next year.

AKA One for each park.

Ah! Good point! I didn't even think about it that way!
