Wishful thinking okay?!:grin:bless your heart
This. People are looking way too hard at these videos that are just being used for promotion. Knowing how protective Universal is this year with their IPs, I doubt they would even give us a crumble of a teaser.I don’t think “welcome to my new playground” means anything other then being for their new TikTok page.
And with how protective they're being this year with IP.. hopefully that means there's some major stuff in store.This.

fwiw, Hollywood sold frequent fear passes last year. I remember the Before Times when this was not the case, but Hollywood has been in on this for the better part of 10 years now.In Hollywood the multi night passes have not been a thing for some time.
Hey, sorry for newbie question here but just want to get an opinion!
As a bit of background I went to HHN for the first time on my first trip to Orlando (from the UK) in October 2018, absolutely loved it even though I did it on my own (my Wife has no interest and we have a young daughter). We have been back to Orlando twice since in 2021 and 2022, lots of trips cancelled during Covid too, but we have been going at Easter or early August due to school, so HHN was never a consideration for me in these trips. We are going back this year on August 19th for two weeks. I noticed when the dates came out that amazingly I could actually go to opening night, as we fly home the day after. This has seriously excited me as I had not planned for this being possible at all, it never even occurred to me. I booked a ticket instantly without even thinking about it yesterday evening.
However, I woke up today concerned about how busy it might be on an opening night. I will be on my own again so would be moving house to house as quickly as I can - stopping just for pizza fries - but is it even possible to do it all in one night on the opening day? I managed it last time but that was a random weeknight in mid October. Any advice appreciated!
Opening night will be busy. As it’s opening night it’s also media night so all the bloggers will be there filming for their video. Th at means them taking their time in the houses to try to get all the scares. I’ve seen videos of them stopping at a boo hole to try and get the scare.Hey, sorry for newbie question here but just want to get an opinion!

At this point I don't even read into the marketing slogans/teasers lolIs the Japanese Creatures idea out the window? Because "The legend is real" teaser------might be a stretch------ kind of resembles The Ring trailer, and since the ghost in that movie is an Onryo... hmmm

It’s also highly likely to rain. It’s the curse of opening night It always rains and rains bad. The back houses in the ST usually flood and close for a while. They open back up later but it’s always a good idea to hit those houses as soon as possible.
But with all that it’s still possible to do everything that night. Probably have to skip the shows like Conner said. I also suggest doing stay and scream.
In addition, the houses haven't "gelled" yet. Actors haven't figured out what works. Inevitably every house improves, and one of the top two or three was dismissed opening weekend as a stinker. Opening weekend is a fun time to see old friends and for everyone to join in the Orlando "FIRST" movement, but it's far from the best way to experience the event.
Very true. Opening weekend is a mess. That’s why as a local I like to go both opening weekend and closing weekend and see how the event changed.Also a lot of corporate VIP tours. I've stood in Express and waited for two or three tours in a row go in on opening night.

As others have said, I wouldn't look into the teaser that much. While there's a possibility the teaser is hinting towards another overarching theme like last year, the overarching theme wouldn't be dropping hints at any of the houses. Last year the overarching theme of the Holiday of Halloween was more found in the merch and scare zones.Is the Japanese Creatures idea out the window?

Thread 'Forums Upgrade'Did I fat finger a settings change or has the forum format been revised?
Or am I just getting old? Looks very different to me…
