This makes me a happy man. Having Potter open during the event is going to help tremendously with lines.The rides page on the HHN website has updated with both Harry Potter attractions.

I think Candyman might be another get out/ invisible man situation where creative doesn’t thing they can do the subject matter it tackles proper justice with a mazeAlso, I know it's a little early to speculate, but having seen the new one I really hope they somehow manage Candyman next year. Seems like they could pretty easily fit the original and the requel into 1 maze.
Rights wise it also seems negotiable, since the original was made by a studio whos assets are now owned by universal and it was distributed by a subsidiary of sony, who the even has worked with as recently as 2019 with ghostbusters, and the new one is MGM and Monkey Paw aside from universal, both of which they've worked with in the last few years. Obviously we've learned theres many more factors that go into rights negotiations and execution, but I think it's probably the best opportunity to do it next year assuming everyones willing to play ball.
I would agree if it wasnt right next to the scarezones and Bride. Tribute band music bleeding into other areas isnt exactly good for atmosphere.I think this is a smart move. I've always wanted to see more HHN-exclusive food like Orlando does.
Also if they were smart, they would have an open-air stage show for additional entertainment. Have some sort of generic freak show or tribute band. It'll get people to buy more drinks and keep them out of lines.
I doubt itll be a nightly thing if it happens at all, they might do what they did with Dark Arts in 2019 and just have it announced like the night before and only do it for like 2 nights.Going back to Harry Potter being open for a second... was it just me, or was there once talk of having Death Eaters? Any word on that?
Also, I love it when my tweets end up here. :grin:
That was a thing In 2018. Pretty sure I heard Legacy talk about it. They’ve actually gone as far as trying out costumes for scareactors, but it was cut last minute.Going back to Harry Potter being open for a second... was it just me, or was there once talk of having Death Eaters? Any word on that?

They were. Very nearly happened in 2019. Not this year, but maybe in the future.
How about Dark Arts? In 2019, the show aired; yes? With Orlando bringing back Nighttime Lights, I wonder if Hollywood may bring it in as an extra way (even without drones or pyro)
The show aired the final nights, I believe, without pyro/drones. I wouldn’t be shocked if they did it this year on peak nights, but if they did, it would again be projections only.
I really don’t think they have to worry much about TWDA’s queue. At the most, the extended queue would probably only require one zig zag that goes all the way up to SLoP and then back down to TWDA’s entrance. Everyone has done it at this point.That's my assumption too.
The good thing with Forbidden Journey, Hippogriff, and Dias De Los Muertos (even if it probably has partnership backing thanks to Modelo) all being alongside Jabbawockeez; is that it's finally going to pull more people to do more than just the mazes; something that IMO, has been long overdue.
Hoping management sees this successful; especially if Dark Arts plays during the more "Hell time" periods.
Also starting to get a good feel on how queue management will be done for TWDA and Bride, especially if the two share DMMM's overflow in some way or shape. Not a bad year to be honest; has the potential to have a better ebb and flow than before.
