Halloween Horror Nights 2022 (USH) - Tips & Tricks

[Jerroddragon]

Hey guys just wanted to share some tips based on what I experienced on TM preview night,
start with The Weeknd of you have any interest in seeing the house because that quickly shot up to 60 min whereas most others never went past 30 min, the queue for The Weeknd was so full it went into the main walkway and went into the adjacent seating area. The Weeknd was by far my fav house it was visually stunning and even had a decent jump scare imo.

After that id suggest Klowns as it is next to Weeknd and then Legends so the LL will be taken care of. The Weeknd's bar also have a VERY lengthy line all the way down the staircase so be aware of that if that is something you'd like to try. Back on the upper lot it, TT was cool I loved walking through Jupiter's Claim they even added some props for the HHN experience which was nice. I believe it is best based on wait times if you did TT, then the CG lot houses, Deatheaters, then La Llorna and HH, finishing off w/ Blumhouse

How long did you wait for the Weekend going early?

We went straight there first and they did not open the house until 7:12 so including the wait for that I'd say 30-40 min

Dam, thats what I was expecting.

I might skip that maze then when I go with a general pass, feel like I can get on more mazes just by going on Clowns and then Monsters. Unless something is different those kinda mazes only have a 10ish or less mins wait when they open

Yeah I went on Klowns right after Weeknd and it said 15 min but it was a walk on

It’s pretty chill right now. I’d say it’s a little less than 100 people at the gate right now.

Are you still able to enter the park if you have a day ticket/pass?

Also, when does the event end tonight? Can't find it online...

I never used Day/Night combo as I’ve always been an AP holder, but I would ask. I see then letting people in on the left side.

Don’t know unfortunately but I would put money on 1AM

EDIT: Just heard the announcer say that Day/Nught can enter the left hand side so yeah if you have Day Night you’re good to go!

It's gotta be brutally hot out there.

At least where I’m at we got lucky and a tropical storm has brought in clouds making it hot but nothing like the last few days

Are they just letting you in or also letting you line up for mazes?

Im in line for The Weeknd right now. Don’t see anyone lined up for Klowns or Monsters.

Thanks

Watching a live stream right now...and literally these two streamers just cut basically that entire line to meet up with their group, easily saved them a 30 min wait.

The line is about what I waited in for Stranger things a few years back.

Also 6:30ish Pm and Killer Clowns and Weekend already at 90 mins. Monsters/Blumhouse only at 30

Tram' La Llorona opening at 6:45 then the rest at 7:00pm

Jurassic and Mummy are the only rides open now (both are walk ons). Rest open at 6:45

Keep in mind there is no early entry for early preview for 7:12 will not be the opening time for the regular event.

Weekend had a 60 then 90 min wait. When it opened, It just seems to be a busy maze and also many people use the Front of the line pass for that maze backing the line up because its the only maze open

 

[Freak]

Looks like @DTH has the winning gamplan. Did Weeknd and Monsters and doing both took a little over an hour. Klowns has the longest wait for some odd reason so I’m gonna skip it and come back to it later in the night in hopes the line will die down. Hitting up Halloween then Scarecrow.

 

[Jerroddragon]

Watching the times tonight

Must be because its opening night because mazes times are weird

Most mazes now are under 45 mins and its not even that late, most seem like walk ons. Also didn't see any rides go over 25 mins

If this is the normal trend this season then cool, I'll get on the tram more then once when I go and a few mazes like the hotel a few times
