Halloween Horror Nights 29 General Discussion

[Robert Bliss]

On MSNBC Bill Karins compared storm hunters flying through the eye of the hurricane to going to a "Halloween Horror Nights type thing". Synergy?

More of a "look what these morons will do in a storm" type comment than advertising. I'm sure of it.

Meanwhile we have a Zombieland Double Tap scarezone

I could be wrong, but could this be the Microsoft event they usually do?

Nah. Ignite isn't until November this year. November 4–8, 2019.

I did a search when we first noticed this, only OCCC convention in town is some sort of optometrist gathering with a few thousand attendees. And again, it's placement at the start of Hell Week seems too coincidental. But even if there was a plan for a premium night that was scrapped, the scare-actors would all be contracted to work--I'd have think they would've added the night back in by now. All I can think is it's still being debated, perhaps waiting to see the numbers/lines when once the event actually gets going this year.

It's definitely a corporate event of some kind or they would have HHN that night. Although normally on those corporate events, the major houses (Stranger Things, Ghostbusters, etc) will still work as a part of said buyout.

 

[Brian G.]

Obviously this is what matters least right now but most of the props have been left out. All banners, flags, and fabrics have either been removed or wrapped & tied. The pop-ups have been taken down as well. Unless the storm starts coming more west and doing some major damage, I'd wager a very busy Thursday night with little impact to HHN this weekend.

Will preview night be canceled?

Will preview night be canceled?

They haven't even made any official announcement about tomorrow.

 

[Vyrus]

Honestly speaking, I'm sure there were a few cancellations from people who were a little scared about flying down cause of the hurricane.

Down here in Miami we've had a few squalls pass through, a couple gusts up into the 30s, but overall its typical Florida weather, 15 mins rain, 15 mins sun!

Either way, I'm kinda hoping the storm scared some people off since I'll be there on Saturday, did early entry and express. Gonna definitely try and do GB at least twice through

TM preview still going on as scheduled? I am assuming that it is since there hasn't been a cancellation announcement.

It’s possible either way since Universal’s been staying put on this whole situation as is the storm in Bahamas but we’ll just see how the storm moves for now.

Not canceled yet, but too early to say for sure. Universal wouldn’t cancel until tomorrow likely.

 

[Kichkinet85]

I plan on going to Universal tomorrow for the early opining for UOAP to the HHN Tribute Store. Hopefully Dorian stays away and it’s nice!

Time for me to watch hurricane trackers for the next 25 days before I leave.

As is tradition.

The most nerve-wracking part of the HHN planning process.

 

[Lucky Planet]

I really hope it didnt rain on the weekend. Going to HHN with rain really really sucks. Specially with the flu thats going around.

 

[Brian G.]

With the hurricane pulling away, it should pull any moisture around us. May have a random shower cuz Florida, but we should be good this weekend.

 

[TheCodeMan95]

Indeed.

I'm watching EVERY depression that is currently in the Atlantic. I do this every year. I freak out and stress every year.

And EVERY year.. I go to HHN with no issues.
