Halloween Horror Nights XX: Twenty Years of Fear

[figment1986]

FYI: Looks like 10/17 might be a little crowded as UCF is selling tickets that night for like $35 to students, faculty, and alumni.

Thats the FL resident price anyways nothing special there, but it might be extra crowded if the whole school is going.

Also when did they change the Saturday closing time for the first 3 weekends to Midnight instead of 1 am? I thought Saturdays were always deemed a peak night and closed at 1? Thats one of the main reasons why I missed 2 houses, I was planning on a 1 am closure.

 

[Splatter]

Yeah. I don't get the midnight closings either. That was bogus.

 

[The_Bled]

It may be a bit unreasonable, but its the way its been since the beginning of Halloween Horror Nights, though. 2AM closings are starting soon to compensate for this.

Actually the first weekend is deemed 12AM closure...all other Fri/Sat nights are 2AM closures...I think the first 2 days having such short hours is due to lower attendance numbers, and for the benefit of us...well I like to think that it's because of us...we go from 2 sets at Employee Preview, 4-5 sets (depending on location) on the first 2 nights of the event...another 4-5 set night and then start into the 2 am closure....being thrust right into the 2 am closure would kill me LOL

 

[universal chris]

This Friday HHN is open to 2 am.

 

[Vyrus]

Well maybe next year I'll make it a point to go the second weekend, which is still light on crowds, I get my AP discount and I get a 2am closure.

Usually the 2nd weekend isn't so bad right?

 

[giant4203]

Yeah 2nd weekend usually isn't too crowded yet

 

[Vyrus]

Well now I know for next year :thumbs: Unless I audition and maybe I get ABU

From Universal:

Legendary Truth The Wyandot Estate - The Spirit Seekers have dared to enter The Wyandot Estate, a house rumored to be haunted since Malcolm Wyandot killed 13 dinner guests and his wife before committing suicide on October 30, 1929. The team is about to get more than they bargained for as the murdered hear their call and answer with terrible violence. And you could be next. For more new photos from HHN XX, go to the News section of http://www.HalloweenHorrorNights.com/orlando

Also, under the News section of the site, an image from both Catacombs and Hades have been posted.

So if you pay the FLA resident rate you get in at 2pm? Cause that's what the student ticket says. (Though FLA resident rate got you in at start of event, not earlier...)

I will definitely be there on the 14th with about 20 other people half of which is from Seattle and have never been to Universal ever let alone HHN. I get emails from family almost everyday asking about HHN and most of all the WWoHP.

The scareactors were really on their game last night! Ran me ragged again in Catacombs and Havoc, and Hades was excellent too. We did all houses twice except Orfanage (three times). That is the only one that still disappoints me although hubby was thrilled to get two Vault shout outs in there (he was wearing his old shirt). He was getting his butt whupped in all the houses...not sure why, but maybe because of the shirt. Zombigeddon was better, and we had all the timings just right on one of our Legendary Truth walk throughs. That chair is vicious! And of course we pressed the button in Psychoscreapy; that house is growing on me a tiny bit...but just a bit. Hallowed Past was light on scares last night although it's always worth it for the memorabilia. Saws and Steam is still my favorite scare zone, although Cindy and some stiltwalker thing both scared the piss out of me in the othe zones. Still not impressed with the Coven tho'. That's my quickie view! I'll be posting a more detailed one later.

 

[giant4203]

Who came to see me in Saws n Steam last night?

 

[atigeg]

I was in there a few times getting chasing down like a whimpering dog.

--- Update ---

Oh, forgot to mention the best thing I saw last night. Little boy about 6 years old with a long toy rifle stapped over this shoulder. I'm guessing idiot parents convinced him to come by telling him he could just "shoot the bad guys" if he got scared. The two things I wonder are: 1) Who let him in with it? Yes, it's a toy, but it was a long one that could be used to give a good smack. 2) How long was it before some poor scareactor got smacked with it?

 

[Splatter]

I don't know but I hope the actors in Havoc with their gun gave him heck for it.
