I mean it also kind of just jives with the general art deco vibe of the area and color scheme, so I'm not mad about it (especially if given the choice between themed covers and nothing, I'll take themeing all day)

Orlando making decent facades for Food Stands is so cool; and I though adding a simple unique signage last year was neat…
Oh, no doubt about it. But I appreciate they're going there since it's very fitting with TCM being nearby. Speaking of which, it's honestly a neat touch that the themed food tents are next to the house entrances of their respective IP's. An while I have no idea if this was planned from the beginning or another little addition that was added with the extra year, it's yet another touch which is making this year all the more special.
I hope they serve chili, I hear they have a really good cook.

For anyone who has attended then event pre 2010, what is so special about Treaks and Foons? I know they were a part of the anniversary house at XX and it seemed very misplaced among the more serious toned rooms. I keep seeing them referenced and brought back multiple times, and I just don't understand why; unless they are a fan favorite which would explain why.
The entire zone was literally filled up with bubbles as if you were in a bubble bath. If you google it you can see how interesting it was.
Because it was so odd and out-of-place even at the original event -- yet they kind of worked. Closest recent comparison I can think of is HHNBear. Sometimes the fandom just latches on to something odd, and it becomes a meme.

Well ok that makes sense then. I missed them when they first were at the event, but saw them at HHN 20, and was confused.
Um...they are going above and beyond with these food tents and I'm way too excited about them
This event is already a winner and it hasn't even started
Also as a humanitarian I appreciate being able to have some cannibal options at Universal finally

Treaks and Foons were one of the first legitimately “fun scary” zones. In a way, it was ahead of its time as the vibe fits far more with the “block party” atmosphere of a lot of modern zones than the pure “edgy scary” of the aughts.
Add in that it has great, original costumes and the recurrence is obvious.

I remember the foam machines
When I say Toon Lagoon was absolutely covered in foam..I really mean it
As a little kid the foam was way taller than me...add in that the Treaks and Foons would come out of nowhere
I'm not sure if it's my favorite zone of all time, but gosh it's close
All that being said, they could never do that again haha
They’re going super hard on themeing just about everything. Super commendable.
I hope this returns for the next years, it definitely adds some seasonal flair to usually dead areas
It was, I was also a fetus, so everything seemed 100 feet tall
HHN is much more than it was back then and you're experiencing the best days right now (send Tweet)...
but gosh, the all out 'lawsuit waiting to happen' days were a blast while they lasted
If they don't have pumpkin mini donuts again in that Wicked Growth food tent I am going to riot.
Definitely looks like a earthquake hit the theater, especially with the leaning/downed poles, and I'm digging the simple yet awesome approach to the entry tunnel for Wicked Growth.
As for HoHH, the mural is about what I expected for the outside of the warehouse. I don't mind since we definitely know there's quite a façade waiting inside!
