The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

Helix is made by Mack....

Well, shoot. I honestly thought it was Gerstlauer. Should have looked it up before piping up. I think that I was thinking of Karnan at Hansa Park. So, yeah, I would be quite happy with a Mack like Helix. ops:

I like how their cloak hooks are numbered.

Back in my day we had to guess, and sometimes we were wrong.

In the dark blue light mind you.

One time a cloak fell off the hook and got kicked down the hallway to the end by the door that no one knows where it goes. No one knew whose it was and we weren't sure of the color in the dark. So it stayed there for weeks, months maybe.

From RyanThemePark, he encountered a survey at USH's site that pretty much confirms that they are retrieving the Nighttime show.

But what's "Battleship"? Did they accidentally release this ahead of a big press release?

I don't think Battleship means anything, considering that "Battleship" was a bombed transformers ripoff from 2012.

Although, it does bring some potential fun to pick at it.

As always, expect a formal announcement at HPC for the Digital Mapping show at USH and UOR.

Outlier perhaps? Unless we don't know about a particular ride in the park

I'm really surprised this hasn't been mentioned on here yet...

[HASHTAG]#FollowTheSpiders[/HASHTAG] campaign teases Harry Potter fans - what is it?

I was freaking out last night because I saw this. Forbidden/Dark Forest ride??!

There is an announcement on Friday of something. Thinking it's the castle projection show though.

At first thats what I thought too (I even said it further up that I doubt it's a ride announcement), but "follow the spiders".. I mean come on, that HAS to be a dark forest ride. I'm now fully expecting a dark ride replacement for DC now.

Very little chance. Tamper the expectations and be pleasantly surprised otherwise

Could just be adding Aragog to FJ.

The article says that the WB studio tour was the first to tweet it. Would they advertise for a new ride or anything at Universal?

They were the first to tweet it, but the announcement is happening at Universal Orlando..

I'm just saying, would the WB Studio advertise a Uni Studios attraction? Doing a quick scan through their tweets, I don't see any Uni advertisements. I think this announcement is going to be for something more Pottermore or otherwise related and not for something at the parks.

I almost forgot! A while back there was some debate as to the appearance of certain merchandise, and the changes that may come to them in light of the Fantastic Beasts film imagery.
One of those things was a pink creature sold in WWW. Someone said it was a niffler and I wasn't sure that was true.
I asked on my last trip and was told it is a hopping pink elephant. So no change needed there.
Just new merch because seriously, bowtruckles and nifflers would fly off shelves.

After examine the instagram account for the teaser more closely, the bottom contains a piece of ripped paper which makes me believe it will be something more book/script related.. maybe the introduction of the Cursed Child show to Broadway? That's a big leap though.

I'm driving myself crazy and it's still 4 days away.
