Halloween Horror Nights 2013

Hmmm.... now that I think about it.... With the one house entrance being between the store and dispicable me, How will that impact that "front" S&S pen that was there last year as an overflow? or how will that house fit into the rotation?

Maybe it might help slow the mass of front-gate guests getting to the other houses at 6:30? and for S&S we just save it for last?

I don't know if the map is really a good indication of where the houses will be. I mean...in years past the map has been a little off with the locations. There will be two house entrances near the side street by Twister but I don't think there will be a house up near the front of the park.

Nope. It is part of the props/scenery that will be used for the American Werewolf in London house.

Cheers!

Correct...it's part of the interior of AWIL house.

If you zoom in, it mentions the house entrance location and stage it's based in.

Evil Dead is in SS24, With the entrance in front of the NYC Public Library facade. (The end of NY Street)

An American Werewolf is in SS22, With the entrance "next to music plaza courtyard stage at Twister"

Resident Evil is in SS21B, with the Entrance "music plaza Courtyard stage near Rockit"

And then Cabin in the Woods is in SS21A, with the Entrance "Between Despicable Me Minion Mayhem and the Universal Studios Store"


It's been awhile since I've paid much attention, but Im' trying to remember... Isn't there room for a path between the BMG soundstage and the Rockit station? I could very easily see them routing the line out the side entrance there and beside the Aquos theater to get to the soundstages.

The slaughtered lamb is where the two American travelers are warned to stay off the moors. I can't wait.

God that sounds like a tight fit! I wonder where all the houses will exit? The area by the courtyard and Twister is usually congested cause that's where 2 of the soundstages exited, so wonder of they're moving them this year? Isn't this the first year they've had 4 soundstage houses like this?

There's always a first time for everything.

Just saw the walkthrough for TWD from the Media preview. Looks like it's an improvement from last year's house.

I just saw it too. it looks amazing and scary. i was so bummed with the final scene of last year maze. it was pretty empty when i went through it. i was hoping that a lot of scare actors jumped at me from behind the long and twisted wood fences. The new maze takes on season 3 of the series thus the prison and Woodbury. I can't wait to go through it. I am hoping the final scene is better this year. I also saw clips for AWIL, AL: DR, UL: LL, H2D. They all look amazing. I think AL: DR will be the 3D house this year because of the bright colors.

Is there anyone else in here sign up for the passholder's event on opening night? I would love to meet up with you.

Sorry...I'm heading to the main holding area opening night. Maybe Saturday night but I haven't decided yet. You are welcome to come to the main holding area by Finnegan's if you'd like. We have a small group meeting.

The passholder's event starts at 5 pm and ends at 6:30 pm. The check in starts at 4 pm near the main entrance or the kids zone. Is it still possible to do a meet up?

I know about the S&S area and that most people will be hanging out getting their early drink on in Finnegan's. Will any other food places like Chez Alcatraz be open during the S&S period?

Hmmm...probably not Friday night. I'll already be in the park at Louie's with friends until the holding area is opened.

Are you doing any other nights and did you post on Macraven's thread about HHN dates? If not, you should so you can see who else is supposed to be there and on what night.

So that's a no?

Yeah I agree with you about last year..sort of a let down especially at the end. Im really looking forward to AWIL.

I 'felt' for the scareactors in that area last year went thru several times and they were basically standing there milling around...not to be confused with zombies.think it was combination of poor house design and lack of training/seasoning. Universal is smart enough not to make the same mistake twice.

Which Resident Evil movie do you most recommend to watch in prep for the trip? I think the mazes are supposed to based off the games (which I played some of the first ones), but we are trying to decide on something to watch tomorrow for Friday the 13th.

I will be there on opening night. I have a reservation for the passholder's event that night. They are going to take us through 3 houses before the park opens for the event. Once the park opens, I am planning to tackle the other 5 houses, street experience and shows.
