30 Years & Counting HHN 2021, XXX Let’s Stick This One!

[Raeven]

So gang…

any semi-reliable new rumors or guesstimates on when/if APH discounts or FF sort of multi day tix may be released?

several of the sites indicated mid July.

Bought our sea world ones, 3 people for $105 out the door lol. Would be nice to finish the tix buying For the trip.

Last week I’d seen a couple times people saying they knew people that worked there and they were loaded in the system to be onsale in the next 2 weeks. Supposedly, they were coming last Thursday, but the server issue that affected a lot of companies postponed the announcement. I haven’t seen anything as concrete since but people were still saying it’s coming in the next 2 weeks. I also saw someone post somewhere else that they’d heard Aug 5th. (Although I’m really hoping it’s this week & I don’t know if that’s a reliable source).

Re the anticipated tooth fairy house...

curious to see U’s take on it. Knotts in the past offered a delightfully gory, in your face experience

walk thru jik anyone interested

Does Universal have a reservation system or can I simply purchase my tickets online? Do I need to get to the park by a certain time in order to get in?

 

[macraven]

You can. Buy the tickets on line in advance

No reservation system, and you will get in if you have a HHN ticket. However, if you aren’t doing Stay And Scream (allowed to stay in the park at regular closing time by possessing both a day ticket and a HHN ticket)), try to line up at the park gate as soon as you can so that you’re one of the first to be let in. The gate lines will become very long right before the gates open for HHN.

Express pass prices went up again on my dates. I’m glad I already purchased what I needed, even if it was after the first increase.

Halloween
Horror
Nights

since you are new to the haunt, suggest heading to first page here & reading the sticky posts as a mini primer.

There’s a lot to process, many helpful souls here, fire away

It is a separate ticket paid event
Studios closes at 5:00 on select nights

 

[tony67]

still no multi night tickets.

How do they expect folks to plan? This makes a big difference on whether I do 10 nights or 5.
Hotels and flights have to be booked - its getting a bit much IMO

Yeah Im pretty sure its coming - but still its ridiculous to leave us hanging

 

[macraven]

I received info my previous ticket purchase last year will be valid for this hhn year

it could be only those prior passes will be honored ?

Or depending on current pre sales, different ticket package will be presented
It’s still July and info will be released some time in august

Hello all! I have been lurking for the last month or so and have already learned a lot.

The good news... we are finally attending HHN this year (for the first time) after wanting to attend for the last ~8 years.

The bad news... we are going on October 9th. I am sure, with this being a Saturday, this will be one of the busiest nights of the season. We did get Express Passes though. Just stating this info because it might help with a few of my questions below.

We HAVE been to other Halloween events before, just not at Universal. We realize things still might be a little "different" this year given the situation. However... a few questions based on past info / experiences.

1.) Best way to "attack" the event with planning? Ordering of houses? We do have the Express Passes...

2.) Any "must do" things that we wouldn't really think of other than the houses, shows, and zones?

3.) Any food / drink recommendations?

4.) Any other tips / ideas?

5.) Any thoughts on what the hours will be like? As far as closing?

I realize all of the event information isn't out yet... but this thing should be getting kicked off around 5 weeks from now. So I am guessing we will be getting some more information very soon.
