halloween horror nights for next year (2014)

[patrickpiteo]

Best counter service in the Studios is Louie's for pizza, only place we will eat counter service in that park apart from Simpsons area which is very nice. Boulangerie as you enter the park is good too.

In IOA Thunder Falls Terrace near Jurassic Park is above and beyond most other places.......Blondies is nice too for fresh sandwiches.

Consider Confisco Grille. Although a table service restaurant food is excellent and cheap too. Mythos is another to consider.

Here's a vote for the Simpsons area.. umm the big donut..

Thanks for the suggestions...I have been to Mythos and loved it in the past

Question about online purchase of FF+EP. Online it says advance price is 194.99. Would the price be different if purchased at the park?

you must be eating at the same places i do.
my list is identical to yours.

I think someone asked a similar question earlier in the thread, but how do wheelchairs work at HHN? Or the guest assistance pass?

We're taking my mom next month, and she can walk through the houses just fine, but has a bad knee, and can't really walk/stand on it all night. Is there essentially stroller parking where we can leave it while we're in line?

 

[macraven]

you can use wheel chairs in the lines for the houses.
w/c can also be used in the houses.

i used one during HHN one year.

We have good taste

How likely is it that the Rush of Fear with express advance purchase will sell out.? We are wanting to purchase them but need to wait a bit more to make sure a couple in our party are going to be able to go.

Unmasking the Horror tours are fantastic.
if you are completely and totally addicted to HHN like i am, those 2 tours will compliment your evenings there.

like Marco stated, it will reveal to you things that you won't be able to catch when you are doing the tours at night.

you will be allowed to take pictures inside the houses, you will great info from your tour guide in the hours you are with the TM.


over the past years, there is the morning tour (10:30) and the afternoon tour.
last year it bumped up to 10:30 from 11:00.

each tour will cover 3 houses.

the info on the tours are really late this year.
they have been listed in detail on the website early in the season.

just keep checking the site or come back and check here to find out when booking them will be open.

i'm sure one of us will post here when we find out so it will help others.

i did the first unmasking the horror house many years ago, it was the first year they started them.
only saw it advertised while i was in the parks and paid the $5 to go thru it.
i was hooked from the start.

Do you have to have park tickets for this tour?

Do you have to have park tickets for this tour?

the UTH tour is held at the studios
correcting my previous comment to say, you can check in at the gate for the tour so no ticket required for the park.

the HHN houses are located there in the studios.
the special tour is going inside 3 of the houses in the daytime.


the UTH is a tour event that you sign up for and pay in advance.
tour groups are kept at 15.

there are 2 UTH tours.
one morning, the other afternoon.

 

[dani77]

the UTH tour is held at the studios so you only need a one day park ticket. can't enter the park without a ticket.

Nope, not quite right. Check-in for the Unmasking the Horror Tours is outside the gate. After the tour they will escort you out of the park. Admission is NOT needed for these 2 tours.

i just don't know.
i have bought ROF passes in the past when my dates were in that time frame.
when they changed opening week by moving it up to include 2 weekends of sept, ROF wasn't the pass for me anymore.
there was a time that the columbus day weekend was included in the ROF dates.


i have not had any friends or seen posts that the ROF sold out.
the ROF with Express, may have sold out a few times for specific dates.
saturdays are usually crowded.


i do not think HHN tickets are going to sell out since the event is held in the studios.

UO wants to get as many people inside the park so more money is spent.
beer, food, merch, special HHN merch, etc........

IOA has held the event very few years.
the one time the entire hhn event was held there, it did sell out on a saturday night that i was there.
they eventually reopened the ticket sales that night and over sold tickets.

there was a hugh crowd over 100 peeps waiting to buy tickets that date and refused to leave until higher ups decided to allow over the selling .

IOA just didn't have the room for large HHN crowds.
way too many peeps there that saturday to my liking.



i do know that express tickets can sell out for some dates of HHN.

Awesome, I'll be calling to book if that is the case!

Thanks!

you're right, my error.
i just pulled up my reservation and see the change of set up.
last year, everyone in the 2 groups i was in, had ap's.
no mention of an escort out of the park.

i'll correct my error.

 

[dpuck1998]

Is it worth the 40 extra bucks to do both? Or once you do one seeing the other 3 houses is a lot of the same? We can go on our date for 59.99 or 99.99 for both tours.

 

[PDJPrinceCharming]

If you have the money I say go on both. 3 different mazes each time. Halloween, Dollhouse & FDTD in the morning. AVP, Roanoke & TWD in the afternoon. You'll learn a lot, be able to take prime pictures inside each maze & you'll enjoy yourself more when you go through those mazes the next time during the event.

Does anyone want to go with me to Team Member preview on the 17th? I can bring one guest to the preview event. Your admission ticket is free, and you get discount on food and drink. You will also be the first to see and experience the event before it opens to general public. The catch is not all of the effects may work during the preview event since it is a dress rehearsal.

Only 11 days until opening night! What are you guys doing to pass the time?

I'm supposed to be doing this thing called "work", but it's getting so difficult.

Anyone watching the From Dusk till Dawn series? It's on Netflix now! I would like to watch Halloween again, but it's already on our Horror-a-Thon list for next month.
