Is this plan ok?

My family will be at UO week of 9/27. We're staying offsite and using the Buy 2/Get 2 ticket offer, no Express passes, no HHN. We will rope drop and stay until close everyday (not a problem for us, since they close on the early side). I looked at the hours for both US and IOA that week. I used to look at crowd calendars but I'm not sure those really matter as much anymore, given all the changes at theme parks in the last 2 years. Here is my plan, chosen by park hours to maximize park time and working around HHN since we're not attending:

Mon - US 8-6
Tues - US 8-6
Wed - off day, pool day
Thur - IOA 9-8 (HHN night)
Frid - IOA 9-8 (HHN night)

Is this plan ok? Will IOA be busy on Thursday and Friday since US closes at 5:00 for HHN?

Thanks!

Tues is not an HHN night.

Oops, you're right. I was accidentally looking at the October dates - I will edit my post. I'm still wondering about Thursday and Friday though. We've never been to UO as a family. The last time I visited was over 20 years ago.

Check your dinner plans. Citywalk restaurants will be busy at park close.

Just curious, why aren't you going to HHN? We're going to be on a Disney trip and we decided to do Boo Bash just to take in the uniqueness. Were I going to Universal on that trip I think I would want to go to HHN one night even though it doesn't really sound like my cup of tea.

That is exactly why I posted here! I didn't even think about that aspect. Thank you for the tip, I will look into it.

I would absolutely LOVE to go to HHN but I'm the only one in my family who loves anything horror-related. They are all wimps! Since we're doing 4 park days, I think even one late night would do me in. I want to plan HHN one year when we have a less-busy vacation schedule. Four days is a lot for us, as we usually only do 2 park days max. We attend MNSSHP every year, the last one being in 2019. I really hope Disney brings it back next year. If that's the case, then next year I would plan one MNSSHP and at least one HHN next year, maybe even two.
