POLTEGEIST CONFIRMED

https://blog.universalorlando.com/whats-new/poltergeist-hhn/

Woohoo!!! Keep ‘em comin!!

 

[kylieelizabethhh]

Between Poltergeist and Stranger Things, I definitely think those will be the long-line houses. I’m so excited for the originals this year, I think they’re going to truly shine against the IPs. But it’ll be cool to see what they do with Poltergeist!

Sticky updated, please Universal, do Poltergiest right! So much iconic material there but the swimming pool scene would be much appreciated

Lol.......despite never having watched that particular movie.........much to Tom’s disbelief, I love that scene!!!

Oh, but you must see it! Get that vibe when looking at giant flower on wall in the RPH standard rooms lol

OK...Stranger Thangs and Poltergiest ... Guess that seals my fate! We're going for the last HHN weekend!

 

[RAPstar]

Oh and also SOX is going to be very influenced by Annihilation, the sequence from Creepshow that Stephen King was in (something something Jordy Verrell), and The Colour Out of Space by Lovecraft.

From what I heard from the person I've been getting all my info from, you start out in the underground graveyard (that the house is built on) then come up through the backyard and enter the "house" from there.

Good thing he kept his day job lol. Campy fun though.

Wow, working in Lovecraft? I’m surprised and impressed, not exactlly mainstream

You are an quite the fountain of HHN knowledge! Yea! That sounds very promising. Nothing worse than a favorite movie/book missing the mark translating into a house.

Do you have any guesses what we might see for remaining houses this year?

The only ones left to be announced are:

Halloween 4: Return of Michael Meyers (are ya'll related BTW? haha)
Scary Tales: Deadly Ever After
Blumhouse 2 (with Happy Death Day for sure. The First Purge is rumored to be the second movie but we don't know for sure)

 

[keishashadow]

Andy after meeting some of my DHs relatives, I’m going to say there’s a distinct possibility hehe

Ok no surprises but seems to be a varied & promising lineup

I'm just glad to finally get to see a Scary Tales house. I'm kind of a big fairy tale nerd, and also a big Oz nerd (the wicked witch is going to be featured prominently).

There are a lot of private boards you can join on FB
All that I read a month ago has been valid

Maybe next year we will set up a spoiler site thread for hhn

For those that do not want to read about specifics before uo announces it would be a good thing for a general thread

 

[schumigirl]

5 weeks to go...……………….

 

[MikeNamez]

I may have missed it but have they announced any AP early entry events yet?

Not yet.

Talk to me about getting in to HHN at the start time. We are not going to be in the park before HHN because I just can't justify the cost with buying an HHN ticket and the EP for all 4 of us. Any good tips & tricks?

Universal Studios will close at 5 pm on HHN nights.

Folks who have a day park ticket and HHN ticket can go to stay and scream areas. Once all non HHN ticket holders are out of the park then the folks in stay and scream areas can be released to houses when they open usually about 6 - 6:15 pm. Most of these people do not have EP.

Non day park HHN ticket holders start lining up outside the gate early.....I have seen lines pretty hefty on weekends for sure......the fact you are going to have EP will help.

You will be glad you have the EP when you see how long the lines are for folks who do not have EP....especially if it’s on a busy night.

Not sure what month or night you are going September, October. This does make a difference. If it’s a Friday or Saturday it will be busy.

Did you cost out the price of a RIP TOUR vs ticket for the night and EP for each in your party.

If you only have one night that might be a good cost comparable option...Nice perks with the tour for sure.

read through page one but didn't see the answer. Has the UO TM discount ticket prices been released? For some reason I go to the UOTeam site and can't find prices there either

 

[macraven]

No TM’s have posted here what their discounts will be for tickets

We usually do not have any postings from staff that will state it openly

Your best bet is to talk to other TMs and ask them what was the discounted cost for tickets last year
My guess it will be about the same for 2018

I was told it usually is late in the game for the employees to find out their discounted cost in past years

Hopefully you will find out the info soon!

Thanks. I know the current newsletter is talking about rock the universe so I'm guessing next one will be hhn and that will have the discount info. My son is a tm so he'll be able to get me a discounted ticket

 

[macraven]

Isn't it great to have a relative working the parks so you can enjoy the perks!
UO is great about TM getting deals for their family.

I did contact two TM's I am friends with after i posted back to you and they told me they have not seen or heard anything yet on the discounts for them.(hhn)
