Official 2022 HHN 31 - Horror is Universal

[keishashadow]

edit: the below was from a reliable website. Appears they may have jumped the gun as it‘s been pointed out to me that these are 2022 dates duh lol.

Can verify that permits were filed last month re work on the sprung tents & building 79/large parade building.

if anything, a date template of sorts (moving everything back a day for 2023 vs 2022)






“Universal announced that the 2023 Halloween Horror Nights Dates will start on September 2nd, 2023 and run through October 31st 2023.

I’m sure we’ve all seen the various rumors re 2023’s houses. fun way to pass the winter

Assume we’ll be seeing a classic U Monster house in one form of the other. Well overdue to work their legacy & promote Epic Universe.

this one caught my eye today. Unexpected as to the Phantom

Bring on the Universal monsters ...

Maybe they can do a Parisian themed house for it this year. I had heard rumors/ideas of Hunchback of Notre Dame being used as it will be the 100th anniversary of that film and is considered the first universal monster movie by many. Phantom of the Opera was first done in 1925, but also has a version that's part of their classic monsters film collection from 1943 so be hitting it's 80th anniversary. with both set in Paris could do a cohesive house with the two of them that could look amazing with the opera house and catacombs along with the Cathedral. so could be a maze with great decor that takes you from the dizzying heights of the cathedral peaks, to the dreary, crumbling catacombs below the city.

So with all the construction what do folks think will happen houses wise?
Not sure they can use Shrek anymore and the kid zones are closed
Could be some very long walks I guess

Have not thought about it too much - but I assume others have

 

[keishashadow]

Permits have been filed for tents 1& 2 as well As parade bldg.

KidZone area construction during 2023 could = congestion at MIB if they use it for all entrances in that section of park

Don’t want to consider even more walking each night to hit all the houses in that section from a more far-flung area

Perhaps the access near la bamba?

Wonder if they could use the one near the SpongeBob store/CS there?

we were not going to go this fall but decided we need to fly down for a Thursday and Friday night during my daughter's fall break in October when we heard the rumor of a Dracula/Phantom of the Opera house. Who were we kidding anyway - we have too much fun to skip it. Christmas is overrated anyway lol as that was when we were going to come instead

 

[keishashadow]

M3GAN is likely a done deal As so popular With what appears to be their new target audience of teens/20 somethinGs. Since many have family in tow forking the bill, would be nice to see some of the horror classics represented Or revisited.

was thinking about what U monsters they could roll out, wish they’d include the creature from the black lagoon in a house. Wouldn’t mind seeing it in a long monsters’ scarezone either.

I just noticed this on Twitter… a speculation map

[keishashadow]

Just coming to post

V.1 is out. Seems a bit early, their guess as good as anywhere to Start predictions & drum up interest

 

[keishashadow]

FYI - Violent Night streaming on peacock. David Harbour as drunk Santa & John Leguizamo as mercangry “Scrooge” lit it up lol

when I noticed a credit the beginning of the film that Universal was involved with that movie, found myself picking out scenes that would translate well in a house. That’s when you know you have it bad

Krampus house was fun but, it’s been done, I’m rooting for Violent Night

No Stranger Things as big as it is? I thought I heard last year it would be one along with the original monster's houses rotating parks. looking forward to september allready!

There has been a rumor that HHN and Netflix had a falling out.

I think if they do another ST house it will be to coincide with the 5th season. So if it happens, it will be 2024. Doesn’t make sense to do it in an off year.

 

[Skippyboo]

Probably can use some of ST props especially from the upside down in the Last of Us house.

 

[keishashadow]

Straight from the vampire’s mouth (for USH, assume a shoo in for Orlando too)

 

[glamdring269]

Can’t wait to get back to HHN. My first and only was HHN29. Did a solo public RIP that year but hoping for a private when we visit in early October. Should be a great time!

 

[PrincessJasmine88]

Still no dates?

 

[macraven]

Still no dates?

Correct
No official dates released yet

Don’t worry as they will be released
Some speculation has been posted but nothing official.
