Unmasking the horror tours:
The 3 House tour will include:

• Hatchet and Chains: Demon Bounty Hunters
• Dolls: Let's Play Dead
• Grave of Flesh

The 6 house tour is

• Fallout
• Jason Universe
• Terrifer
• Galkn: Monsters of the North
• El Artist: A Spanish Haunting
• WWE presents: The Horrors of the Wyatt Sicks

It seems odd to me no IP on the 3 house.
Also no FNAF - although I am not that surprised

Maybe they will have the buffet style lunch included for the 6-haunted house tour in the FNAF restaurant - that would be cool

100% rumor currently but - supposedly Louie's Pizza will have a FNAF overlay\experience for HHN

Would be cool if true.

Just seeing all the stuff they have set up already in scare zones its pretty impressive compared to the last couple years.

That would be amazing. I don't know where Louie's is, but I would find it for sure if that was the case.

And the scare zones are looking super impressive. Much better then last year and I liked last year's. Though that way my first time going to I had nothing to compare it to.

It's next to the arcade that is near the mummy shop exit.

"It's next to the arcade"

Sounds like a perfect location.

 

[LilyWDW]

The arcade that they have closed off? Maybe they are using both to make Freddy Fazbear's???

If that happens my friend is going to regret not coming with this year lol.

It seems the arcade will be part of the tribute store - that is the rumor anyway.
The construction for RRR is by the exit of the tribute store so I guess that exit will not be available.
Still not sure what the plan is so we will see.

There is a street between the Arcade and Louie's so not directly connected.

Have to say the Cat Lady scare zone is over the top with details - they built her entire house and the detail is just amazing. Every day there seems to be more.

They took over the entire area at the end of the path by Animal Actors - the only drawback is all those benches seem to be gone.

I'm cautiously optimistic about the scare zones this year. Sounds like they've heard the feedback about how awful they've been

Yeah - just adding the minions area is a nice change - it was ridiculous having that empty area.

The Mel's Die in Stuff is sounding really cool.

NY area looks decent.

The SF area looks like it will just be a DJ\Coke\Fanta? area so not really a scare zone.

I think there are rumors of roving SAs as well which used to be very cool.

So seems like a return to what it used to be (hopefully) - I like to just sit and observe those areas well enjoying an overpriced drink

Cool - hopefully they will announce the food soon

You'll wait til the day before the event and like it!


I wish they would announce food earlier

 

[tony67]

I saw a photo of the Vault 33 food booth as well - very cool.

Somewhat related - I've mentioned this before but I still have not made it over - VAULT 5421 - a wasteland themed bar in the God's & Monsters comic book store. a few blocks away from Universal.

Has anyone been and how is it - I really want to try and get over there one night before HHN - but I have been saying that for so many years.

I'm upset the Hollywood version of the Wyatt house sounds so much better

Never been to Hollywood - but I think in general they are better just because they don't have the conga line and crowds or Orlando.
Orlando has a bit more space I think - but I'm not really sure.

That said - I suspect the Orlando house will be very good - Mike Aiello is a huge fan of WWE and pretty much made this whole thing happen if I am not mistaken. He is really excited about this house and has wanted to do it for years.

He is also the lead who truly made HHN in Orlando what it it IMO - he was not as involved the last few years as he was busy with Epic and it shows.

So I would not worry too much - but you can always go to both.

Never been to Orlando - but I assure you they definitely have the conga lines and crowds in Hollywood. If what you say is true and Orlando is even more crowded, I am now triple-sure glad that we got RIP.

I'll also add that while I've always had fun at HHN in Hollywood, I think I'd much rather have the originals and scale Orlando gets. Plus the Terror Tram hasn't been good in a decade. Maybe that first year they added Jupiter's Claim was okay, but it's been meh since.

Interesting - I've always heard they pulse people through in smaller groups. They also allow photos etc..

In Orlando its just a constant line and they want you to keep moving and keep up with the person in front of you - lots of Universal Team members in the house just pushing you through.

Yeah RIP tour or express is the only way to go IMO - RIP is pretty much immediate. Express is a giant time saving. They are still part of the Conga Line - both express and RIP.
Standard can be a nightmare - 90 -120 minute waits are not unusual - and this year will be crazy.
