Please advise HHN ???

[Nancyar]

Greetings all,

I will be celebrating anniversary with the hubby and we chose to do a night at HHN since we are both huge Walking Dead fans. Never been before and I have a few questions. The date we picked is Wed. October 24. I know this is considered Hell Week since schools will be on break. We have day passes so we will just wait inside the park until entry at 5:30/6:00. My questions are:
#1: is it possible to do most ( at least 6) houses with express passes and still have time to do the Bill & Ted show?
#2: around what time does the park usually close during the week at hhn?
#3: do the scare actors only jump out at you or do they get right up in your face? Do they chase you?
#4: is it true the scare actors will even be roaming the bathrooms. What do they do in there to scare you?
I just want to know to prepare myself. If we don't get to all the houses I won't die over it (lol!), the ones specifically on my wishlist are Walking Dead, DeadEnd, and Gothic, plus Bill and Ted. Thanks for any help.

1. Yes
2. Usually either midnight or 1am
3. They get in your face and will sometimes chase you but it's all in fun.
4. No one knows...this is the first time they've tried it.

Stay and Scream will aid your cause but remember...do not use your EPs if the wait time is under 30 minutes. Save them for when the lines get longer as the night progresses.

Thanks for the quick reply! I forgot to ask about a couple of things. first, can the wait times even for those with express passes be significant? Second, my eyesight is not the greatest at night to be chased. What can I do to get them bored of me so they will move along?

EP wait times are usually under 20 minutes but there's a problem with the house, it could be longer. I've never waited more than about 20 minutes using Express.

The key to handle the scareactors is...don't act scared. If you are panicking and are obviously scared, they will come after you.

Wow, that helps, thanks! I hope there might be a map at the official sight to help me plan things out. And hopefully the ones on my wish list will be the first open so I can hit them twice using the express pass the second time around.

Easier said than done (I`m a screamer so I`m like a magnet for scare actors)

To the OP.....have a great time We adore HHN`s and can`t wait to get back to when it`s on

We, like Metro have always had EP, and again don`t remember waiting longer than 20 mins max.....so worth it

LOL! I'm a screamer too. If they want to bug me a little that's fine , but I had multiple surgeries on one eye and running is not an option with low-light and balance issues. Will gave DH to protect me though. Can't wait!
