What time do HHN gates open?

[Strawman]

We're going to HHN this Saturday, does anyone know what time the front gate will actually open?

 

[Slacking]

They advertise a 6:30 opening, but the gates usually open closer to 6pm

We were there on Sunday, 10/12. It was pretty darn packed. We were in the holding area by Finnegans. To our surprise, they let us in at 5:45 pm. Yes, 5:45 pm. It was so nice. We did two houses. I actually had the Express Passes (for which they informed me are all sold-out for the remaining HHN season). They posted 30 minutes waits -- but had to be more like over an hour. The lines were so.................. long and twisted and turned forever! THe only line that moved was the express line. Also -- did all houses and all scare zones. Found most of the houses so very dark. I wish they would make some of the rooms brighter so you could see more of the scenes. BTW, the Hard Rock Hotel was absolutely wonderful. The hotel was impeccably clean, the service was first rate!

A bunch of DISers were over there Sunday as well and you summed it up pefectly. There other EP's they are selling so don't let that stop you. We did four houses before needing the EP but the rest of the group had it and I didn't...so I took off. Going back for visit #4 on Sunday night.
