Halloween Horror Nights 35 (UO) - Speculation & Rumors

[Tobias]

There's only 2 zones left right? Are we thinking that they might skip a day like they did with the originals

When they did the original house week there were only four houses to announce and they skipped announcing one on Tuesday.

For the zones, there's only four rumored ones, yet they announced one today. That leads me to believe they're not skipping a day and will announce something every day this week just like they did last year. And just like last year and mentioned earlier on the forum, the last announcement will most likely be the street experiences (Club Horror, Mel's Die-In Zombies.)

I also agree I don't see them announcing the lagoon show yet, since my gut feeling is it'll incorporate IP's which have yet to be announced. (e.g., Ozzy) So they gotta' wait until all of them are revealed beforehand or alongside the show.

Time to dig into those savings or invest in really good runners!

Then I have some on-site hotel stays to cancel, glad Loews has good cancelation policies.

I might shorten my trip for lesser nights with Express or something. Currently booked hotel stay as if FFP with Express is on but if not I might need to change all that.

Maybe I should be thanking Universal, I will save a couple thousand with only one trip instead of 2 or 3 of my usual.

RIP tours are nearly sold out. And then the express passes will soon follow as the event approaches.

I am somewhat preemptively going to ask everyone in this thread to chill out. We're not going to let this devolve any further than it already has.

If per Legacy that is the case, maybe they aren't doing FFP w/ express but some of the discussion on here might be right in that there will be an alternative (hence the discourse mess part and saying specifically FFP, and not multi-nights?) Maybe though it does mean totality.

I'm going to give it until the end of the month to see what/if anything happens and then just plump for 3 express nights if all fails. Picking a Wednesday, Sunday, Wednesday rotation in early September, I'm hopeful they'll still be available.

I’m expecting CP tomorrow for the zone. If that is Fortnitemares or not we will know tomorrow. I say that because that’s how last years order went and so far they have been following that order.

I can see it being just a smidge different considering unlike last year, we have a rumored IP zone which could be potentially shared with Hollywood's event. Either way, we won't have to wait long to see what's announced.

I am lucky I am autistic, as I just use my attraction assistance pass, so this doesn’t really affect me. But I am still sad for all the other people who need this add on.

That means…*Slowly sits in my chair like quint in jaws preparing to reel in the shark.*

If this proves to be the case, sounds like a last-minute audible (like the decision to keep it last year). My "after 11" source is solid ... but also said it would go on sale tomorrow. I have to think the delay is tied into that.

I do wonder--hope the better word--if they pair this announcement with some new form of AP access to Epic. There will be much gnashing of teeth among the AP whales (and on social media), but unlike Disney, I do wonder if some truly will walk away. TBH, I'm not sure even Disney ever fully recovered from its post-COVID AP debacle, and the Mouse has a lot more nostalgia-based loyalty.

CDC better set up shop in Orlando, about to see a Black Plague-level epidemic of IBS and autism in Team Members and APs.

How about - everyone that argues about it again, owes Brian and Jake a drink at HHN this year? (They'll have more money to do so because they don't have Express)

So after 11, nobody should entire a regular line as express will be swamped.

We won't know that until the event starts.

Express users from earlier usually empty out around 11, hence why they’ve historically offered an “after 11pm” express option.

Hopefully all the locals stay away until after 11 and it's quieter earlier in the night.

Saw Evil Dead Burn last night and actually enjoyed myself more than I expected! Again, I've never seen any of the Evil Dead movies, so I was going in without much context lol

I have some questions that were left unanswered, but I'm guessing some of them would be answered if I watch the other films, so I may go back and check some of those out.

While watching, there were definitely a lot of scenes I could totally see translating well into a house. So, whether or not that rumor comes to fruition, it has a lot of potential. I don't think it would be the most mind blowingly unique house just by nature of what's available in the source material, but I think it would be a solidly good time!

I also saw a family with three kids clearly under the age of 10 (one definitely being about 4-5) in that theater, and the dad stepping aside to hold the littlest one like he was trying to soothe her before returning to their seats. I don't have kids, so maybe I can't judge, but that felt like a strange choice of movie to bring little ones to... but I digress. Overall, a fun time and kept me engaged the entire movie!

This is true. I didn’t even think about it being shared with Hollywood so the 10:35 will be 12 or after also

That's some... uh... fine parenting at work there.
(i don't have kids. i have seen the movie. i will judge.)
