Expect to find many familiar sights at this year's event. Halloween Horror Nights returns to its roots this year, literally and figuratively, as the event switches from Islands of Adventure back to its original Universal Studios Florida home. Plus, designers have drawn upon past events for inspiration for this year's mazes and shows.
"Being kinda able to back into the past was actually a lot of fun for the designers because it was, like, 'Okay, how can we take the things that people are familiar with and make them bigger and grander and different?'" Mannarino said.
Mannarino also said that Universal has and will continue to monitor guest surveys and websits feedback (including TPI) for ideas on what to do, or not to do, for future Halloween Horror Nights.
"This event has really grown on its fan and guest support," Mannarino said.
So... let's hear it. You can leave comments about HHN on our Halloween Horror Nights wiki page, or below.
If this is your first time, you really should allocate as much time as possible. It's a helluva lot easier to decide at 1AM that you've had enough than it is to realize at 2AM that you haven't had enough.
(do I get the award for worst sentence structure of the week?)
I was planning on getting the express, but I've read in other threads here that opening night lines are not as bad. Any advice from you grizzled veterans?
We went to the Busch Gardens event last year (a Saturday night, but we had no choice) and I was miserable with the lines.
Best of luck! Let us know how it goes!
