Can't wait to scare again!

In that case, Luke should go for it. Things might have changed since then but how do you know if you don't go. Better to go and be told you are too young then not try at all.

Only time will tell. Don't expect it but keep checking just in case.

Those rumors were shot down a few months ago. Not gonna happen for a long while.

Do you recall if it was the actual Caretaker or one of the Fear Revealed scare zone Caretakers?

Exactly. If you go into the audition not thinking you will get a role, whether it is in a house, scare zone, active backup or firecrew they will notice. Just clear your mind so you can think if they ask you a question you have to think a little before you answer and be yourself. That is what they are looking for.

As a guest: My first house being Psycho - Through The Mind of Norman Bates having been a huge Psycho/Hitchcock fan since a very young age. Basically, I remember most of the scares I got as a guest and am thankful for every one! It's what made me want to be a scareactor. As a scareactor: Scaring a guy really good after he called all his friends pansies for being scared and a random guest telling me I was his first scare last year after I scared him in Catacombs, both as a Plague Doctor. Scaring a guy pushing a woman in a wheelchair so bad he jumped back into the wall and ended up pushing the poor woman in the wheelchair into the wall in LT. Being a Pig Faced Minion in the Saw house as well as being a "ninja" in Esqueleto Muerte. Being Active Backup lets you meet a bunch of people during the event and every one of them accepts you into the house or scare zone family for the night or nights and it just makes you want to make them proud to have you a part of it all. Not to mention fans of HHN just like me. So to those on here that I might have worked with or even scared or spoken with for a second or two the last two years thank you for helping make even more memories. And here's to many, many more!!!

I'd love to see Frightanic make a return. Never got to do the original(s) and I have a (healthy) obsession with the ship it was based off of (Titanic, obviously). Other than that, I don't want to see any house make a return for at least 2 more years. Go with some more original houses. Obviously some will be a hit like Catacombs and Havoc were last year and others not so much. Build off of the new originals that fans/guests really like(d) from the next two years (three if you count the originals from last year) that can replace the Psychoscareapy, Body Collectors, Scary Tales, etc. franchises.

That's what Active Backup and Firecrew are for. If someone of your height and build is absent, someone from Active Backup/Firecrew fitting the (somewhat) same height and build will fill in. They may fill up most of the houses and scarezones but they need ABU and Firecrew to fill as much roles as possible for the night. Heck some roles can be filled in by the opposite sex like the Spirit Seeker outside the facade of Legendary Truth (if I remember correctly the name of that character used a name both Males and Females can have, can't remember it off the top of my head).

In the e-mail/confirmation I got it said to arrive 30 minutes before your appointment but it also said to be ready to wait longer than that just in case.

Nothing has changed. Still the Universal Orlando events site.

No, you do not have to work for Universal to audition for the General Public auditions. And no one knows what they will make you do until you are auditioning.

I was a Active Backup the last two years...

Just curious as to what times others are selecting. I signed up for 6:20. Anyone else get that time. If so, that could help give an idea of what they plan to do at the auditions.

No real change, for me at least. Having been a guest to (unfortunately just) three HHNs (99, 07, 08) before auditioning for 09 and last year (ABU both years), there was already an appreciation and respect for the event and scareactors. After being on the other side (scareactor) in 09, the appreciation and respect just grew not only for the event and scareactors but for the makeup artists, the people in charge of the costumes, and everyone else behind the scenes. For me the scares only got better. Only thing that really changed was seeing many, many, many, many, many more guests acting stupid and being A-holes than as a guest, and I saw a lot of that as a guest.

Nothing was there as of this morning.

I remember seeing some horror movie clips while waiting in line for Vampyr: Blood Bath. Either way they did use them in 07 for whatever reason and they haven't used them since.

And at Carnival of Carnage. Haven't seen it since.

While that would be very welcome, whats to keep someone from getting an alcoholic beverage at any of the restaurants/bars/clubs in CityWalk before they get to the event? Hate to say it but I doubt that would work.

Exactly. This is wishful thinking.

They weren't Nazis, they were just German.

I could see an IT house kinda like Howl O Scream's Alone except it is customized to what scares you. That is what IT did, right? Man I have to read that book again. Movie was okay. Tim Curry as IT was the only real thing going for it (no pun intended).

Being so close to the kiddie area of the park, highly doubtful. Now if it was rumored for the former Murder She Wrote/Hercules, Xena building, that could be plausible.

Catacombs: Mummified Corps (cast A) after the first right handed turn. Knew she was there and still got me. Finale Cindy, don't remember what cast. She went for my girlfriend and cared the crap out of me instead! Thank you.
