Preview and 4 Nights Gothic - 4 Dead End - 4 Silent Hill - 3 TWD - 5 HOH - 6 P&T - 7 AC - 7 Bill & Ted - 2 20 Penny - 1

This will be straight forward about everything and maybe out of order. I'm only strictly short-reviewing houses/characters not scares since it's Scareactors first night. I've done all 7 houses and watched Bill & Ted. Got everything done with an hour to spare. We went by this order: Alice Cooper Bill & Ted The Walking Dead Silent Hill Gothic Dead End House of Horrors Penn & Teller The wait times were screwy all night. So I ignored all of them and just went in. The longest wait was for TWD. Their queue is really long and awkward due to construction going on. This will be the most popular house period. Construction in Amity and the soundstage will hamper the crowds immensely. The pathway in Amity is insanely narrow and very annoying to walk through. If it was possible, Uni needs to widen the pathway just a little bit. I understand if they can't due to safety reasons. The soundstage area has cut off Shrek alley completely. Alice Cooper - There was some weird moments but I'm having the overall "I don't get it." I keep hearing that people who know his music will understand. Maybe that will make a difference? TWD - Really short house for a very long line. There was neat references from the show. There was a lot "Meh" to "Cool" stuff. Silent Hill - My childhood! Many people will not get this house if they never played the video games and watched the movie. The things I expected did meet my exceptions and I died in one scene. There was potential for more in this house. Gothic - This house was beautiful! The details were amazing! I loved the atmosphere! They had all my favorite effects all in one house! You have to look Everywhere or you will miss something! Dead End - Same description as Gothic. This house was fascinating and eerie! House of Horrors - If you loved Dead Exposure, you will love this house! Simple yet very creepy! Penn & Teller - It was different and hilarious. Make sure you watch the queue video! I had no need for the 3D glasses. It actually just distorted my vision instead. ------------------------------------------------------------ Streets - I like the audio and the atmosphere. I didn't see much of the scareactors but there's obvious reasons for that and I don't blame them. I really do like the costumes from what I've seen. Bill & Ted - Saw the very first showing. Very slow pace but it will improve as always throughout the event. A lot of people don't get what's going in the show like "Who is that?" or "I don't get it.". I guess I was lucky to know 98% of what's in the show. I think it's the first year under a different person if I remember correctly? Everywhere else - The lighting from the lagoon really adds on to whole atmosphere. I did miss the "shows" though. I loved the park soundtrack especially when Silent Hill comes up.

I'm going to employee preview with HNN shirt!

Sept 21 and Oct 31. Wearing HNN shirt!

I bought all my HHN merch yesterday morning before work. I got all the shirts, one extra house shirt for fiance, shooter, shot glass, and pin! The total run up to $123! With my discount, it was only $83! I wasn't interested in the playing cards since I actually held my friend's deck and they felt "cheaply" made. I almost got the hat but since I didn't work this year, wearing hat that says HHN 21 with Scare Crew on the side of it didn't make sense to me. I'm really sad that I missed out on the hoodies. They would've been perfect for my scareactor patches but sadly, I didn't have the extra spending earlier in the month. Oh! The Bill & Ted shirts are already marked down! Instead of 21.95, it was 14.99.

The zone is odd to me. I don't hate or love it. I do LIKE it. I want to know who was the giant skull face on stilts that whispered in my ear and it kinda freaked me out. I couldn't tell what you said but you got the job done!

Last night, I actually sat in this zone for an hour and a half I believe. I saw both casts! The crazy sloth zombies are amazing! Yay leapfrog! One of them saw a wheelchair, got on his knees, and starting shuffling on them along with the wheelchair! I loved the way they do their cast switches. Each minions with their sin, escorting them to their places. One of the red robed guys keeps growling or snarling at me. I have no idea if I know him or it's just because of my HNN shirt. The women know their roles! I love how they interact with their minions according to their sin. I visited the zone again around 11:15ish and as I was leaving toward the chainsaws, one the Gluttony guys gave a piece of his "food" (vomit, maybe?) that was on their face/costume... Very random but it cracked me up.

Add me for preview night!
