Someone on another board mentioned ops was telling people to put away their cameras/phones in the queue way before the entrance to AHS.

I'll add all nine with a spec guess at what unannounced houses may or I hope to be. 1. Krampus - I've not even seen the movie yet but I just love the whole thing about it. Cool characters, etc. Will actually be getting the movie to watch tonight. <wide margin> 2. TCM - Original movie version and too creepy sick to not be here. Pure horror. 3. H2 - Final scene from H1 bridging through town and into the hospital should be a wild ride. 4. Ghost Town - Sharing SS24 with TWD love the setting / period and expect a great house. 5. Exorcist - Would like this to be higher but I'm worried about the execution or how I perceive it. Hope it exceeds my expectations. 6. El Chupacabra - In T1 - just guessing what this will be. Expect a nice surprise from this original no matter what it is. 7. AHS - Haven't watched every season but if this is the mega house in SS25 it will have variety. 8. Chance - Hoping I don't need to be a psychologist to enjoy this one. Setting expectations low. 9. TWD - Wife and I like the show so we should enjoy it but it's getting tired from a house perspective. Hard to seed some of these because I think 26 will be solid house wise. Some have to be near the bottom.

I thinks it's nice for some of us who have to pay for airfare and hotels along with non-resident passes to get thrown a bone every once in awhile. Yes you are grumpy.

This link is from OI and shows a pic of the path to right side of the main entrance for onsite guests. I've always had park tickets and done S&S so have never used it. Not sure if it's still a thing for 26. http://d3b8erylo0uriu.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/halloween-horror-nights-hhn-2014-0822-oi.jpg

Uhhmmm. So what is it? A best of house?

A lot of spec has been that H2 will be in Parade. We'll see if this holds true very soon I'm sure.

Are you doing both AM and PM? I heard those doing the combo will check into IOA and those doing singles will go to the normal US check in location.

Thanks Gambit. Great stuff. The link for the Chance mobile WP in the first row top right is messed up. Just FYI. Thank you again!

So an IP. ok.

Would it contain armor?

Not a 3rd tent for a house? New building? Two houses in the existing parade? Getting kind of confusing at this point but damn this is fun.

You are possibly cancelling because of ONE house? That's not fair to the other eight. Ignore TWD and come.

Good point. Did not think about the cooling aspect that Krampus would require. Maybe Krampus is in 21 part of the mega/uber. Still hard to tell what is where.

Based on this latest twist I'm guessing Krampus, if it happens, goes to T3. The original Requel per Legacy's list now shares SS24 with TWD.

This sounds juicy!

I'm taking it as that.

Drew responded no AHS. FWIW.

Did not expect a 2nd Orlando house announced this quick nor THIS EPIC. Wow! Love this!

Pledge to be happy going only one night this year. Sharing a trip this year with my brother that will be Disney based. They have never been to HHN's and while we may still purchase ROF, it will probably just be one day, both parks (Kong!), with HHN added and Express. The other days will be Disney. Haven't been to F&W in fours years since HHN and Uni took over my fall trip 5 years ago. I can do this.

Wow Mark those photos are amazing! Thank you for sharing!

I'm doing them both on Friday and will post the lineup.

Doesn't TWD exit at the Purge entrance? If you were really going to try and minimize walking and get three houses done quickly, wouldn't you do TWD (Parade), Purge (T1), and then Insidious (T2) in that order? Or would the wait for Insidious build that quickly? This would be using the Diagon S&S area.

My plan is very similar to Merlins. Will probably be at Finnegans like I was last year for S&S. Will do FvJ first then not quite sure. Will depend on what house SS house opens next. Last year it was usually Dracula but I like the idea of heading straight to the front of the park for AWIL. Since I'm doing four nights in a row will probably change up the S&S location but it's hard not to beverage at Finnegans and just hang beforehand.

It is my understanding those ornaments would be on sale starting 9/16. Not sure if that has changed or not. My wife wants one badly so it will be the first thing we do in the park on Sep 24.

Annual Passholder Nights are the 18th, 19th, 25th, and 26th of Sep. Not sure about Oct 3. https://www.universalorlando.com/rsvp/hhn25/rsvp.aspx
