I can't believe nobody has even mentioned this before, but in a house full of holidays...where is Halloween?

You aren't paying extra for Stay and Scream, you are paying extra to add on HHN to your normal day ticket.

Maybe it was just because I was with you for pretty much all of opening weekend, but I pretty much agree with everything you said here 100% Great review, and nice job putting it together with pictures and a rating system too!

I meant that I couldn't find my way through the dark parts of the house. The yarn room was never a problem to navigate. I don't understand the actor's costumes in there either. Why have a costume of squiggly lines when the rest of the room is nothing but straight lines?

7246? When it rains at HHN, I usually will take shelter in a store and wait it out. I hate getting soaked, and ponchos just cost way too much. That's if I'm lucky enough to not be in a long line...if I'm in a long line, then I'm pretty much screwed, and I'll wait it out, and enjoy a nice cold walk through the house once I finally get in.

I usually will lean back in the other direction, often smiling at the same time. The amount that I jump back and how fast I do it depends on how startled I got. I usually don't make any noise, but I might yell WHOA or something of the sort. It takes a good distraction and an aggressive scareactor to make me jump, but when it happens I always smile as I jump back. Often giving a thumbs up to whoever got me so good. I did this as well my first time through that house. And after this last trip to HHN, I've noticed that after a few drinks, I DO scream.

Got the hoodie and love it! It's very soft and comfortable, and I like the simple design.

To the people who said this house was short, I'm wondering if they went through the same house I did. While the sets sometimes felt a little repetitive, The Forsaken definitely is a decent length house. The eyes never turning off doesn't seem like a major issue to me either. I've had good runs and bad runs through this house, but it definitely has improved since Employee Preview.

I got to experience this house the best way possible on Saturday night. First in line, during the day when my eyes hadn't adjusted to the dark. Some rooms were absolutely impossible to make it through without someone to follow! I literally had to stumble through with my arms out in front of me, running into walls. Every single scare startled the crap out of me because I was lost and had no idea where they are coming from. That is the perfect way to experience a haunted house at HHN.

This house has some amazing sets. Especially the room with the thing in the ceiling, and the spaceship at the end. I personally enjoy the loudness.

It's not a different number this year. I texted "Tonight" (not in all capitals) on employee preview night and I got wait time updates for this year's houses throughout the night. Unless Universal says something about a new number later tonight, I'm guessing they will be using the same one this year.

They really don't look like anything. They are completely black. There are two that are a very strange shape but the rest are all black human shapes.

Total Nights - 3 Saws n Steam - 4 Bloodengutz - 4 The Thing - 4 Nightingales - 6 Winters Night - 6 Forsaken - 4 In Between - 7 Nevermore - 3

For those who feel like the Ops ruin houses for them, they should be pleasantly surprised this year. It seems like Universal is getting better at putting them in places that are out of the way because I hardly saw any when going through the tent houses and the parade building. None of them were even waving us through, except for in The Thing.

After going through the house last night, I feel like all of the worries about PTSD for this house were unnecessary. I honestly feel like there would be more of an issue when walking through The Thing than Nightingales.

I walked through this house during a cast change, and I still loved loved it! Saws n Steam is really great for a Jaws house. It felt like tent quality.

This seems like it will end up being the "fun" zone this year. I didn't get a chance to see the costumes at different times during the night, but still, think people who had low expectations for 7 will be pleasantly surprised.

Went through all eight houses tonight and this one, no lie, was my favorite by far. Went through is twice and it is better in the day because it's much darker. The 3D is very well done and the scares were extremely effective because you can almost never see where the booholes are.

Text "Tonight" to 64646. At least that was how it was done the last two years.

For the last two years, I've been subscribing to the nightly wait time updates on my phone, even on the nights I wasn't attending. I wrote down all the numbers and based on what I've seen, the second weekend of HHN is the least crowded. I'm guessing that Thursday September 29th will have the some of the shortest lines this year.

I was actually under the impression that this year didn't have a tagline at all. That it was just Halloween Horror Nights 21. I've actually seen the phrase "Your Fate is in Her Hands" more than "Come Try Your Luck" anyway.

I hate the heat, I'm very much a cold person, yet I really love wearing hoodies. Not around the house or outside, but if I'm going out to some place I will usually wear a hoodie if it's nighttime. If there was a HHN hoodie I would wear it a lot more often than I would wear a single shirt.
