Nightshade

Until it gets hit by Hurricane Guest...

Lunatics

FFP people can still go on the last night, so don't expect Halloween to open up.

You may not like the arguably unsupportive approach some actors are taking to this issue, but they are right. Just like with any other profession, if you can't handle being a scareactor, don't be a scareactor. It's really that simple, because the nature of the event, ugly side included, is NOT going to change in order to accommodate the newbies. Yeah, it sucks, but it's been like this for 25 years. ALL haunted attractions have these same problems, albeit on different scales. And some of the suggestions I'm seeing to try to "fix" the event are, quite frankly, completely inane and just bad business acumen. You can't always make everything perfect. If there were some magic bullet that could make HHN all rainbows and unicorns for everyone involved, Universal would have already used it. Also, many newer guests don't seem to realize how much the event has already been affected (for the worse) by increased security measures and policies. They can only do so much. Just be thankful Fox News doesn't get a hold of this story, or the scareactors will be rolling around in protective bubbles next year.

Marketing has too much creative control. Is Aiello guilty of doing pet projects when he could be using his imagination instead? Yeah, but he's the lesser of two evils.

He was indeed at the end of the house.

The saws are outside due to their fumes. The only time you can have saws indoors is when they're not actually running and sound effects are used instead. I would have liked to have seen them continue the house up until the actual stage exit, like they used to, but I'm guessing there's a reason they always leave an empty space at the end now. I personally would have removed Forsaken, Havoc and Bloodengutz and replaced them with Winter's Night, Catacombs and The Thing. I also would've scrapped the rather jumbled homage to Screamhouse/LT/Dead End and just made it a more recognizable Screamhouse scene. Not really sure what they were thinking there. Also, I think they should have tried to include the other icons as well. The entrance is themed around them, yet you only see 4 of those characters in the actual house.

There are already cameras all over the park. You can hardly go anywhere without being on camera, except the bathrooms... maybe.

I've done what more than once? That sounds awfully accusatory. I guess the B&T staff can do no wrong, so it must be my fault.

You clearly know nothing about me, much less what my "habits" are. But everyone's an expert.

A note to Universal: Kick me out of an ADA section entirely "reserved" for seemingly random people one more time and see what happens. Do it.

Picture Freddy and Jason engaged in battle via a 2D fighting game from the early 90's.

Okay, Freddy vs Jason, listen. I know I didn't like you. Thought you were a pretty big disappointment filled with dumb mannequins and corny video displays in lieu of scareactors. But that's no reason to try to strangle me to death. Seriously, someone in the safety department should look into those hanging plant-like things towards the end. If not, I'm bringing a damn weed wacker to the park next week, and you can't stop me.

That entire setup is being suspended from a permanent roof, a luxury our park doesn't have.

Eh, people are gonna discuss the annual April Fool's stuff anyway. SnS didn't really represent anything. It was an "original" concept with only a passing resemblance to anything in particular, other than a very general steampunk motif. Not a bad house, but not terribly creative, a few cool effects notwithstanding. It's annoying to see it get compared to Rapture, one of the best, most distinct settings in video games, or any entertainment medium for that matter, just because it had a guy in a diving suit. There's just so much more an ACTUAL BioShock house would offer. Of course, it would also be crazy expensive if done properly.

The next person to suggest that Saws n Steam was at all representative of Bioshock and/or Rapture is getting smacked with a fish. *goes back into hiding* Look what you made me do, Jimmy.

I think this is your own fallacy. What you're failing to realize is that this upcharge attraction is a privilege, not a right. No one earned it and no one has an inherent right to see it, even after they've paid their $9.99, regardless of age. Universal, being private property, has the sole right to decide who this privilege is given to. They're doing this on their own terms, because they can. You have to respect that. And as I said before, they likely have a logical reason for these terms, even if you disagree with them. You have the right to disagree. However, you're not being wronged in any way, which is why your formal complaint will be rendered moot. Sometimes you just have to accept the way things work, even if you perceive it as being unfair. Having the maturity to do this is part of being an adult. Don't worry, you're getting there.

It is a fan thing... an adult fan thing. While I sympathise with some of the younger members of the HHN community, I'm sure that they had a perfectly reasonable motive for enforcing an age restriction. And I wouldn't necessarily assume that it's alcoholic-related.

This question of whether Jack is a "sell-out" really makes no sense. He was created for marketing purposes... to help SELL the event. You make him sound like a real person with his own possible motives, rather than the mere marketing tool that he has always been. No offense to the actors in Fear Revealed, but seeing them and seeing the "real" Jack at the photo booth are two completely different experiences. There's just no comparison.

Budget? Good jokes don't cost more to write than bad ones. And there's nothing wrong with the show's production values, beyond having an uninspired set. Budget is irrelevant. I still don't see what's so bad about it. Out of the 10 B&T shows I've seen, I'd rank this one no lower than 5th. It's pretty par for the course imo. It certainly isn't laugh a minute, but B&T never is.

I'm sorry, but no, there is no way of getting from Daytona to Orlando. You might as well live on a different planet. You know that large roadway with fast moving vehicles known as I-4? Ignore it, it will do you no good. I'm afraid you're doomed to never visit HHN.

Express is still valid for the first show. Show times will vary depending on what night you go.

Yes, he usually did the show with the Chance who's in Fear Revealed.

James played Jack in the Carnival of Carnage show. He's also doing the photo-op in World Expo this year. We spent like half an hour just watching him on Saturday.
