Karras Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) The Adventurers Guide to Halloween Horror Nights 21 <- Click here. I stick to a pretty strict house route every year.

Nightingales 7. Winters Night 8. The In-Between 9. Nevermore What path of Horror do you fancy? Edited September 16, 2011 by Karras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumboshrmp Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 I always go around the park, counter clockwise, usually starting at the tents since the parade building often doesn't have a long line. Tent 1 Tent 2 Jaws Disaster Soundstage Houses in whatever order seems best at the time. Parade building first if it is already open, otherwise Tent 1 and then parade building later.

Stumpy Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 I'll be using the same plan as last year, paired with the Stay and Scream holding area in New York. Worked out great last time, though with some houses supposedly exiting in different spots this year, I may have to adjust it accordingly. 1. Winter's Night 2. The Thing 3. The Forsaken 4. In Between 5. Nevermore 6. Saws 'n Steam 7. Holidays 8. Nightingales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troiandan Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Last year I pretty much followed the same route as Andrew, starting with the Parade building. However, if I didn't get there for Stay and Scream, I'd try to pop back to Jaws Queue first and knock that one out before B&T crowds hit it. Then I'd continue with the counter-clockwise path. Does anyone know yet what house exits might be changing? Tent 1 dumping by the Tent 2 entrance had a big part in how my path went, just curious how that might change. And I really wish the AP party were in NY instead of KidZone. I really like hanging at Finnegan's first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goo Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 I usually do Jaws queue first and then just make a big circle. But this year I might do the following... The In-between Saws N Steam Holidays of Horror The Thing Nightingales Winters Night The Forsaken In-between again. Nevermore. Then walk back through the zones.

killswitch22 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I usually hit the soundstages first. Then Disaster. Then the tents and parade bulding and save Jaws queue for last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHNFreak2006 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Since I have express passes, I usually do Parade Building, Tent 1 & 2, Jaws Queue, Jaws Attraction, Disaster Queue, Soundstages all without using Express Passes. Then I go get something to eat. Reapeat the same path (minus Jaws the 2nd time) then catch the final Bill and Ted show of the night. . So far it hasn't failed me. 2x the houses and zones, will equal 2x the audio recordings which will make my audio cds double the size. Last year HHN 20 had 16cds, Im hoping to breach 20. L.J.M.

hhnholdem Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I agree with the whole counter clockwise path starting with the tents. However, I don't stress about doing everything in one night, mainly because of the Frequent Fear Pass. My plan for opening weekend is to meet up with anybody doing the AP event and pretty much follow them while socializing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHNFan05 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I like to start in the back where there is less people and work my way up like that so I make long lines 1. The Forsaken 2. The In Between 3. Nevermore 4. Saws N Steams 5. Holiday of horror 6.The Thing 7. Nightingales 8. Winter's Night and in between do Bill and Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figment1988 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 i usually go for the first two soundstage houses which open following Stay and Scream [Writer's Night and Nightingales], then move on to the parade warehouse building [Forsaken], then Tent 1 [in Between], and Tent 2 [Nevermore], then the Jaws Queue [saws 'n Steam] and proceed counterclockwise. when i get a chance, i will go to B&T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsfreakHHN Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 me and my family are like really organized so we usually go in order. this year I THINK we are gonna go straight and around instead of last year we went right and around. the lines were a little shorter but i would like to ride rip ride rockit at night and im in love with it so i think if i run in there and go n regular line instead of using my only fast pass i can. Also idk about the houses. i like the idea of winters night but then the tents arent great in the light. But i really wanna go into nevermore. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hush Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 We go freestyle...whatever house calls to us first, then we hit that one. For us to try and adhere to some kind of specific route...oh hell no, that would never happen. We totally have ADD at this event..."Oh look, what's that...wait something shiny!"

Pastor of Muppets Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 1: Forsaken 2: In-Between 3: Saws N Steams: Into The Machine 4: Nevermore: The Madness of Poe 5: Bill & Ted 6: H.R. Bloodengutz presents: Holidays of Horror When I get to the soundstages, I usually find the house with the lowest wait time and go in that. Odds are, by the time I exit that house, one of the other soundstage houses will have the lowest wait time. Repeat until you have hit every house.

Troiandan Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 "The More Important thing than beating the House is Beating The Crowd" LOL, I like that. Since the House always wins, Beating the Crowd is your only hope Since AP Party tomorrow is in Kids Zone, I'm still planning on doing pretty much the same route as you. Now to get them to hold the party in New York so I can wait it out at Finnegan's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kiwisoup Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I'm interested now that the event has started, how have your guys' planned routes worked out? What were your longest waits, shortest, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CinemaOfTheDead Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Mine worked like a charm and i barely need to wait except for Saws and Steam and that was because of the scareactors. (rest 20 min or less) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
