JGmoney1996 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 How were lines last night compared to the first weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTH316 Posted September 25, 2016 Author Share Posted September 25, 2016 I was watching them and they didn't look as bad. That extra hour seems to be working. Also, it seems word of mouth on Exorcist has dropped lines for it a bit (Lot of people saying it's the best or the worst), so now the lines are taking a back seat to AHS, which has stayed dominant in wait times. Or just opening it the earliest of all the mazes has lowered capacity during normal hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBZ Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Based on last night is there a new plan/schedule that someone should follow? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGmoney1996 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Backlot then Exorcist or should we still wait until the end of the night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXpressives Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I wasn't sure how they did this previous years, but if you have a season pass and bought a ticket for HHN, can you stay in the park for Early Entry like the Day/Night combo? Or do I have to exit and re-enter in the Early Entry line? I figured I'd go during the day while I'm at it since I have the pass, but would like to know if I have to leave to get ready for Early Entry.

AsylumSB Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Visit Harry Potter if Early Entry continues as is; we rode Forbidden Journey and drank a frozen butterbeer. Nice way to start the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsylumSB Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 It was nice but go there first. They started to close the lines around 530ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTH316 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 This was actually my first thought when I heard of the 5 PM extension, but then I checked wait times around 5:30ish and saw it was closed already so i assumed they closed at 5 so early entry didn't bother, but now that all makes sense! i haven't been to hogwarts yet so if this means I miss TWD, Jabbawockeez and maybe even TCM on my next visit, I won't mind!

HailtotheKingBaby Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 That is exactly what we did Saturday night as well. We went in for Early Entry at 5pm and headed straight to Forbidden Journey. The main line was 90 minutes, but we did single rider and it was 10 min. We then went to the Lower lot and all the mazes were still 20 min or less. Thanks again for all the tips on this site. It really helped make our trip awesome! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tich0las Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Think I'm going to get FoL for Oct. 6. If early entry gets me in at 5, and I can hit HP once, seems like I should try and avoid the massive waits for houses. I would also like to get the full effect in Exorcist, so going during day time isn't an option. Can anyone recommend a route for seeing/riding everything at HHN with FoL on Thurs. Oct. 6 from 5-9:30 PM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foodstampsFTW Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Yea there are 2 trucks on the backlot, a grilled cheese truck and a taco truck. I wouldn't recommend going to them though, I ordered a grilled cheese with pulled pork because I loved the one I had when Gru's Cafe first opened and now nobody goes there because it sucks, and I just wanted to see if was any good and get this, they ran out of fucking cheese and they had to switch my order to chicken tacos, good tacos, overpriced though. But it took like 20-30 mins to get the food and that area is crowded with people. Definitely would not recommend eating at the food truck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foodstampsFTW Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 If you still want tacos, bumblebee mans taco truck is open, when I saw that it was open for horror nights it was already closed so I don't know if the waits are long, but I assume since you are eating at Jurassic Cafe, you want to eat somewhere in that area of the park for your gameplan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTH316 Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 Those bumblebee tacos suck, super dry and no spice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tich0las Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 On my ticket for Oct. 6, it states "Arrive before 5 PM for early entry. Select mazes start at 5:15 PM." Pretty excited since I was hoping to ride Potter and also wanted to try and hit a few mazes twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halloween Blues Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 So this year I've decided to do something different and skip HHN during October and hit it up on the final Saturday in November. Generally speaking, what's it like on that last day? Is it as crowded as any typical day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foodstampsFTW Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 No idea, it's only ever been that late once and that was last year, and most people didn't know about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
