Universal Studios: Halloween Horror Nights

[Njit]

Er zijn ook kaarten voor meerdere dagen. Dan betaal je een stuk minder per dag. Verder is er de optie Stay and Scream. Dan kun je aansluitend aan je normale bezoek het park 's avonds bezoeken. Grootste voordeel is dat je dan in het park kunt wachten tot de huizen opengaan. Je bent dan de grote drukte voor.

1) You skip the line outside the park. The Halloween Horror Nights line gets crazy, and you have to pass through metal detectors, so that adds an extra wait. You can see a haunted house (or maybe two) if you stay and scream while the poor souls outside are slowly inching their way in.

2) You get to see a house or two early (usually). If all goes well, one or two of the houses will open early. You get released from the holding area when that happens and get a jump on the crowd.

3) You can kill the time eating dinner. One of the two waiting areas is virtually always by Finnegan's restaurant. I love to have dinner while waiting for park to reopen for Halloween Horror Nights. By the time that happens. I'm well nourished and ready for a busy night.

4) You get to see the scare zones in the daylight. The park is a different place in the daylight vs. at night. If you come early, you can go through the scare zones while it's still outside, then return after dark for a completely different experience.

Mooie huizen weer. Vond het in 2011 echt een hoogtepunt van onze vakantie. De sfeer in het park is echt heel goed gedaan! We gaan dit jaar naar de Horror Nights in Europa Park. Ben benieuwd of ze er aan kunnen tippen

[epfan]

Als ik de commentaren hoor van mensen die beide gedaan hebben ga je zeker niet teleurgesteld geraken plus Europa Park is gewoon een geweldig park he.
Na het zien van deze trailers doet het pijn aan mijn halloween hartje dat ik er niet ga geraken. Mijn vriendin is zo niet voor de sfeer ( 2 keer moviepark germany gedaan) en daarom nu ook geen kaarten gekocht.

Universal Studios has announced its final haunted-house theme for Halloween Horror Nights 2013, and it will be based on the Resident Evil video-game series.

In Resident Evil: Escape from Raccoon City, HHN guests will encounter Lickers, Hunters and the monstrous Nemesis. The theming puts visitors inside the video-game realm, including one room representing a fight scene put on pause by a game player. Universal collaborated with Capcom, creators of the game, which also spawned a series of horror films and comic books. "We were able to create incredibly elaborate sets that plant you right in the miedst of Raccoon City's apocalyptic nightmare, along with terrifying adversaries that will send them running," says Michael Aiello, creative director of Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights.
The addition of Resident Evil complete the eight-maze lineup for the 2013 event, the theme park's 23rd edition. Previously reported houses (and now with official names from Universal) include:

+ The Walking Dead: No Safe Haven -- Based on the AMC television drama's third season, which wrapped earlier this year. (Season four begins in mid-October.) The maze will include the town of Woodbury, the prison and walkers (aka zombies). "The Walking Dead" will also take over the event's entire scare-zone program and be known as The Walking Dead: The Undead Streets.

+ Evil Dead -- "Deadites try to possess your soul," Universal says.

+ The Cabin in the Woods -- Go beneath the film's rustic cabin for a tour of a secret facility and its unusual and frightening creatures.

+ An American Werewolf in London -- Scenes from the 1980s John Landis classic, including the Slaughtered Lamb pub, scenes from Piccadilly Circus and, of course, werewolves.

+ Urban Legends: La Llorona -- Featuring a weeping, wandering woman who drowned her children and "seeks others to share her pain and suffering," Universal says.

+ Afterlife: Death's Vengeance --A serial killer meets his maker and his victims. Electric chair alert.

+ Havoc2: Derailed -- The return of the event's Dogs of War supersoldiers, this time on a speeding train.

Two stage show also return to Horror Nights: "Bill & Ted's Excellent Halloween Adventure," which mocks pop culture, and "Rocky Horror Picture Show -- A Tribute."

Halloween Horror Nights runs for 27 select nights between Sept. 20 and Nov. 2. It requires a separate ticket from normal park admission. Price varies by night and with add-ons such as front-of-line access. For more information or for tickets, go to HalloweenHorrorNights.com/Orlando.

Kaarten zijn vanaf gisteren te koop: http://www.halloweenhorrornights.com/orlando/

Er zijn ook al wat details naar buiten gebracht door Attractions Magazine. Zo komt er voor het derde jaar op rij weer een AMC’s The Walking Dead huis. Maar men heeft dit keer flink uitgepakt. Het wordt het grootste spookhuis wat men ooit gebouwd heeft.

For the third year in a row, Halloween Horror Nights is bringing AMC’s The Walking Dead to life with an all-new maze inspired by Season 4 of the show.This year’s maze will place guests at the heart of a harrowing journey to seek sanctuary at Terminus, an elusive destination that promises community for all. Mirroring the terror that befell the residents of the West Georgia Correctional Facility, now overrun by savage walkers. The experience will send guests fleeing from the fallen prison into unknown territory as they once again stage a desperate battle for survival against flesh-eating walkers and ruthless humans.

“This has been an incredible collaboration and I am thrilled to be working once again with the creative teams at Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood to bring the world of ‘The Walking Dead’ to our dedicated fans,” said Greg Nicotero, executive producer and special effect makeup supervisor for the series. “I can’t wait for visitors to experience first-hand some of the iconic moments from Season 4 in what will be the biggest, most exciting and frightening ‘Walking Dead’ maze to date.”
Universal Orlando’s maze will be the largest maze ever created at Halloween Horror Nights. It is double the experience and will feature more scareactors in one single haunted house than ever before. Guests will encounter iconic scenes from Season 4 of the hit show. Beginning at the prison, fans will enter the cell block where the infection began, escape into the massive Big Spot location with a crashed helicopter ripping through its ceiling and journey to the dilapidated country club overrun with walkers. These and other immersive environments culminate to the maze’s finale taking you to the End of the Line – Terminus. This year’s maze will be an entirely new experience, featuring never-before–seen walkers and brand new scares.
