re_upcrazy78 Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 This years Florida Halloween events were terrific. Started off at Busch Gardens Tampa Howl-O-Scream on Friday the 13th. I went with my roommate, we bought tickets online a month ago. We opted for the Haunted tour, complete with a "Ghoul Guide." If you have never been to this event before, I highly recommend getting the haunted tour. 20 people were supposed to be in our group, and only 8 of us actually showed up, so it wasn't to big. We got front row seating for the shows. And then went straight through to the haunted attractions with no wait. The haunted attractions were very well done, complete with tons of fog and scary noises in the background. The only thing I was bummed about is that the guided tour didn't come with fastpass access to the rides after the tour. They sell booklets at the opening of the park where you can go on each walk through house and coaster ride with no wait. But, they were sold out when we got there. Oh well, better luck next year. Halloween Horror Nights 16 @ Universal studios Orlando..... Went with a roommate and 2 other friends. I went the weekend prior, so I knew my way around. Had the fastpass once again, and like I said before, it was well worth the money. No more than 15 minute wait on all 7 haunted attractions. Bill and Ted's show is awesome, and it plays 7 times a night. They did change it this week, you couldn't get front access to the Bill and ted's show like you could last week. There were alot of people upset about that, but really every seat is a good one anyway. Until next year Biker chicks rock Nice harleys The bad girls Right this way What's the word? You can't hide Again this year Is it wrong to be attracted to the un-dead? You won't find this attention to detail anywhere else Nice float Just look up for directions Bill and Ted Didn't look real... Until it moved big crowd tonight Voice and all This guy is dead on scary Just in case you didn't know where you were Welcome Yes ma'am, you can do anything you would like to me HARD ROCK cafe.... Great place for dinner Time for HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS The HUNTED Wow, nice fro Hey, whats up Sorry, running out of pictures to post Watch all around Oops, my bad What is this? Talking headstones, cracking jokes all night CLUB MUSE, part of After Hours Lots of houses this year 3rd Dementia... Very trippy. One more shot They have these sound stages set up all over the park.

Each year I go to both, and I always have favored halloween horror nights. But, this year I think Howl-O-Scream is a bit better. The walkthroughs are just more intricate, and don't seem as packed. However, the Bill and Ted show blows everything else out of the water, and it's not like the houses are bad at Halloween Horror nights by any means, I just think they could be a bit better.

So I can't judge. I heard the new house was really good and it was one of the best of the year. Also, I wish they would have expanded the Scarezones for HHN since they have put it in Universal.

I agree about more scarezones. Since they compacted it to just universal this year, they should put more stuff up. The only thing I can think of is that they are trying to save money by not hiring more actors this year. from what I am told, they don't really make much money at these things, they just do it to get the exposure because this time of year can be kind of slow.
Chase Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 Oh, I see what your saying. Well anyways just PM me if you want, I might be getting a HHN Fansite soon with Forums.
