I will be going to both IOA, USO, and HHN between Thurs Oct 12 to Sun Oct 15. How are the crowds on these days for all the parks? Is the specific days I should go to any of these? May do the the deal of IOA and USO 1 day combined then HHN another night. Will I need fast passes for any? Would like to ride and see everything! Any tips/strategies?

Unless you are a local and can go several times to HHN, I would NOT recommend going without express passes. The lines will be insane and you'll spend most of your time waiting in gigantic claustrophobic queues with thousands of people.

Even on non weekend days like Thurs or Fri night? How are the crowds at IOA On weekdays and weekends?

For Horror Nights yes, even on non weekend days. Those last couple weeks of October, you're probably looking at 45-60 minutes for most mazes, 120 minutes for the most popular mazes.

I got my tickets for this year so I am ready to go. I am now on a once every three year cycle. Like Robb said, if you are only going for one night you must get Express passes, otherwise you will be spending most of the night waiting in queues. That makes it impossible to see everything.

So sad we didn't get to make it out to HHN this year. We are hoping to be able to make it out there next year, if not then 2019 at the LATEST.

As always the mazes look a-MAZE-ing!! Thanks for all the great, and continuous coverage Robb!! :)
