Halloween Horror Nighst have become very popular over the years and is now a well and trully major event at Universal Studios. It has been held at both Univesal Studios and Islands of Adventure in the past.
One thing I can sayis, it is definately not for kids! Or those of a nervous disposition. Many people don't like it and would not go again others, love it and can't wait till they get to go once again.
They dim down the lights and in some places it is very dark. There are people with chainsaws jumping out at you through the dark and smoke, others creep up on you and whisper in your ear.
The haunted houses, there are about 7 of them, have long lines most of the time but you can by a fast pass for around $70!! Called a front of line pass. If you don't have something like this you can expect to wait up to 2hrs to get it some of the houses. Many people complain that there are groups of younger guests that are drunk and a bit out of control too.
I myself thought it was a good laugh and worth doing but wouldn't go again unless it was with someone that hadn't been and wanted to go. The dates this year are:
Sept 26 - 27
Oct 2 - 5, 9 -12, 16 - 19, 22 - 26, & 29 -31
Nov 1
Normal ticket price $69.99 plus tax. Or you can go for the Frequent Fear Pass at the same price and go as many times as you wish except for a few selected dates and the 31st Oct.
