Halloween Horror Nights 2025 (USH) - News & General Discussion

[Jake S]

we actually found the five nights at freddy’s queue management to be quite bad, too. signs directed everyone to the left of transformers — but that’s where express enters. employees directed us back past transformers, which leads you to the entrance to scarecrow.

the entrance was through the transformers queue, which feels like something that a) should have clear signage and b) everyone working should know by the fourth night of the event.

Whoa wait, they changed it??? When I went opening night, the entrance was where it was posted, which was left of Transformers.

That's something I noticed this year. I had NO idea where I was going for ANY maze. I literally just guessed because the signs were so unclear. I definitely went the wrong direction more than a few times. Sometimes it felt like wandering in the dark until randomly an "Express" sign with an arrow popped up and I'd be like "aw thank God, so the line IS here." But then I'd look around for any other signs for GA and there'd be nothing. It's like no matter what ticket you had, you were SOL on finding your way lol also to make matters worse, some of the lines blended into one at some point. Transformers/Freddys, Jurassic/Wyatt, Jason Universe/Wyatt somehow also clash, very unclear signage once you get down to the queue areas for Scarecrow, Terrifier, Poltergeist, and Monstruous. I think the only maze I knew exactly where I was going was Fallout.

I love they did the 5 PM opening but...wish they would communicate like sending out an email to all who bought those tickets and inform them on changes would be appreciated . Its a great change but just asking for more communication since these are extra paid for tickets

Anyway got back, went 4 days in a row...a first for me and my feet hurt so much, lol

But worth it, Art the Clown and Hikoma are both such great icons

Love the Purge show I've seen it 3 times so far and twice in one night and still had a blast year time its a well paced, action packed show and the little fireworks at the end are appreciated

Too tired to write all my thoughts but easily my favorite HHN yet

Terriffier, FNAF and Scarecrow are my top 3 currently and I think Blumhouse might be 4th....it has so many fun scares now with Insidious and Black phone plus exeroist is fun.

Last note the grabber was at the Blumhouse end of ride photo op tonight

Post Terror Tram closing crush for Monstruos. I do wonder...did we over estimate Fallout's popularity? I feel like that and Wyatt are consistently the lowest wait times.

 

[Jake S]

Monstrous 3 - 65 min (That’s surprising!)

i just waited 15 minutes with a posted 65 minute wait. someone fell asleep over there.

 

[Jerroddragon]

Yeah app is so wrong many times

Sometimes is about right but other times people get in line thats saw 2 hours and its 45 mins

Blumhouse jumped from no wait to 20 mins...took maybe 10 mins to get on so I feel like they are inflating times just in case something happens with Ops or too many express/RIP people come


Also The Witches mini show did not happen at 9 PM last year.....so yeah if your trying to see the show its hit or miss at least for me

Minor updates:

• The mini Hamikuma keychain plush sold out last night. But a team member said that a larger Hamikuma plush is on its way, but unknown when it will arrive.
• Hamikuma appears in the Animation store only from 8pm - 9:30pm on the half hour

Oof, I have a RIP tour at 6:10. Guess we probably won't be seeing Hamikuma.

With the caveat that things can change, my understanding is he's been coming out earlier, too. He seemed to come out during day ops at 5:30, and then he came out again at 6 (when I met him).

He comes out at 4 and 5 PM or at least he did the last 4 days

So if you can get into the park by 5 then you should be good

This is great info, thanks! We didn't have much of a plan before checking in, so this will work perfect.

For those wondering, by the way - I know I saw at least one person asking at one point - RIP tour guests are permitted to continue using the RIP queues, even without their guide. This was explicitly emphasized to us at the start of the tour.
