Official confirmation of house locations/a map showing the locations of the entrance portal to each house.I'm a little confused about what people are expecting here. What info is everyone expecting from a "full drop"? We know all but one zone, all of the houses, and the show. The only things up in the air are an official Blum announcement, details around bars/meet and greets (which aren't typically in a "full drop" anyway), and icon deets (which they've shied away from in the past).
I just feel like they've already dropped in full. It just wasn't a big dump this year like in the past.
Speaking of maps, I wish they would do paper maps for HHN. I loved being one home with me and adding it to my collection. With them getting rid of paper maps in January, I sadly don’t expect any.Official confirmation of house locations/a map showing the locations of the entrance portal to each house.
Yeah I have a collection for the 9 years I’ve been going. I didn’t realize Universal axed paper maps this year.Speaking of maps, I wish they would do paper maps for HHN.

I get why they axed them but I wish we could still get them. I went on Amazon and bought maps for HHN 16-22(years I didn’t go) so I now have HHN maps for 16-32.Yeah I have a collection for the 9 years I’ve been going. I didn’t realize Universal axed paper maps this year.![]()
Hahaha.Not to beat the merch horse to death, but I have only ever bought lil boo and trick r treat HHN merch. Hat, sweatshirt, sippers, tees. I haven't and probably wouldn't buy other stuff. 31/"traditional" halloween themed stuff was right up my alley.
I realize I'm nowhere near a core demographic, but I guess there is a chunk of us out there very excited about repping our cute pumpkin gear as we trek from creepy house to gory house to demon house and so on![]()
So close.
Finally!! And 6 house is also announced! Looks like AQP is the odd house this year.
San Fran was my favorite S&S last year. Comfortably sit at a table with umbrella, mobile order food and drink. No stress or crammed together sitting/standing in the sun. After Chucky went to back of the park and knocked out 2-3 more houses that already mostly cleared their S&S with little/no wait. Had Express so wasn't worried about the headliners up front.Sorry if this is the wrong thread for this, didn’t see the Tips and Tricks one yet...
I’m SPECULATING… on the best way to attack this year. Normally I do two nights, no express. This year, I decided on one night with express. My gut was telling me Springfield S&S would probably be the best option which could allow for a run through of SS2 and Museum t least without even using express. So then I’d get a second run through of those houses with my express later. I feel as though I’m probably going to want a second run through SS2 and Major Sweets. Don’t really want to do the SF S&S for mainly just Sweets.
RelatableEvery year we consider trying a new S&S, and yet every year we end up in NY lol
Doable, but I'd also note that Universal doesn't open the F&F house until the rest of the park opens unlike the NY/Springfield S&S. So while you can still get ahead of the masses outside the gates, you can theoretically knock out 1-2 NY houses then head to F&F, and then to the back of the park during the same time.Relatable
I do second @Captain Spaulding ’s suggestion that it’s definitely doable to knock out the San Fran S&S house and then pivot to the back couple (now four) tents before the crowds really make it back there.
Then you have the bulk of the night left to check out zones or deal with the other 5 house waits.
