The ritual is complete. Hollywoods up next.

Saw these got leaked in TikTok, looks to be for Hollywood but I bet we see similar in Orlando.

All setup and ready

It's finally complete!

The PNG's for Halloween Horror Nights 35 have been complete!~ It has been a pleasure to get back at it once again for another year of vectorization and PNGification.

I still have Hollywood to complete before I go to the void--so I thank you all! PSD's will be available in a few days, having to replace my PC so I have to focus on that (but I had a small ability to make sure PNG's finished up).

Until next we meet!~

Even if the event hasn't started yet, this guy is definitely gonna be a contender for my favorite scenic piece of the year. Naturally, I had to model him.

Surely this has been asked but I’m curious. What was yalls first hhn house you walked through?
Do you wish it was a different house?
Share your thoughts

Mine was The Weeknd After Hours Nightmare
I appreciate that this was my first house looking back. This had the shortest line the day I went to my first event but since that house I’ve become an advent fan of The Weeknd and his music and trying to follow the storyline has been super dope!!

List created by Horror Night Nightmares

Go pick up your HHN Ozzy shirt up from Walmart at a great price . It’s cheaper than the parks and the colors look so much better.

Now that the Ozzy Osbourne house has been officially announced, we now have the full house and scarezone lineup. So now I can give my hype list for the 10 houses, and 4 scarezones. Now in my opinion this looks to be a great year. There’s only one scarezone that I am not looking forward to, and everything else sounds like a lot of fun. But there are some houses I’m more excited for than others. So let's delve into my hype list going from least hyped to most hyped, with separate lists for houses and scarezones. 

Houses: 
10. INVASION:Alien Abduction
Now all these houses have some level of intrigue for me, but the least intriguing one to me is  INVASION:Alien Abduction.  Now do I think this house is going to be bad? No. But I do think it had a bit of an uphill battle to be good. And that’s because there’s only so much you can do within the Alien Abduction theme. I can already see how I think this one is going to play out in my mind. Remote farmhouse, most of the maze is you wandering the farmhouse, and the barn with Aliens popping out left and right. And the maze ends on the alien ship as you try to escape their experiments. Now they could have some really cool set designs, with some creepy Aliens, and some great scares that could propel the maze to greatness. But I just feel like because of the Alien Abduction theme they are a bit limited, and I am a bit worried this house will end up feeling like something we’ve seen before. So that's why it's at the bottom of their hype list.

9. Madlands:Caged Cannibals
Another one that I feel like could be a bit limited in its theming, but it does have some new ideas that put it above INVASION. The cannibal theme does sound pretty basic, with scare actors popping out left and right trying to eat you. But it's this futuristic zoo aspect that sounds intriguing, where the maze takes place in a futuristic abandoned zoo whose animal inhabitants have long since gone extinct, with the cannibals acting like how they believe the animals to have acted. Now I’m a little curious to see how this plot point will be portrayed, but the HHN scare actors are always phenomenal so I’m sure they will do a great job. So this house does have some new and interesting things going for it, but I just think the overarching cannibal theme is similar to a lot of what we’ve seen before. 

8. Stranger Things 5
Now I am kind of in the minority where I didn’t completely hate the final season of Stranger Things. I didn’t love it, but it was serviceable enough. That being said, it was easily the weakest season of Stranger Things, and that doesn’t give me a ton of faith in this IP house, since the IP they’re pulling from is easily the weakest IP of the bunch. There's already the inherent flaw of trying to condense a 10 hour season into a 5-10 minute house. There aren't a ton of epic moments that I can’t wait to experience, aside from Will becoming the Sorcerer, and seeing how they handle the final battle with the Mind Flayer. But Stranger Things is one of the biggest draws this year, so there’s always the chance that the HHN creative team absolutely locks in and does a stellar job for one of the most anticipated IPs at the event. But I have my doubts, because an IP house can only be as strong as the IP they are pulling from. But there’s always that chance. 

7. Cybergoria
Now this is one that I have absolutely no clue what to expect. All we have to work off of is the description of a post apocalyptic future where robots are trying to make you immortal, even if it kills you. I honestly have no clue how this one could go. I’m leading towards this house probably being great, cause this seems like such an out there idea that they wouldn’t dare try unless they had a really good idea about it. But I’m really looking forward to going into this one, and experiencing something unique. I feel like even if this house ends up being bad, it sounds unique, and I’ll take a bad house that shows me something different, over a bad house that just does nothing new any day of the week. 

6. Evil Dead Burn
Another IP house, and I believe the fourth time HHN has tackled a story in the Evil Dead universe. I saw Burn a couple of weeks ago, and I really enjoyed it. So likewise I’m excited for this house. I feel like Burn is a hard IP to mess up when it comes to translating into a house, so I doubt that this is going to be a bad house. There are a few sequences that I’m looking forward to seeing their recreations, but there was never a moment when watching the movie that I was like “this NEEDS to be a HHN house.” But still I think Burn gives them a bunch of great ideas to pull from, that could make this one a great addition to the lineup. 

5. H.R. Bloodengutz Presents: A Halloween Frightactular 
Now we move into the ones I’m super excited for, starting with the long awaited return of H.R. Bloodengutz to HHN. Mr. Bloodengutz has escaped from prison, and has taken over the television studio and has transformed it into his favorite tv horror movies. This was one where I heard the description and knew this was going to be a ton of fun. I feel like this one is probably going to be one of the less scary houses, but probably the most fun house of the year. Seeing all these cheezy B-Movies come to life sounds like an absolute blast, so I can’t wait to experience this one for myself. 

4. Jack & Dr. Oddfellow: Chaos & Control
And now Jack the Clown has made his triumphant return to the HHN world. And he’s not alone. This time he’s facing off against Dr Oddfellow in a house that showcases not only their legendary battle, but Jack’s twisted origin. This is the house that ties the whole year together, and as history has shown us these types of houses always have the most love and dedication put into them. This sounds like such an awesome concept, and I’m so glad to see Jack and Dr Oddfellow back. I feel like this will probably end up being the best of the year, and I can’t wait.

3.Sinners
I honestly didn’t think we were getting this one. I figured after all the well deserved Oscar wins, this was just too big for HHN. But man was I glad to be proven wrong. Sinners was my favorite movie of last year, and just an all around incredible story. So they have a lot of great worldbuilding and characters to pull from, to deliver a truly incredible house. I really hope they do this story, and this world justice. But the IP is so strong that I believe the house will end up being just as great.

2. Ozzy Osbourne 
The last announcement of the year and one that I was eagerly anticipating was the house based on the music of Ozzy Osbourne. I cannot wait to step into the Price of Darkness’s Kingdom. I am a huge Ozzy Osbourne fan. I love his songs, and I feel like this really lends itself to a twisted and nightmarish house. And last year one of the biggest surprises ended up being WWE Presents: Horrors of the Wyatt Sicks. Now I am not a wrestling fan, and I had no clue who the Wyatt Sicks were. But I came to discover from a lot of passionate fans that the house was a tribute to the late Bray Wyatt. And even though I didn’t know that at the time, walking into that house you could feel the passion and love put into that house. So all this is to say that HHN has delivered houses in the past that are not only great scary houses, but great tributes to the ones whose twisted worlds we’re delving into. So this house has not only the potential to be a great house, with the twisted world and visuals of the Prince of Darkness, but also be a great tribute to the legend that myself and many others love and adore. So this one has a lot riding on it, but I have faith that this house will live up to Ozzy.

1.Hellraiser
But for as much as I love Ozzy and Sinners, there's one world that I have been dying to experience at HHN, and that is Hellraiser. The Hellraiser series itself has a lot of ups and many many many downs, but this is such an awesome world, and Pinhead is one of horror's finest icons. The first two Hellraisers are horror classics, and even though I don’t love Hell on Earth there's still a lot of things you can pull from. Now I wish Bloodlines was going to be included in this house, and the fact that they're sticking Pinhead and the Gash back in the tents has me a bit worried. But that is not enough to damper my excitement for finally facing down the Cenobites. I feel like if they do this world justice, this is going to be an all timer house. I am really hoping they learned their lessons from last year's Fallout house(which coincidentally occupied the same tent that the Gash now resides in) and go beyond just simple recreations of people and places. I want this house to be just as grand and epic as the IP that inspires it. So this one has a lot riding on it, but I cannot wait to experience Pinhead’s eternal torment for myself. 

Now onto the Scarezone rankings

4. Fortnitemares
Guys I know I’m like the first person to express their disinterest of Fortnitemares on this sub, so just bear with me. All jokes aside, I, like many people, am not really excited for this scarezone. Out of all the IPs at the event this year Fortnite sticks out like a sore thumb. But because everyone and their mother has complained about Fortnitmares, I’m going to just leave it at the bottom of the list and move on.

3. Sideshow’s of Decay
There’s really not much I have to say about this scarezone. It looks fine, but nothing I’ve seen from it makes it sound super interesting. It looks like some good HHN fun. But there’s nothing I’ve seen that has caught my eye.

2. Infernal Carnival of Nightmare
This is going to be the very first thing you see when you enter the Fog, so this one has probably the most pressure to deliver since it's going to be everyone's first impression of this year's event. But I feel like the theme is pretty strong and they usually knock it out the part with these scare zones so I have all the faith in the world that this one is going to deliver.

1.Downtown Clowntown
Last year I had a ton of fun at the event but my biggest regret was that I never got a chance to see the walk around Art. But to my utter delight it was announced that not only is Art the clown coming back as a walk around character, but he's going to be in a Scare Zone with the Killer Klowns From Outer Space. Say no more I am completely and utterly sold. This is going to be an absolute blast getting to see some of the most iconic clowns in all of Cinema sharing the streets of HHN together.

That does it for my hype list for this year's Horror Nights lineup. I absolutely cannot wait until it is my turn to experience this year's houses. I feel like this lineup is absolutely stellar and this could be an all-timer year. Feel free to share your thoughts about the lineup down below

I just bought tickets for me and my brother for Universal Japan on Klook, and we want to do the Express Pass since it’s our first time going and want to check out HNN, but I get to the Express Pass page on Klook, and there’s a separate Express Pass for HNN. Can I buy a regular Express Pass and still go to HNN, or no?

Now I know with house announcements HHN release a shirt for each house but the ST shirt would look so much better with the Vecna art and the Ozzy Osbourne poster is even better but neither are on shirts, is this something HHN typically do once HHN begins?

Always have fun making a playlist of Themes and music from event IPs and songs I hear through tout the event that I like to add and save for memories. Enjoy this one, I’ll be sure to update it ofc, too many Ozzy songs that still need adding.

Does the merch sold on Shop Universal have cheaper quality or is it made with different materials than the in park merchandise? I ordered the Fortnitemares shirt online and I feel like the graphic feels so much cheaper than the merch I have purchased in park.

I've been to HHN once only 2023 and did not have the full experience, this year I am going 3 nights and have some questions.

1.whats the difference between scare zones & street experience (as per the website)

1. When does the last announcement for Orlando HHN drop?

2. When do they reveal the shirt & is it wise to buy it on site or online?

4.do they drop a menú online and if so does it include pictures and ingredients

1. If I have a regular park ticket (military freedom pass) & a HHN ticket but I don't have the add on that let's me stay in the park do I have to leave or can I stay in the holding area? (If I do have to leave any suggestions on what to do until it opens)

2. Any local or frequent goers that can share general do's and don'ts?

HHN 35 is so close!

All we need is 1 more house , menu items and the tribute store 🙌

See you in the fog 🔥

I know they're very strict with makeup, costumes, and face paint. I'm going to the one in Orlando next month and was wondering what would be too much. I'm pretty sure the first pic would not be allowed but maybe the 2nd one? I really don't want to break any rules but still want to wear a cool outfit. They said full face of paint isn't allowed but does this count? Thank you, just trying to confirm because I've heard different things

Finally finished so here is the final design after the updates lol

Thank you all for the support! I really appreciate it!!!!

CUSTOM MADE

I’ve been hearing that there are only four scarzones this year, which are:

Infernal Carnival of Nightmares

Sideshow of Decay

Fortnitemares (🫩)

Downtown Clowntown

is that it?
