Halloween Horror Nights Review
The mazes were aMAZing (heh heh), but i had to give them an "F" on park access. When you pay 4-5 times a normal ticket for a supposed "VIP" experience you should not have to push through a crowd of gen admin people waiting just to get to your tiny little line in the MIDDLE of everything. It should be off to the side and easily accessible.
For the last 3 years we also got private backlot tours. Last year's was especially fun, as they had people and props scaring us. This year we were driven around a bit, but no stops. That was disappointing.
The mazes were top-notch, as usual. An American Werewolf in London was a great retro maze, featuring scenes from the iconic movie. Alien vs Predator was cool - a crashed spaceship is your entrance into a terrifying experience where you could be killed by either species (well, not really, but it was fun).
On a comical note, the bar entrance in the From Dusk til Dawn maze was called The Twister, not The Titty Twister, like it was in the movie - too many kids. Oh my, they have no access to sexually-themed materials, so we'd better not mention anything like titties...
On a good note, they dumped the lame-ass Bill and Ted's Excellent Misadventure through Time, which was basically a politically-correct bullshit fest. They also filled the House of Horrors with excellent masks and make-up via FaceOff - the SyFy show.
So I give it an 8 out of 10. It should have been 10+ but the horrible VIP line access and the lack of back lot tour blew it.
