Official 2022 HHN 31 - Horror is Universal

[FoxC63]

Newbie to this event. Can anyone tell me how quickly a single night (mid October/mid-week) tix will sell out? Should we be buying these right now or can we wait a bit?

I'm not so sure I'd be concerned about it selling out but rather the prices increasing and increasing which happened last year. If you can afford to buy them now, don't hesitate. Even if you need 4 or 5, buy what you can to lock in the low price.

Thanks! I didn't know they changed the prices once they released them!

Yes unfortunately they do and it caught us off guard.

EEK, I am so excited!! Just booked Sapphire Falls for my son and I. This will be our 3rd trip for HHN, started going for my sons 16th birthday. You guys said we would be hooked after the 1st time and you were so right. Also first time at Sapphire Falls. Usually stay at RP but couldn't make it work for our dates. Can't wait for announcements to start rolling out. I appreciate everyone so much for the time you all take to answer questions and keep the excitement going!!
We have only gone during the first few weeks, will be going later this year. Will have to study how the tickets work, have gotten rush of fear with express the other times. Will want express for sure. Should be able to make it for 9 nights of HHN...but still want express LOL.

They were released really late last year. However, I think single day tickets are being released kind of early this year. Pre-covid, I thought the BOGO tickets were usually released in April or May. They weren't release last year. I thought single day tickets were released just before the BOGO expired. Multi-day tickets were not usually released until at least June, after the BOGO expired. So, I would expect them to be released sometime this summer.



Not yet.

Thanks

They were waiting for the arrival of Jack..

Great pics! It’s fun to watch the crowds from that 2nd floor veranda. Have taken great pains to avoid being in that throng.

Last year, had to chuckle watching how fast Jack took off after the opening ceremonies one night.

Fully escorted by security but, still surprised how fast he did move to not encounter rabid fans…yes, I couldn’t resist saying hello here.

considering doing this before our Disney cruise. What would be a better night to go, Thursday 9/15 or Sunday 9/18? Probably 6 of one, half dozen of another. lol

I'm still a newbie but I would say Thursday is your best bet.

Big grain of salt this early, which I know it is frustrating when some of us are also giving suggestions to book as early as possible. As of today, the single-day ticket price is the same for both of those days (it's a push). Then I checked the RIP prices, and the 9/18 prices are currently $20 less than 9/15 (advantage to 9/18). When Express Passes are released that's an even better indicator of which nights are expected to be busier (of course the more people they expect, the more the passes will cost). Based solely on that info, I would lean toward 9/18. That could completely change by the time September gets here though. If you only have the one night (which I'll always say is much better than no nights), then the regular strategies are recommended for either night: Stay and Scream if you have day tickets, Express Pass or RIP tour if you want to make sure you see all houses (and have the room in your budget for the event), have a priority list, be ready to put a lot of steps on your feet, and of course, have fun!

Hey Rachel!!!

You have been missed!!!

Yes, this year will be a busy one for sure......we`ll be there too in September and if the line up for the houses impresses us, we`ll be buying the RoF as usual with EP included. If the line up disappoints, last years didn`t impress me at all, then we may just go one or two nights.

Good to see you though.......

Sorry for the slow reply, seems I locked myself out of my account, I couldn't figure out why I couldn't like or reply, this year I'm going with a complete newbie my best friend. She's never been to Orlando, never been to Disney, never been to USO and never been to HHN! So she's going to have a shock coming! I hope she loves it.

Wow....that is a lot of new experiences for her on a first visit!!! She`ll love it......

Happy planning for both of you!!

@FoxC63 and @imprint - thank you for your input! I will probably go with the Sunday night option only because we fly in on the Thursday.

That's an important detail. I agree, we don't like all that rushing around not to mention the possibility of flights being delayed or cancelled or having your luggage lost. You made a wise decision.

Yesterday when booking the RIP Private tour I asked the team member Kirk, three times about BOGO, like when will it be released, is it going to be released and so on. Well, he never budged, simply wouldn't spill the beans.

So I asked him again today.... NOTHING! So tight lipped!
I'm trying!

 

[FoxC63]

Oh, almost forgot to mention!
Universal had an unadvertised promotion this morning, the first 31 callers wanting to buy HHN tickets, received them at 31% off! Any dated ticket too. It was crazy! I was in panic, hoarding mode but you could only buy one ticket. What a great start to a new month, you know April 1st....as in April Fools!

Did I get ya?!

 

[MinnieMSue]

Idk if it is just my phone but I was looking at rip and unmasking the horror and could not select any days for tickets. The whole HHN time period is unavailable today. In the app they aren’t listed as an option at all. Might just be my phone but I thought it was odd. I already have event tickets and a 6 house tour booked but was just looking at the site. (And for the record I’m not an April fools person and this would not be a good joke anyway lol).

@keishashadow was having problems too on her iPhone. Are you using an iPhone? I think the website on a computer and Android are fine. Try a computer. I didn't see any issues with it.

For the record, I didn't post it for you.

We are hoping to attend our first ever HHN and are at Portofino Bay over opening weekend. I booked the public RIP tour for Saturday 3rd September but I see it is now being offered on the Sunday as well at a cheaper price than the Saturday. I have no experience of HHN at all but would assume the Saturday would be busier than the Sunday and therefore if we were to end up getting tickets that allowed us to go Saturday and Sunday we would probably have a better time doing our second visit on the Sunday

I see we have no idea about BOGOF tickets yet, do frequent fear tickets allow access over one weekend and are they much more expensive than one night tickets? Just trying to work out how likely it is that we would be able to go twice that weekend or whether just to go for the Sunday night tour and save some money
