Welcome to our 4 part video series where we cover all of HHN at Universal Studios with the rest in peace tour. 

Part 1

Halloween time is my favorite time of the day. Join me on this journey has I go through the mazes at Universal Studios Hollywood for their annual event of Halloween Horror Nights. In this vlog we start with an introduction to the “Rest In Peace Tour” with a guide, customer service and a few of the mazes. We check out the Terror Tram, Holidays in Hell, The First Purge, Poltergeist and the Blum House (Unfriended and Truth or Dare) Mazes.

Part 2

In this vlog we continue with the “Rest In Peace Tour” with a guide, customer service and a few of the mazes. We check out the Halloween 4 where you will love how many times I scream lets say its over 20.

We went to AMC’s The Walking Dead but you can’t film in there. For me this is the only one that I didn’t really like. This attraction is the same every year as this is a standing day and night attraction. Nothing had changed in this from the last year. Also with all the mazes we were allowed to film in this one we were not allowed to. I don’t know if that is an AMC reasoning or because this is a standing event.

Universal Classic Monsters was a great one where we saw The Wolfman, Frankenstein and Dracula. This was a well put together maze.

Trick R Treat a cult classic, I guess. I had never seen the movie so to me this was just a “scary haunted house” with a good setup. I would recommend that you make sure you watch all the movies that Halloween Horror Nights has to offer.

Last but not least we go into Stranger Things. This was the main maze and what was the big promotion for the year. This was a good one and again highly recommend you watch the show if you were going to this maze. If you had not see the show on Netflix then it might not have been good and you wouldn’t have understood why the layout of the maze was the way it well was. I was expecting just a little more with this because in the show they have some amazing special affects and this was leading up to it and then it was over.

Part 3

This is how we ended our journey last year with Halloween Horror Nights and how we ended this year. Front and center this time. Great Seats! The Jabbawockeez is a dance crew that has expanded. The best thing I think about this is they were mask. I love mask at halloween, I love the movie with Jim Carry, wait back on topic. I also love the marketing and business side of this business. They can have multiple dancers and multiple shows in multiple cities because you never know who is behind the mask.

The Jabbawockeez were not the first to come up with this concept. I first remember seeing the Blue Man Group but even before that the Aquabats, just check them out.

Part 4 

This is my personal review of the entire event with Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights Rest in Peace Tour (try saying that 10 times fast). We talk about valet parking, the meals, drinks, customer service, lounges, tour guide taking you around everywhere, front of the line passes, adult beverages. If you do not do front of the line passes you will not make it to all the mazes, you won’t have enough time. Scare count Michelle 28 vs Steve 75 Also in this video you will see our heart rates before and after every maze.
