Universal Studios Hollywood Update: Grinchmas, HHN, Super Nintendo World and More - November 7, 2022

2023 Attractions Grinchmas Mario Kart: Bowsers Challenge Super Nintendo World Toothsome Chocolate Emporium Universal Citywalk Universal Studios Hollywood

For the first time in a few months we headed out to Universal Studios Hollywood for a general update and had a great morning at the park.

Lots of pics and video of Super Nintendo World, Christmas prep and HHN take-down.

There's a lot to get into, so let's get into it!

Welcome to Universal Studios Hollywood! Be sure to check out the video below.

Halloween is now gone from New York Street!

Christmas has already arrived in Pet's Place

Honestly, I'm ready for it!

Some of HHN still exists, but probably won't be here for very long

A lonely clown all wrapped up to be preserved. Wonder if Killer Clowns will end up somewhere else someday.

I wonder if Gene Green ever found his dog ...

Alright, let's move onto Super Nintendo World

It's looking amazing, we can't wait!

The new Universal Campus is coming along (sorry, I had a brain fart in the video)

For some reason, some of the soundstage covering looks very "Yoshi's Island"

From on the lower lot on the Studio Tour

Looks like some queue or perhaps a break room?

The sign is up!! It's actually happening!

They were doing some work in between Jurassic Café and the restrooms. Perhaps an exit for the land?

Wonder if they're going to do more covering of the Transformers building, hope so

Bowsers Castle iv> A close up view of the sign Hey there Monster, let's go look at some merchandise!! As of last Friday, all HHN merchandise was 90% off, there wasn't much left and there is probably less now Let's check out the Universal Studio Store. Most of the Holiday merch is similar to the last couple of years. But did see some awesome UniVrsl store merch. Really not sure why this is still here. Aren't there 2 other LA football teams? Hasn't this team moved twice since they were in LA? Weird that this is one of very few opening day stores that are still here. Lastly, let's look at Toothsome! It's looking absolutely fantastic and can't wait for it's 2023 opening! Some similarities to Orlando, but enough differences to make it unique!

HALL OF YULETIDE SPIRITS RETURNS TO SEASON’S SCREAMINGS FEATURING TWISTED HAUNTS AND DISPLAYS DECEMBER 2-4
Midsummer Scream’s Spooky Holiday Convention Haunts the Halls of Pasadena Convention Center Once Again with Ho-Ho-Horrific Mazes, Swirling Fog, Evil Elves and Thrills for All – Passes Now on Sale!

PASADENA, CA – Season’s Screamings, the sinister holiday-themed counterpart to Midsummer Scream, the world’s largest Halloween and horror convention, announces the return of its Hall of Yuletide Spirits, featuring an exciting lineup of twisted attractions from some of the most creative and talented haunters in Southern California! Passes are now on sale at www.MidsummerScream.org.

Guests will enter the completely darkened Hall of Yuletide Spirits through an elaborate display created by Fear Farm Haunt (from Phelan) called “The North-ish Pole”, where it’s always Christmas Eve-il as sinister elves hide behind smashed presents, candy rots and drips off sickly-sweet buildings, and twisted toys wait to be delivered to unsuspecting boys and girls around the world where they will spread holiday fear! Beware the Gingerbread Man!

Once inside the Hall of Yuletide Spirits, guests will have their pick of haunts and displays to explore including:

Holiday Nightmare from the Dreich Society (Ontario), a mashup of their summer and Halloween Japanese-themed maze with a Christmas twist; The Haunt With No Name… Yet (Tarzana) will present a beautiful cemetery vignette featuring Christmas spiders that have gifted a poor family with beautiful webs for their tree; Casa Calaveras: Holiday Fiesta (Orange County) is a delightful walk-through experience for the whole family that celebrates the most joyous season with José and Gloria the happy DEAD couple in eye-popping festive color under blacklight; Santa Ana Haunt (Santa Ana) returns with its “Santa’s Naughty List” experience, where guests can walk through the North Pole’s jailhouse, to see who’s been very bad this year; Ghostwood Manor (Pasadena) home haunt makes its debut at a Season’s Screamings with “Pharaoh’s Hall”, a beautiful-yet-creepy walk-through of an ancient Egyptian tomb; the Pizza Planet Truck returns, and the poor delivery driver is under attack as “Gremlins Take Over!” offering a fun-filled photo op created in partnership with Art’s Sideshow; Prism Haunted House (Westminster) has created a creepy display called “Milk & Cookies”, revealing how Dr. Sanguine leaves Santa treats in his twisted laboratory; Valley Fright Nights (Woodland Hills) will leave guests screaming as they present “Freak Show”, a wild walk-through experience that isn’t clowning around… in thrilling 3D!

Those who want to socialize with friends while visiting the Hall are welcome to hang out at Barlow’s Tavern, where they can interact with Mr. Floats, enjoy signature cocktails and mocktails from the bar, and even take their picture with Santa Barlow, fresh from his coffin in ‘Salem’s Lot!

“This is the second year we’ve held Season’s Screamings at the Pasadena Convention Center, and we’re really excited to bring back the Hall of Yuletide Spirits as a cornerstone of the event,” says Rick West, Co-Founder and Creative Director of Midsummer Scream. “The show is at the beginning of December this time around, which was extra challenging for all the haunters participating; not only did they have their own events and attractions to tend to during the Halloween season, but they’ve also been planning for Season’s Screamings as well. Absolutely no rest for the wicked! We are incredibly grateful for their tireless work and amazing efforts. Fans of all ages are going to love what’s in store for this season’s Hall!”

Single day and weekend passes are available; premium weekend “Naughty List” passes include one hour show entry on Saturday and Sunday, priority entry to panels, presentations, and attractions, an exclusive lanyard, and a limited-edition commemorative collectible (TBA).

Hall of Yuletide Spirits will be open December 2-4 during Season’s Screaming’s posted hours of operation, including early access Saturday and Sunday for all Naughty List passholders.
