Labor Day at Unviersal Studios Hollywood and HHN Update

Picture
Today it's time to take a look at the goings on at Universal Studios Hollywood as they prepare for Halloween Horror Nights which begins in just, wait, 9 days? Wow. 
It was an absolutely gorgeous weekend in Southern California (VERY fall-like, well for us) so we'll also share some pictures of the park courtesy of Matt.

What better way to start off a Universal Studios Hollywood update than in Hogsmeade? 
Picture
I'm not an Owl ... 
Picture
No sign of Yakko, Wakko and Dot ... 
Picture
Let's take the Starway down for a look at the lower lot ... raise your hand if you have kind of forgotten there is a Lower Lot at Universal Studios Hollywood since about April. =) 

​From up here the Exorcist doesn't look very scary. 
Picture
Not sure I've ever been so excited for a maze ... ever. 
Picture
Even though it was very cool for Labor Day Weekend, it was still warm enough for a trip through Jurassic Park
Picture
Picture
Picture
This one is happy to see you 
Picture
The Studio Tour is a must do of course ... 
Picture
Picture
Construction on the all new Halloween Maze is going along quite nicely. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Due to filming on the backlot we weren't able to get any shots of the mazes that will be down here, but still plenty of activity going on. 
Picture
Picture
Look for this in a Movie/TV Show/Commercial/Music Video (those are apparently still a thing) near you ...
Picture
These are how they keep you locked up for HHN ... 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Just time for a quick bite ... 
Picture
More HHN Prep ... 
Picture
Picture
It's too bad they couldn't somehow incorporate this in to HHN 
Picture
What's up Orlando ... 
Picture
Picture
Doesn't look too Psycho to me 
Picture
Picture
Lots of work going on for the Terror Tram. Some kind of facade here and lots of stuff to walk through. Yay!! 
Picture
Just wish we could have the fire back
Picture
Work on the humongous new soundstages is progressing quite nicely. Or just chilling on break. 
Picture
It's just too bad John and crew couldn't have gotten one year of HHN use out of these soundstages before they are put to use. Could you imagine the amazing pair of mazes they could have had here? 
Picture
Picture
Speaking of amazing mazes ... 
Picture
Thankfully since the attraction has opened there's been no toning down of the scares ... in fact, we've heard it's gotten even scarier, which is awesome. 
Picture
And we'll leave you with one of the amazing performers at the park. They truly are the best. 
Picture
Since Halloween Horror Nights starts next week that means we'll have our world famous HHN Strategy Guide up early next week. Well, maybe not World Famous ... LA famous? ... Internet Famous? ... well, it's famous somewhere if only in our own mind. 

So be sure to check back for that next week.
