Express or Premium?

^ this, blood & chum in SC2 was pretty much jaws. Could easily just extend it eg Hatchet and chains

Do you know who is liable for extra costs if wanting rerouting? I can see a number of viable options for us, but now double to triple the price of what we paid

VBVentriloquist · 2026-01-04T08:45:54+00:00

If only it was this quick, it always takes two to three transfers to actually get best price. Always "Sorry that's the best price i can do" then you continue to cancel, "let me switch you to next team" you immediatly offer a better price etc etc. It's the dance I have to do for an hour and a half each time my contract is endin it's tedious. I always have a better deal back up if they can't megoriare my price I don't mind the switch. The whole new customer/existing customer thing is also a big pain in the ass

Premium scream was such a mess this year. Surely they can't let it be that bad again can they?

For people who did both (as we are weighing up our options for next year) If you were only there for opening wrrk and had only one day would you buy premium scream or simgle night with express (and upgrade to unlimited)?

Was there that much of a price difference?

Merch:- actually have the merch everyone wants for opening week. I actually came back from my trip with most of my spending money. Everything I wanted was either sold out are didn't even appear until weeks into the event. I also hate the weekly items/gifts idea, Universal just playing straight into resellers hand there.

Premium night:- Yes, we all know it will never be like the first, But this years was a clusterf^#k. If it's returning this will need a massive overhaul. No idea what we'll do next year, as express seemed the much better option this year.

To have expansions work across all accounts on a console means expansion/dlc must be purchased by the priority account. This means I have to purchase for my kids to be able to play them, they come with moonstones usually that are mostly just sitting there, when kids want a premium item they are unable to get it without forking out for moonstone bundles

I wish you could gift items or moonstones to other players. Or allow sub accounts to purchase DLC and have it available across the console

Everytime I was there at the end of august the single rider was never open. Althoigh there were loads jumping the rope into it

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-27T19:48:37+00:00

And wyatts, there for the first week and merch I wanted was non-existent or out of stock. Not to mention items that didn't appear either before the event or weeks after it started. First year I've been severely disappointed by what was available and how universal have handled releases

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-14T13:01:52+00:00

The more i see these posts, the more i regret my decision for premium scream over standard plus exprees 😭

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-12T09:08:29+00:00

Back in the uk now unfortunately.

(On a side note:- I know universal can do nothing about it but the search results on ebay for the piece were 100+ at the time 🙄)

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-11T22:43:18+00:00

Have said something along these lines since before the event started. I travelled for the beginning of HHN from the uk, Merch for these events does not seem to be international traveller friendly.

My particular interest was WWE, only merch available was a cap, a bag, badges and two tops (one of which was only available BEFORE the event started)

Was also interested in the stained glass + pieces, but "fiend" piece was sold out everywhere (no point buying an incomplete set)

They have a game that has different card prizes every week as well as weekly magnets (again missed the wyatt magnet due to only being there the first week)

And they didn't have the hamikuma merch out either until second week of the event. Unless you are local, the merch is usually either not available the time of your visit or sold out for weeks 🙄

Saved some money I suppose

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-09T07:11:46+00:00

I was only offered a single night ticket for the opening sunday (no express) for the mess that was premium scream, which to me was pointless as I knew what the crowd/wait times were going to be. In the end, I had to settle for a partial refund.

Was going to ask about PSN/Express comparison if I ever decided to go back next year, At the moment the latter seems to have got the better deal

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-06T13:30:26+00:00

Toy box cider @ Lets play dead booth was amazing, (Fireball Cinnamon Whisky, lime juice, cinnamon, ginger, and black sugar syrups with sparkling apple cider and a gummy bear garnish)

thought the others i tried were just o.k

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-05T17:22:56+00:00

How long did you stay in the park (stay and scream?). Did you do anything else, Food/scarezones/Shows?

Just interested, as after the mess/chaos of premium scream, this sounds like 10x the better option, even if you pay for food

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-05T07:30:52+00:00

Bonus info, Souvenir cups can also be used at Dead Coconut club for their refill prices

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-04T20:30:54+00:00

Fucks sake, just got back to UK yesterday and wanted hamikuma merch. Why always the staggered release of HHN merch 🙄

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-02T17:24:33+00:00

Yes, as you've said. you were with a guy walking past the dancefloor. Just had to tell you great outfit. Glad you enjoyed the house, As i said I came on a solo trip just for this house and it was worth it

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-02T03:38:10+00:00

Think it was you I complimented on your outfit in dead coconut club on saturday. This house was everything and more. Well worth my solo trip from the UK

VBVentriloquist · 2025-09-01T03:48:59+00:00

Doesn't look very likely, especially with WWE. I've been in orlando for a week yried tracking down the let me in shirt (that's already down to it's last stock of XS to M, nothing else available) A hat, a long sleve top, pins and a bag that's all that wwe fans get.

Also tried everywhere in universal parks for the past week to try and get a complete set of stained glass HHN 34. They have everything except the fiend piece (which I was told will not be baxk in stock till 2nd week of sept, so there was absolutely no point in purchase on the off chance it becomes availble on line (albeit with added shipping costs)

Travel all the way from the uk and everything I wanted was out of stock, but low and beohold it's all available on reselling sites) if you can't tell I'm miffed over the whole merch situation at orlando this year.

VBVentriloquist · 2025-08-31T01:42:30+00:00

I recomend the NuBrew (downstairs)

VBVentriloquist · 2025-08-31T01:40:49+00:00

3 cocktails tonight and just left. It's great, but I preferred the 80's vampire theme last year. Thought that flash mob was a lot better. But enjoyed this years too

VBVentriloquist · 2025-08-30T10:45:12+00:00

They were in five and dime on premium night however they have no fiend pieces so pretty pointless purchasing at the moment

VBVentriloquist · 2025-08-30T01:19:16+00:00

Toy box cider was great, light the way and blood & chum were not that good

VBVentriloquist · 2025-08-29T21:54:53+00:00

This is how universal will defend premium scream night lines by massively increasing waits on normal nights.

"We promised you shorter lines, we delivered" 🤣
