- In this video we show you what a SOLD OUT night at Halloween Horror Nights 2022 looks like! We visited HHN31 on a completely sold out night to see what the HHN crowds 2022 were like. We walk throughout the park enjoying the scarezones at HHN 2022, and seeing what the wait times look like at all the houses. We also used our express pass at Halloween Horror Nights 31 to see how much time express saved us in comparison to the posted wait times. And, of course, we also got some snacks to see how crazy the Halloween Horror Nights crowds 2022 were at some of the seasonal food booths! Check it out to see how crazy HHN 31 is before visiting on a sold out night!

Would you go to HHN on a sold out night?
We were there for a sold out weekend (weekend right before the hurricane), and it honestly wasn't awful
I am a “more the merrier”type, but only with Express Pass.
Honestly you don’t know it’s sold out when you buy your ticket so yeah if ticket is bought I would be there.
We will be there Wednesday the 12th. hope it isn't sold out but we got the RIP tour so it shouldn't be bad if it is.
I expected it to be busier as well. We are so blessed to have express this year. Can't ever go without it now, otherwise it'd be a drinking in the scarezone night.
As someone who never buys Express Pass, I've come to the realization that not all queue lines are equal. 3 things will influence how a line goes for you, the wait time,(obviously) how fast the line is going, and whether or not there is line entertainment like music or a video screen playing old HHN footage. I find that as long as there is plenty of distraction, I can breeze through a line no problem. But if the line crawls at a snails pace, or has no music or stuff to listen to, it feels like torture.
The Bug house line has been pretty bad about the line moving as slowly as possible.
Oh my gosh, YES! I got stuck in the bug house express line for over 45 minutes one night and it was torture. The standing still really makes my back hurt, too. It's torture! lol
@@ThePughTwo
Yeah! I dunno why specifically the Bug House is having so much trouble with their line this year. I'm not sure if it's an issue with the effects, or if the house can't handle the capacity of people, or what the problem is. I've been to that one three times on three different days and it's the same problem, consistently. The line just doesn't move. It never looks very long, but it just crawls along slower than... than the bugs inside of it. 😁
The house itself is amazing, but that line is a nightmare. I don't remember that location's past houses (Wicked Growth, Depths of Fear, and Slaughter Sinema) having such a problem.
Maybe it's just... buggy.
Tyler still throwing some F&F shade 🤣🤣
😂😂 always!
Good day when the Pugh two post
facts!
Y'all are so sweet!!
Im going to HHN for the first time next week (been a lifelong dream) and y’all’s content has made me even more pumped and excited. I always love finding fun and exciting new content creators and your energy and happiness is admirable. My girlfriend and I love you’re content!
Wooo also going next week!! Hope you have a great time!
Oh my gosh, thank you, Connor! We hope you have a great time on your trip, and we're so glad you've been enjoying our videos!
This intro!!!!! You guys are amazing!!!
Haha thank you, y'all are the best!!!
*my friend and I went to HHN Hollywood at the end of September on a sold out night. we both purchased the fast pass tickets. we did ALL 10 haunted houses and all of the big rides in the matter of it opening from 7 PM - 2 AM. WORTH THE MONEY if you’re wanting to do everything!!*
Express saves you a ton of time, that's for sure!!
Good to see use guys putting up another post absolutely love your posts
Thank you, Dougie! We appreciate you watching them as always!
You two are so dang fun to watch, love your videos❤
Thank you, Sandra! You're so sweet!
Great video showing the crowd levels during a sold-out night! Definitely helps for planning purposes and whether or not express pass is worth it! Thanks!
Absolutely! We're so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!!
Was so cool to meet you at Today Cafe last Friday! Love your videos and thanks for all the content and tips!
It was so nice meeting you, too! Thank you for watching, we really appreciate it!
Power was out for a while and really wanting to watch y’all’s videos thanks for the upload ❤
We're so glad it's back on for you! We were lucky enough to be out of town when the hurricane hit, but we know it's affected many people. Thanks for watching; we hope you enjoyed it!
Looks like some of the food lines was as long as the ones to go to the houses good to see you post a new vlog
😂🤣 right?? It was wild!
Was hoping you guys were ok!!! Didn’t see a video from y’all since the hurricane, glad to see y’all are safe!!!
We were in California visiting some parks out there! We've got several videos to share with y'all soon!!
I loved it. Anna dancing every once in a while is just so great. I do the same thing. 🤩
Haha I find myself doing it all the time. Especially when there’s food involved! 😂
@@ThePughTwo I also dance when food is involved. Fuina used to tease me about it. But honestly, I'm just so happy to have food, I have to do my happy dance!
So glad for a new video! I was hoping you two and your pups were safe. 🥳🥰For future videos, could you tell us the date you are filming? Thanks for another Great Video!
We'll keep that in mind! And yes, thank you! We were in California when the hurricane hit which is why we didn't post for a while.
i finally made it to orlando after 25 years! i loved every minute of it. i wanna thank you guys for all the videos you done. it helped me big time!!
i saved a fortune! i planned and execute. the VIP is the way to go!! from now on when i go back. hopefully not in 25 years. but in 2025! ill be doing vip probably two or three times! its worth it! i did HHN. started at the back with the weekend (worst house ever) did 4 houses from 6pm to 7pm and 2 houses from 8 to 12! both those houses had a 180 min wait but it actually was longer! (not worth the wait esp when your feet are being murdered from all the walking and queuing!! had a blast all the same. will i do it again? yes. but it would not be a priority as i feel its just universal forcing this on you for them to make more money. they should just have a limited capacity with queues no more than 25 mins! finally! food and drinks are WAAAAAY over priced! like crazy! they gotta come down a bit. we just drank the free water from the stations. it was soooo refreshing and hydrating than drinking all the softdrinks all day!!
thanks guys,
ill shall continue to follow you.
ps. i learned a new tip for you that you havent mentioned ???
PPS the hard rock secret john lennon tour at the hard rock cafe??
done it! ITs Amazing!
Haha it sounds like you had an awesome time on your trip!! You’ve got us super curious, too. What’s your tip for us??
@@ThePughTwo the secret john lennon tour at the hard rock cafe!
So bummed out I never got to meet the both of you in person. Just got back from an amazing (and windy) two weeks. First time in the country and rode through the hurricane. Also done the HHN RIP tour. Would recommend that to anyone. Well worth every single penny. Once again hope you are both well. That's an experience I will never forget in a hurry! ♥️
Oh no, we're sorry we missed you! We've actually been out of town, too. We went to California to visit some of the parks down there! It sounds like you still managed to have a great time, though! The RIP tour is amazing!!
Wow hey guys how are you all doing good to see y'all's videos again
Hi Julia! It's been a little bit, we've been so busy! We're finally back from our California trip, and we've got several videos coming!
I’m in the same boat as Anna, I look directly at the scare actors in the boo holes and they still scare the shit out of me 🤦🏾♂️
😂🤣 I’m SO jumpy!!
So glad my favorite universal tubers made it through the hurricane safely, you guys have been instrumental to preparing for our universal honeymoon in July of next year
Haha, thank you! We actually escaped to California and visited some of the parks out there. We hope you and your fiance have an amazing time on your trip!
Lmao… that day!!! Omg!!! Me running behind you guys trying to say hi! But you guys walk ssooo fast!!!! I was so tired 😅 I couldn’t make it! 😢
Oh no, we're so sorry we missed you! We hope you had a great time on your trip, though!!
Glad to see you guys are still alive! Did you get any damage to the house from Ian?
Lol we are! And no, thankfully our home is still in tact! We’ve been in California visiting some parks out there, so we managed to miss it all!
@@ThePughTwo when will these videos come out or are they not videos?
Looked like so much fun except now I am craving Pizza Fries really bad. 😂 Thanks so much!
😂😂 pizza fries are the best!! Also, I’d say you could recreate them pretty easily! Lol
@@ThePughTwo A great idea that I will take advantage of, but it won’t be the same without HHN in the background. 😂
Love you guys! ❤️
Looking at those wait times, I’m glad you both convinced us to get express. We watched the two Blumhouse films recently and really enjoyed them but 100 minutes??
We couldn't believe it was that long either! It's not a bad house by any means, but it's definitely not our favorite this year, either. We've seen it over 100 minutes since then, too!
Busiest HHN ever!
It was crazy! lol
I was there last night! It had to be sold out it was insanely crowded. Uncomfortably crowded
It's a busy event, that's for sure!
The wife and I will be there on the 23rd for HHN hopefully it wont look like this lol, But we planned ahead we're staying at a resort on site and we got the express pass for HHN. We're really looking forward to this event. We're also doing both parks sunday to tuesday.
If you have express, it really doesn't matter too much! The food lines can get a little crazy, but express makes it so worth it!
Saw you guys at antojitos on sept 24. ( walked past your table on our way out)I was going to say hi but you guys were with another group so I didn’t want to interrupt. So, I’ll officially say hi! Lol. Love your videos!
Oh, you should have said hello! We hope you enjoyed Antojitos, that's one of our favorite restaurants at the parks!
@@ThePughTwo mmmm. No. Unfortunately Antojitos did not agree with me….
A fog machine Anna?? Really!!!! Lol
It was so unexpected!! lol
im gonna love pugh forever.... forever and ever amem...
As long as old men sit and talk about the weather. As long as old women sit and talk about old men!
@@ThePughTwo LOL! You got it!!!
Those pizza fries look amazing
They're so good, but I feel like they'd be super easy to recreate, too!
We were at universal today Thursday we saw the crowds coming in as we left approx 7pm man must be sold out today too ps we fly home tomorrow
They usually announce on their socials when it's a sold-out night! A lot of the country is on fall break right now, though, so we usually see an increase in crowds right about now!
Blum house i didn't think was that good
Will you guys be posting the California Trip anytime soon?? So excited!!
Yes!! We're still trying to recover from our trip, but we plan to get at least two videos out from that trip this week!!
what is yalls camera set up because WOW! Love the look of the lights in the background and the shallow depth of field on all the close up shots!!!
Thank you, Sebastian!! We have a Sony a7iv and we were using the 24 1.4 GM lens. It does a LOT better in the low light than the lens we normally shoot on!
Going to it tonight here's hoping it won't be insane lol express should help hopefully
Fingers crossed! Lol we’ll be around tonight, too!
we were there that night, and they are completely right. If you want to do all the 10 houses, you NEED express pass. I'm a top tier passholder and we only had that night to enjoy HNN, we were there since 430pm in the early access, we drank, ate and waited for around 1 and a half and we made it to "The Weenknd" at 5:55 pm, then hoped to "Legends Collide" within 5 minutes of sand by wait time. We did not use our Express Passes for those 2 houses since wait times were so low. By the end of the night we were so TiRED but all 10 houses done! then I saw this 2 and I got super excited!!!! sadly they don't walk.. then run lol. I couldn't get to them since my poor legs were done for the day...😂🤣😂🤣
😂😂 Oh no! We're sorry we were walking too fast! You're not the first person to tell us that lol. We're so glad you got all 10 houses in and had a great night, though. We know what that exhaustion feels like, for sure!
These wait times gave me anxiety lol! I knowww I need to work on having more patience but it's soooo hard 🤣😭!
Haha we don't have patience, either!
I saw these same exact times for 5 straight nights from September 21-25. It was apparently never “sold out”.
These express lines for Chupacabra, Halloween, Coven were all entirely too long. Dead man’s was never that bad of a wait. That was house in the back that had Monsters this year has GOT TO CHANGE. The merge is ridiculous, Always has been. Drink and food lines routinely 20 minutes. It’s just gotten almost too crowded.
The crowds can get out of control!
It's amazing how Universal has managed to combine ALL of the foods I can't have in different ways 😆 The pizza fries did look really good though...
I always look at the scare actors and think how tired they must be by 2am...
Haha they have different shifts of scareactors! They switch them out every once in a while both in the houses and in the scarezones. I don't think it would be legal to make them all work for that long without a break! 😂
@@ThePughTwo Back when I was doing production, most days were 12 hours. Some were longer. Hopefully they get better hours now!
I have never been to HHN or Universal but want to. I have been to a Busy Kings island for Halloween haunt but wow
We hope you get to go soon! It’s so much fun!
@@ThePughTwo u guys need to
Get to Kings island for Haunt. It’s Awsome
I went to HHN at USH on 10/7 and we paid for express - worth the price! The wait times for the regular lines were 140+ minutes. The longest we waited in the Express line was for Halloween and it was about 10-15 minutes. We did all the houses, Transformers and Forbidden Journey. I was not impressed by most of the houses. I think they needed scarier properties for the houses and was underwhelmed with the Weeknd house. My favorites were probably La Llorona, Scarecrow and Legends Collide. Anyone else feel like they have toned down the scariness?
last time I went was in 2013 and they had the best properties - Evil Dead, Insidious, AHS and Stranger Things. My sister and I think they should do scary/creepy games - Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Bioshock, etc.
Express is definitely a time saver! And lots of people that have been going to HHN for that long says the same thing. They've toned down the scare-factor a little bit to make the event more appealing to more people!
We were there last night and the crowds were packed but we still had fun. The line was over 40 mins for the pizza fries so i missed out on that
Oh my gosh that’s crazy! And don’t worry, they’re not worth a 40 minute wait! Lol
Awesome! But I have a question, why when you lived far from Orlando you made more vlogs then you do now?
Hey there! We have been super busy trying to get settled in and the hurricane threw things off. We will have a lot of stuff coming y’all’s way!
I went on a sold out night a week n a half ago and I left before sundown it was so bad
Also, the waits for Halloween, Blumhouse, and Dead Man were always 90+ minutes throughout the night until the end of the night. 😂
It’s crazy how busy it can get!
Boom goes the dynamite
💥 boom!! Lol
If I ever get to HHN it won’t matter how large the crowd is. I’m going to dive in because I’ll probably never get the chance again. And I’ll be on the lookout for those pizza fries 😊
That's how you just have to tackle it! The pizza fries are great, but they're so simple. You could easily make them at home, too!!
I'm really surprised they haven't opened up for 7 nights a week for all of sept/oct. there is way more demand than supply here...
The reason they don't is that they'd have to pay the scareactors overtime!
Y'all should do a review on "A petrified forest" in Altamonte. Never been but looks cool
We’ve never heard of it, we’ll have to check it out!!
@@ThePughTwo likewise until today, it obviously doesn't have the budget of universal or SeaWorld but looks like something fun and local. Look forward to the content if y'all make it out there ☺️
I went last night and the lines were scarier than the houses. It was 12:30 AM and the Blumhouse line went UP from 60 to 80 minutes. I was just like, can't do it. My feet were killing me. I got express for tonight lol.
Express is a life saver for busy nights, that’s for sure!!
I was planning on going this Sunday (The 9th) but recently switched it to Tuesday since they added it due to hurricane Ian. I have express and I want to get all houses and scare zones done. Do you think I can get them all done and how crowded do you think it will be?
If you have express, you shouldn’t have an issue regardless of when you go!
I enjoyed this years HHN I want to go back but I am trying to save to take another trip in may for 18 days.
18 days?? That sounds amazing! We hope you have a great time on that trip!
@@ThePughTwo I'm working my way up with each trip my goal is 20 days
That actually looked like the nights I went. I don't know if they were sold out, but the lines were all around 90
They announce on their social medias when it's so out, and I *think* the only sold out nights this year have been opening weekend and the night we filmed this!
Heard from many many friends that the good guy burger gave them the runs lol dont do it!!!!
😂🤣
Just leaving universal now without even going to hhn, even though we paid for tix. We went last night and was not impressed at all. Lines were as bad as Hagrid, and after spending all day in the park, the last thing we wanted was to spend more time in lines. Crowds are even worse than normal park times. And the fact they don't even give a discount if you've paid full price for a park ticket for the day is wrong. Then you're express passes don't count either is also wrong, and again, no discount. We'll never come for hhn again. Oh yeah, and those that had express passes were let in at a ratio of at least. 50 of them, to maybe 10 of us in the "regular" line. Never again!
We feel the exact same way, it was our first HHN and we were disappointed. We left really early.
We went a few years back absolutely hated it complete waste of money. They should run it in on one side of the park and leave the other half open for people who have no interest in HHN.
Was this filmed post Ian? I saw that Ghoulish had been down since, but was running in the video.
Bruh I went to a sold out night but we were at the day time in the park. The actors were vibing crazy like they were dances with kids that were having fun! Lines were crazy but they had scare actors talk to people. Got 3 houses before lines got to an 1hour. We had no clue with we saw big yt there which was cool.
The team members at Universal are amazing! People really underestimate how much the TM's add to the experience!
Rueben Fries > Pizza Fries
This was filmed beforehand! We were in California during Ian and had some videos recorded for that time. We decided to hold onto them and not post anything while the entire state was in a state of emergency. We're not sure if Ghoulish will return or not!
What night was this filmed?
We were just there last week and I THOUGHT I’d seen y’all there but wasn’t super sure it was you guys, so just trying to match up my speculation lol
Haha it was the last Friday of September!
Could you do a video on best strategies for houses at HHN? What I mean is how to plan what order to do houses. Like is it better to start with the houses in the back of the park for shortest line? I don't know maybe there isn't a good strategy since every year they have different houses. And you might not know which ones are more popular. And I mean strategies for those that don't get express pass.
We did a video where we raced each other to see if starting in the front or the back was faster! We used express, but the basic strategy should be the same!
@@ThePughTwo Yes that was a great video! I just know when I plan a day at Disney World the best ride to hit first is the most popular early in the morning because they get much longer lines later on. Rides like Flight of Passage, Seven Dwarfs etc. I don't know if it's possible to apply the same strategy based on popularity. You know, houses that have the most consistent long lines.
The best strategy is don’t bother with it. With that many people, it already looks like a literal nightmare
I'm going Sun I hope the express is worth it
Express is definitely worth it! It saves you SO much time!
There are a few houses it seems like they don't do the express ratio correct. it's happened for a few years. Where there is always like 2 or 3 houses where the person letting people in is doing more of a 50-50 than a 70-30. I went the 2nd week (which actually i did see you guys and said hi!) and the longest i had waited in express was about a solid 15. other than that each was about 5-8 mins
That definitely happens sometimes! We had a few issues earlier in the event where the express lines were almost as long as the standard line. They figured it out, though! lol
What day was this video shot because last night here was so busy to me!!! There was no short wait anywhere. Used express pass all night long!!
This was shot a week ago Friday!
Hopefully it’s not super packed bc I might go wit my cousin and his friends on a Thursday or wit my aunt on a Saturday so hopefully it’s not super packed early so I can go in all the mazes
We hope you get to see everything this year!!
So for HHN I know you buy a separate park ticket but do you pay additional for the haunted houses?
No, the haunted houses are included with the HHN ticket!
You mentioned Howl-o-scream. Sea World or Busch Gardens? Did you have a good time?
We went to SeaWorld! It’s so much fun!!
@@ThePughTwo Will we be seeing a video?
Express for hhn seems like its a crap shoot . Like depends on when people use them. Or in my experience
It always helps, but those lines just get so long at HHN!
What night and date was this filmed... Wed,Thr,Fri or Sat?
I believe this was a Friday night!
We saw the queues as we were leaving the parks a couple of weeks ago and they were insane ,,,so we gave HHN a miss ,which I kinda half regret maybe next time ,,also the weather was bad a few of the nights ,can people defer there tickets due to bad weather.😊
So I know if you call in advance you can change your dates, but I’m not sure if they’d let you do that day-of just because of bad weather. That’s a good question!
@@ThePughTwo I spoke to a lad who went when the weather was bad one night and he said it was very quiet and walked on most things ,so maybe people just didn’t turn up 🤨
The tickets say non refundable, rain or shine...
@@liebchen1983 when I was there the rain and wind was horrible at night sometimes ,it can’t of been nice ,but hey that’s Orlando weather ,still warm though just wet through

Haha we appreciate it!
What day of the week is this?
I believe it was a Friday!
What night was this what days
I believe it was a Friday!
If you don’t have express your wasting your time every year and money, value your time over money, me and my 3 other friends went last Thursday we started @ 630 got on all the rides and did all the mazes and ate and left by 11ish on a sold out night (universal Hollywood) I went to Orlando about 3 weeks prior express s was so bad there it didn’t even feel like express we waited a good amount for a lot of mazes at Orlando, at Hollywood I waited no longer then 5 min or less
Express is a huge time saver!
Hello
HI!
What was the date of this night you went when it was sold out?
Oh gosh idk lol I’d say roughly 2 days before this video was published! 😂
@@ThePughTwo x4 got ya. Just wondering
My only complaint is this video isn’t longer 😅
😂🤣 don’t worry, we have some longer videos coming!
Is that opening supposed to be Monster Mash
Oh no, it's just some copyright-free Halloween music we found!
So you don't ride any rides during HHN?
We don’t normally, but you can!
what are the ride wait times like on HHN nights?
Gringotts is usually the highest around 45 minutes, but the rest of them are usually pretty reasonable!
@The Pugh Two why can't you say fruity pebbles but you can say fruit loops? But I can't wait I be there on the 26 of this month hope to run into you two
It was just a joke about how companies like Universal never say any brand names! lol we hope you have a great time on your upcoming trip! We should be around, so keep an eye out for us!
@@ThePughTwo oh ok sorry about that and I will thank you
Hi you two. I'm in Orlando till 20th from UK. I absolutely love you two so much and would love to meet you. Please let me spend an hr with u at universal. Ps. I'm here today. 11th
We hope you had a great trip!
That is why I'm doing to rip your next year
RIP is awesome, we don't blame you!
@@ThePughTwo it going to be my first time at hhn
