Lot.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>How to survive a night at Universal Studios Hollywood HHN:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h4><strong>Age restrictions? <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>While there is no age restriction, Universal suggests that HHN is not age appropriate for children under the age of 13.\u00a0 While each parent knows their children better than anyone, many houses are based on horror movies containing graphic violence.\u00a0 The horror is real.\u00a0 The blood and gore is real.\u00a0 Often putrid smells are real (enhancing the immersion in the houses).\u00a0 The jump scares are very real.\u00a0 I would imagine the nightmares following this event would also be real for younger children.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Arrive early!<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Crowds flock to this event.\u00a0 Pre-purchase your tickets and arrive early in order to maximize your time.\u00a0 Remember, you may need to plan on parking in a garage, pass through security and then through turnstiles before you ever land in the event.\u00a0 With limited time and large crowds you\u2019ll be able to experience more horror.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Quicker access to the terror.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Express pass is available for purchase for Halloween Horror Nights.\u00a0 This upcharge provides guests with one entrance into each house (including Terror Tram) with limited or no wait.\u00a0 I consider it the only way to tour Halloween Horror Nights given that some houses often experience waits of up to a 90-120 minutes on the most popular evenings.\u00a0 While this option isn\u2019t inexpensive, it is worth it.\u00a0 Express will give you one queue bypass per house\/show and provide the best chance of experiencing all houses, shows, zones as well as the ability to enjoy food and beverage options.\u00a0 On the night we toured, we wrapped up our evening at 11:58 pm with two hours of terror left in the evening!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Eat prior<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I might suggest having a larger meal before the event, saving rooms for snacking.\u00a0 A larger meal will take time out of your event.\u00a0 And who doesn&#8217;t love a Stay Puft Marshmallow Man S&#8217;more as a snack?<\/p>\n<figure
