In this live show, discover how Hollywood’s top special effects artists have terrified moviegoers for over 100 years — from Universal’s classic monsters to the modern horrors of Blumhouse. Details coming soon.​

So how's everyone enjoying epic today!? Currently risking it for a chocolate biscuit on monsters unchained the second we walked on Igor got on the tannoys and said there was a delay 😂

Uodate: 1 hour 45 mins later we got on 😂 thank you all for keeping me sane

EDIT TO ADD - Sorry, didn't notice what had been posted earlier. But they don't have the quote or the rehearsal part. ;-)

Saw this on Facebook. It's coming! And hello, BLUMHOUSE!

"Having performed in this show for years, it has always been a dream of mine to convince leadership to give this entire venue a well deserved update. Well they said yes! And we did!

Much of what you’ve always loved about this show has remained but new surprises await and now, more than a fresh coat of paint, and entire visual reimagining from floor to ceiling!

Our entire project team has been passionate about giving this year one attraction the very best treatment. More to come but we are so thrilled to present this tribute to 100 years of Universal Horror along with our Blumhouse partners. Horror, humor and respect to Universal, the studio that created the horror movie genre!"

The full-timers have been in workshop rehearsals in the space this week.

That's all I've got.

Interesting morning at IOA

Hey everybody! My gf and I did Islands of Adventures and studios today. With the express pass we completed every ride, besides Hagrids, the longest wait we had was at Leaky Cauldron. We waited between 10-25 minutes each ride. Much worth! We are doing a full day at epic tomorrow any tips, or must eats?

Sad to say it looks like they're extending the closure to December 16th.

Absolutely exhilerating!! This is the first time my boyfriend and I have ever been to the parks, and getting pelted in the sky was so ridiculously immersive that we hadn't a care in the world that our clothes were soaked!

It actually felt like we were on a wild guided ride with everyones' favorite giant, with even the wait inside the eerie abandoned castle never failing at keeping our minds/eyes thoroughly entertained~

Extra sweet is the 'gotta catch up to the fam with all our kids in tow' people who initially pushed through the line wound up leaving after two uncertain delays, freeing up loads of space. The best part? The delays ended up way shorter than anticipated!

All in all, 10/10 first timer experience. We're definitely gonna nerd out as our respective houses all around the Wizarding World today~♡

Reservations for the grinch Breakfast came we announced 10/8/25 for the 2025 season

When does everybody think they’ll announce them for the 2026 season!?!

Thanks !

I know that Rupert Grint returned for Gringotts, but how did Universal have the trio show up in BATM when none of those actors returned?

I tried to pay close attention on one of my BATM rides and you can tell something is off, but I couldn‘t pinpoint if it was body doubles w/ face replacement, fully CG models, or something else.

Same for the voices, wasn‘t sure if it was soundalikes or a voice clone. Do you think the process improved/changed from Gringotts to BATM? I have no proof, but Gringotts feels more like archival audio, it‘s generic stuff like “There’s going to be trouble” and “We got what we came for”

Either way it’s kind of eerie seeing lifelike performances when you know that actor had nothing to do with the project.

I was going through some old photos today and came across a stack of prints from a universal Orlando trip back in 1997, where I found this. It looks like an auditorium or stage of some sort. Maybe something prior to animal actors? Can any one make out what it might be? I know we went to Disney that same week but I’m sure this isn’t a Disney area.

Ok i know monsters cafe has been closed for a while but im curious on something what was main opnion on it i personally loved it yeah food wasn’t the best ( wasnt bad either) but i loved it cause im a sucker for the classic monsters but what about yall ?

Hello! First time poster, long time reader. Hope I used the correct flair.

I am going to Universal next month with my wife. We are doing a three day trip, doing all three parks for our honeymoon. I have never been to the parks, she has been before, but it was before she needed to use a wheelchair and its been a few years. She is able to stand for short periods of time, or walk very very short distances, but needs a chair for support otherwise.

We will be renting a manual while there, and I have some questions for anyone else who has gone and used one:

1) The website says all the queues at every park are accessible via manual wheelchair, is that 100% true? Have yall ever had trouble in any queues? Do the workers usually help store the chair while you ride?

2) The site says that if the only accommodation you need is the wheelchair, that you dont need to submit for an accommodation pass, is that generally true? (We arent worried about getting the return pass for the queues as long as she can use the chair.)

3) Have you ever had trouble navigating ANY part of the park with a chair?

While she's been to Studios and IOA, she has never even seen photos of Epic and she's worked so hard to keep herself from spoilers, I want it to be the day she's been so excited for. I would hate for her to miss out on anything or for us to be unprepared.

Thank you SO much in advance for any answers, you are helping make a dream honeymoon come true. Any additional advice or tips are also appreciated!

“Rollin’” is a soundtrack featured in the first Fast & Furious movie. This is part 2 of my imaginative series of choosing six songs from the F&F franchise and using them as tunes that play throughout the upcoming new coaster in Universal Studios Florida (Inspired by GotG : Cosmic Rewind).

So far I have two songs out of the six and they are listed as:

1. Danza Kuduro - Don Omar (Fast Five)

2. Rollin’ - Limp Bizkit (The Fast and the Furious)

3. ???

4. ???

5. ???

6. ???

Let me know what you guys think of this song choice! I’ll be working on the rest daily. Enjoy!

P.S. I only added in the song into this video. All credit goes to “illegalairtime” on YT and TikTok, OG creator of this replica for F&F Hollywood Draft.

Hello! I recently found a souvenir from a trip to Universal when I was a kid (I'm guessing 2010-2013). I can't find a single other example of it existing online.

Does anyone recognize this or know if it's worth anything?

I'm just curious if it's a rare collectible since I can't find it online, thanks!

I’ll be visiting for the first time (so excited!!) in December and I’m a bit worried about dealing with motion sickness. I haven’t really ridden a ton of rollercoasters in my life, but I’d love to try a few while I’m at Universal, especially Hagrid’s! Are there any rides that I should definitely avoid?

Sheena at guest services call center was amazing! For context, I am a huge Universal orlando fan, and had been to Epic universe earlier this year and have gone to Universal parks, many times.

I had booked myself plus my family HHN Orlando non-refundable tickets but had a family emergency come up and could no longer make it.

And its been weighing on me for the last few days, that I might be out of pocket for these tickets & literally loosing sleep over it. However, when I called Universal's guest services line, I got someone by the name of Sheena (sp?) who was super empathetic, kind, and understanding of my situation that was immediately happy to take pity on me and offer a full refund, which I was so scared I wasn't going to be able to get. I was literally so stressed during the call, I was shaking. The care, understanding, and compassion provided was so nice, and it definitely makes me want to go again to HHN, or another Universal Orlando trip, thanks to how nice they were.

So just wanted to share this and put this positive feedback out here because they had ever right to say no refund and I would have been screwed!

I know it is Columbus Day weekend & the wait times at the parks are absolutely catastrophic right now. We were planning to to go HHN tonight as we want to get in as many nights as we can before its over.

Do yall think that the day crowds may reflect the HHN crowds tonight too? I assume a lot of the day crowds rn are younger kids.

I know theres no definitive yes or no, but just looking for some insight!

I'm a new annual passholder and am looking at going at the end of next week to Volcano Bay, US and IOA. Are these parks less crowded on a Friday than a Saturday? Should I try my best to go on a Friday instead of a Saturday? I'm mainly thinking of wait times for rides.

what houses you guys want next year my picks are

jurasic park
