good afternoon my friends i hope all of you are having an awesome fantastic day i'm here
at the universal orlando resort to have another very fun day the first thing i want to do today
is of course ride the VelociCoaster it's been probably over a month since the last time i rode
the velocicoaster so we're gonna go do that today number two i want a ice cold butter beer number
three i want to try to find either a restaurant or a quick service location from around the two
parks that i've never eaten at and number four i need to go over to universal studios florida
to check on the updates for halloween horror nights 2021 because universal has put out a ton
of new props since the last time we were here i'm going to be meeting up with a friend let's go have
some fun i hope you guys are ready because i am let's go do this i'm about to go through security
which looks to be moving really quickly looks like universal kind of figured out the security system
for now but here's a look at the new updated signage as far as mass guidelines they also
have a new pa announcement saying they encourage you to wear a mask pretty much what the sign says
i feel like universal is not mandating the mask but they're encouraging the mask strictly because
they need halloween horror nights to happen and they need that event to be as normal as possible
because the more normal it is the more people will come and universal depends on that money because
this event brings in so much money for the company every single year as i'm walking through citywalk
i noticed this t-shirt that you can get airbrushed universal family vacation 2021.
that's an awesome shirt since the last time i was here this awning was not here for the velossa
coaster and the bypass bridge and pretty much this is just to protect the people walking by and
protecting the guests riding the coaster pretty interesting i like the theming though there she is
oh yes about to hop in line the current standby wait is 45 minutes
not too bad at all this is the first time i'm outside in the extended queue line but
it's only a 45 minute wait so it should go very quickly here comes the barrel roll
nice this line is moving at a really good pace i think we've been in line for just about 20 minutes
and we're almost there
she's hungry okay about 28 minutes in line i'm about to put the camera and my belongings in the
locker and i'll see you guys when we get off the velossa coaster we just had a really good ride on
the velossa coaster doc that was your very first time his reaction was priceless what did you think
100% the best ride i've ever been on in my life 100 there you go universal is currently testing
a new system for virtual return time so i was able to get us a return time to ride hagrid's
so let's go ahead and reserve our spot we have two hours so the reservation must be used by 3:35 pm
but they do give you an option to reschedule so that's really nice really cool it's always
super congested right here near hagrid's but yeah to ride haggers today you need a return
time because it is a virtual line it's another hot one i gotta stay hydrated i have now made it
here to universal studios florida to have some halloween horror nights updates and holy cow
look at this i think this is now pretty much confirmed to be the icon anniversary
scare zone 30 years 30 fears wow look at this they have added so much we have the director
fear jack the caretaker i am so excited for this year's event we have a stage so
looks like we'll have some icons up here looks like some scare actors could be up here as well
oh up top looks like there's going to be fire oh man that's going to be awesome
looks like some more scare actors will be up here as well over here you have another really cool
photo opportunity chance the usher my favorite eddie the storyteller lady luck there's also
another stage by the way monster's cafe has officially reopened heading over to new york
to ride the mummy wants her grandma there's a ton of lighting on top of the buildings here
this is going to be a really big scare zone this year so not much has changed in this scare zone
this is rumored to be search and destroy they have added a barricade and some barrels the stage
there's definitely going to be a lot happening on this stage on the other side of that we have
another barricade and some more barrels looks like they have added more lighting on this little stage
these containers look like a lot of blood is inside i don't see
nothing else on this truck here i think maybe something will happen in the back of the truck
but i'm not sure some more barrels also on these platforms with the numbers on them looks like they
have added some more lighting on there i do see some signage it says submit to the controller
and then over here the controller sees all who's the controller i want to know looks like
we have another victim but i feel like whoever the controller is is taking the blood from the victim
you can see the tubes right here and the blood is going inside of these containers i know it's a
little graphic but again that is halloween horror nights what's over here oh yeah another victim
with more tubing here right outside of the arcade we just have some random barrels check this out
we can see the very top of a victim's hair yeah i think my theory is kind of right
with the tubing and the containers full of blood we also have some more random barrels
coming up on what we think will be crypt tv i mean it's pretty much confirmed just by the post i've
seen online lately but look at this they have added a lot i'm not very familiar with crypt tv
so i do need to go home and watch the episodes but looks like we have a bathroom scene right here and
going back to what i was talking about from what i've seen online there is a crypt tv logo right
here but universal did cover it up and over here looks like we have a little stage look at this
oh wow this looks like it's going to be a really fun scare zone so i'm going to walk this way
i think for people who walk this way somebody may pop out right here possibly i don't know
it's another scary logo right here and who knows guests may not be able to walk
back in this direction but it kind of looks like it because
there's a door right here i don't know have another stage right here
lots of action is happening right here the last time i think last week when i was here
for my last update there was nothing out right here another small stage
wow yeah i definitely need to go home and uh catch up on these episodes oh look at this one
spiders i do not like spiders but this looks cool looks like somebody may be up here too
wow okay i'm interested i'm noticing three more lighting trusts
right over here i don't know what they could be doing back here maybe like a food truck or maybe
some scare actors back in this direction that's that's odd i've never seen something happen back
here for horror nights but the crypt tv scare zone is just right here coming up on what we think will
be the jack show however the new rumor is this will not be a jack show at all but i am seeing
a lot of additional lighting and speakers on the stage right there so we're getting
something we just don't know exactly what just yet as i was walking i noticed
the single light and i think this light is a projection of something that will be right here on
the man in black show building in years past this has been like the hhn logo right here so i think
that's what this light is for and as i zoom in we can see the front of the house and it says welcome
to scary it's happening i believe only 26 days away from today the first night of hhn 2021
now coming up on what we believe will be the terror queen scare zone we have a ton of speakers
and lighting all throughout hello how are you guys a lot of lighting up top
hello i am noticing a ton of speakers throughout this scare zone so it's going to be really loud
in this area looks like either a fog machine or just a huge generator and there will be a
strobe light because we can see one right there i'm now passing through hollywood
and i'm really not seeing anything related to hhn however there are a ton of lights on
top of the buildings and then over here as well so something is coming we think this will be the eddy
scare zone i'm going to stop inside five and dime to check out some hhn 2021 preview merchandise
looks like you can purchase your portrait and see it displayed in the tribute store this year what
that's cool they have also added some new t-shirts i think i'm going to buy this with the icons
because universal announced this week that hhn icons captured is coming with all the hhn icons
yeah i think i'm gonna buy this shirt there's also some cups here i'm gonna try not to touch anything
but those are really nice there's also some socks with the icons on there some blood soaked popcorn
interesting do they have my size they do okay good oh here's a better look at the socks by the way
pretty nice the price of the t-shirt is 35 okay i just talked with some team members about this
this just came out today there's only 100 spots available and they have already sold about 20.
so the 11 by 14 is 190 before tax and the 16 by 20 is 225 before tax like i said there's only
100 spots total and how this works is once you pay for it universal will send you instructions to how
to do it upload your photo and this will be inside this year's halloween horror nights tribute store
and then after the event universal will send you the exact portrait to your home
that's pretty cool i may do it i don't know but that is really cool and like i said this just
started today which is sunday they did tell me it is expected to run through august 15th
but they do think this will sell out within the day or even tomorrow that's pretty much
all of the updates the new updates that i have for you guys regarding halloween horror nights
2021 but i do want to let you guys know all tickets are now on sale that includes single
night tickets and multi-day tickets including rush of fear and all that so i bought mine
as we're walking back over to islands of adventure it is now our turn to ride hagrid's it's about 30
minutes earlier than expected we do have a 30-minute window it looks like i like this
new system it's quite nice okay and just like that we have bypassed this madness of a crowd
we're gonna put our stuff in the locker and have a ride on haggards
i love this new system universal is testing i hope they keep this and expand this to more attractions
around the park i'm gonna switch over to my iphone for the uh hackers ride here we go so
far the line is really moving at a really good pace right now wow the line hasn't stopped once
oh i can feel the ac feels so good so still no pre-show but we're still going we have not stopped
once we have been in line for maybe 10 minutes and we finally stopped we're almost on the ride
this new system is really working out just don't know what they're doing
all right man what did you think of haggard's fast going so fast my beard was going into my mouth
crazy so you liked it loved it did you like it better than the vlosso coaster or the other way
uh the veloci coaster is better but hagris is a must do two different experiences two
different experiences okay let's go find some food because we're both starving yeah
i found a place to eat here at confisco i've never eaten here i've heard pretty good things
about it though here's the qr code if you guys want to scan it and follow along and
check out the menu i found what i'm going to go with i'm going to get the udon noodle bowl
i'm going to go with the pork belly for 24 they have a really nice menu lots of different unique
options our food is here doc got the chipotle wrap with french fries that looks really good and i
got the pork belly udon looks really really good for dessert we got key lime cheesecake
little tarts they look really good this restaurant is really nice great theming great service pretty
good food they also have a really nice bar here as well i made it back to the car it is another
very hot day but i want to talk about lunch it was pretty good i enjoyed my udon it wasn't the best
udon i've ever had but it was pretty good for theme park food i did accomplish three of my goals
however i forgot to get a butterbeer because when i was inside both hogsmeade and digon alley both
places to get butter beer was very full like the line stretched out pretty far but that's okay the
next time i'm here at universal i have to get an ice cold butter beer but let's talk about hagrid's
and the new virtual queue system it's testing right now but i have a feeling universal will
start to do this every day and probably with other attractions but that new system worked really well
like we may have waited 10 minutes to ride hagrid's which is kind of unheard of because
that line gets pretty long because everybody wants to ride haggards but that new system
it worked out i love that you were able to reschedule your return time if something
came up or if you're still having lunch or on another attraction or if you have to go back
to your hotel you have that option so i liked it and as far as halloween horror nights 2021
i got to see a lot of props today they are really moving fast on getting the props out with scare
zones we're just a few weeks away i can't believe it i am beyond excited for this year however i do
just wonder how is it really going to be once the event starts because of just everything that's
going on in the world right now and in florida but i am going to try to come up here every week to
give you guys updates regarding halloween horror nights and just everything that's happening here
at the universal orlando resort because so much is happening i'm going to go ahead and end today's
video i had such a fun day i enjoyed hanging out with my brother doc just had a good time catching
up and just seeing his reaction on haggard's in the velociCoaster was so much fun i do need to get
back here at night time to ride the VelociCoaster because i have not rode the velociCoaster at night
time and so many of you guys say it's much better at night time thank you guys so much for watching
please remember it's nice to be nice on youtube i'll see you in the next video prince charming out
