I think there's more meat
left on the doll than there is on this guy.
If you ever need a barrel o'
heads, they've got you covered.
Mmmm, beefy!
If there's a hell where all
severed limbs go, this must be it.
Skinned alive and preserved
for a midnight snack.
Leatherface kept reaching
out for people, presumably because he wanted a hug.
This Leatherface was hiding
up top on some perch and made a few people jump.
Hey PETA! Leatherface laughs
in your general direction.
JAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWS!
After completing all three
of the badass new mazes, we hopped aboard
the "Terror Tram" for a horror-themed tour of the studio.
Neon Chainsaw Clowns...
gotta love that hairdo.
This girl had a sore throat,
so I kept away. Didn't want to get sick or anything...
Checking in to the Bates
Motel?
The room service here is
awful.
Thankfully, it wasn't
actually 5 miles away... we had already done enough walking.
Believe it or not, Jason is
an Eagle Scout and had his tent ready to go.
And another Jason was
reenacting that same sleeping bag scene once again.
Blue moooooooon... you
saw me standing alone...
Jack didn't appreciate
people trespassing on his lot.
The set from "War of the
Worlds" was turned into a huge accident scene on Elm Street!
A random TV scattered
amongst all the debris was reporting about the
tragedy on Elm Street. Notice the news station is called "W.A.K.E."? Nice.
The flight attendants from
the giant plane crash had seen better days...
...but at least they were in
better shape than this poor bastard.
And to see us off, there was
the shadow of Freddy standing in the doorway.
All in all,
this was probably the best major Halloween attraction I've attended in
ages. The Eyegore Awards were a blast and the new Halloween Horror Nights
mazes were truly top-notch stuff. Each of the mazes really helped recreate
the worlds of Freddy, Jason and Leatherface... doing each character
justice. I can't urge you guys enough to check it out. There's also one in
Orlando for those of you who are closer to the East Coast, but I can't
comment on how good that one is compared to the one here at Universal
Studios. Still, I imagine it's gotta be pretty damned good. Either way, do
yourselves a favor and check out Halloween Horror Nights this October
because there's no guarantee Freddy, Jason and Leatherface will be back
again next year. After all, they could potentially suffer the same fate as one of the
other best attractions ever to appear at Universal Studios...
NEVER FORGET!
