It's February. We've survived Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's which means there's only one thing left to do… Start talking HHN 35! After months of tiny breadcrumbs and whispered rumors floating around the HHN universe, today's the day we finally dive in. Is Stranger Things actually making a comeback? Could HHN land a potential Oscar-winning movie this year? Is Jack back?....again Only time will tell… but it's officially rumor season, and we're talking ALL about it. Let's get into it. 

With HHN 35 fast approaching, we wanted to take a look back at the history of anniversary event at Halloween Horror Nights Orlando. HHN has executed their anniversaries in varied ways over the years and it has left some mixed results. We'll break down what these celebrations entailed from haunted houses to special one-off experiences. Want to be on the show? Leave us a voicemail!

Send us a textOn today's episode of Haunt Graveyard, we're taking you behind the screams and into the daylight as we explore highlights from Universal's HHN 31 Unmasking the Horror Tour.We break down two fan-favorite haunted houses:

Rumor season did not wait for us during our short absence. We already have plenty of rumored properties to discuss. Some, like Hellraiser and Stranger Things feel like strong possibilities. Then there are properties like Sinners, which came out of nowhere, but would be a huge crowd pleaser. However, there are some that feel flat out made up or just a pipe dream cough IT / Welcome to Derry cough. We will discuss them all and talk about how likely we think they may be. We also received official event dates for Halloween Horror Nights 35 in Orlando.Want to be on the show? Leave us a voicemail!

The time has come for our now seemingly annual Halloween Horror Nights Guess Map episode!  Somehow, over the past two years, we've lucked (or maybe skill'd?) our way into nailing a few of these picks, so let's see how many we can call this year.   Every property on this map is pure guess work on our end. We put this together back in December before most of the rumors even started swirling.   Think we missed something? Have a prediction of your own? Drop it in the comments and let's talk HHN!

We've been looking forward to experiencing Universal Orlando's brand-new Epic Universe: Dark Universe for well over a year, and finally we made it! Walking through the fog into Darkmoor Village felt like stepping inside a classic monster movie. We rode Curse of the Werewolf and were blown away by Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment. There's a reason all the vloggers keep praising this attraction. We also share our thoughts on food, merchandise, characters, and atmosphere. Meeting the NEW Bride and Frankenstein in person was the perfect ending to an unforgettable visit. Next, we joined our friend Tati Perez for a wet and wild time at Halloween Horror Nights Orlando, where ten haunted mazes awaited us—and nonstop Florida rain. But hey - it's a story! We each share our Top 3 horror mazes. Five Nights at Freddy's topped our list with its creepy animatronics, while others impressed with their artistic environments. Between mazes, we wandered through eerie “Scare Zones” like The Cat Lady of Crooked Lane, where trick-or-treaters slowly turned into feral cats under glowing jack-o'-lanterns. What's not to love about spooky season!! There are 4 other “lands” or “portals' at Epic Universe, but to keep to our Halloween theme, we focued on Dark Universe in this episode. To hear more about our entire trip, including our Skywalking Meet-up, Ministry of Magic attraction, and How To Train Your Dragon: Isle of Burke, watch our Livestream dated 10/13.

Hunter gathers his thoughts on the house lineup for HHN 34 and shares his mostly spoiler free current rankings. He also briefly discusses going standby after years of express and general event impressions.

We're nearing the halfway point of Halloween Horror Nights 34 in Orlando. So, what better time to give our updated rankings? Let's see what houses have shot up our lists and which are starting to disappoint. Is Terrifier still divisive? Can Five Nights at Freddy's work it's way up our rankings? Will Wyatt Sicks continue to hold strong? Of course, we have to finally present our scarezone rankings too. After a few lackluster years, is this the return of a strong scarezone lineup? HHN always evolves throughout the season.

High on Maine's Mt. Katahdin, the Appalachian Trail ends in a place wrapped in mystery—and haunted by a storm spirit. Hikers whisper about sudden fog, eerie moans in the wind, and the sense of eyes watching from the Knife's Edge ridge. The Wabanaki people know who it is: Pamola, the ancient birdlike guardian said to punish anyone who dares disrespect the mountain. Is he a cryptid, a god, or something else? Spectral moose sightings, violent storms, and eerie winds all carry his name. And when skies turn from clear to chaos in a heartbeat, locals say it's Pamola reminding you this isn't just a climb—it's sacred ground.
