Halloween Horror Nights: Jack's Back
Recommended Videos
A big announcement from Universal Orlando, as its team members prepare for the biggest night of Halloween Horror Nights 2. They posted a YouTube video today:
Thanking guests and reliving some of the chills, like the clown trick-or-treater from the Halloween house.
Then something weird happens. A familiar face appears in a psychedelic scene as seen below.
Yep. That sure LOOKS like Jack -- one of the most enduring Scareactors in the Universal repertoir. Here's what he looks like in the flesh.
Jack hasn't been seen in a few years. But it is not a big reach to expect to see him at:
If I am not mistaken, those dates (Sept. 25-Oct 31, 2015 ) will mean a few less days to face your fears.
This year's event stretched over 28 days. It started on Sept. 19th and runs through Nov. 1st.
Here's Universal's video below.

I'll keep you posted as I here more. But expect HHN25 to be the biggest yet. A couple of more quick updates. Kudos to our friends at I-Drive 360. The Orlando Eye tweeted this picture today showing that the attraction's inner ring is complete.
Now they start on the outer ring that will stretch the Eye to 400 feet, as well as hanging the passenger capsules. The Eye opens next Spring.
Finally, FunSpot America on I-Drive opened a new ride today: Air Raid.
And there aren't many rides like this out among the theme parks and carnivals yet.
Here's video of it in motion.

That's all for this week. Have a safe Halloween.
