So a walkthrough attraction for Potter?

I never heard the details personally, but I believe something along those lines was rumored last year. It's another potentially substantive attraction in the lineup, so I'm all for it.

We did talk about it I think a little last year but also thats when they redid the lockers. So glad we might be using this space for something

Its sooooo rare now that this Q part is used, so would be great to have something here. Anything HP should be a huge success

Fun fact, it goes further than FFN2025–had things went as planned financially I have heard it as far back as something they’ve considered for HHN 2024.

This should be fun, quirky, but really fun.

Really hope that this is that Forbidden Forest walk-through that was rumored for HHN 2024. I wonder if they'd have any face characters representing individual film characters guiding you through it though.

Maybe I missed something, but are we expecting an experience at the Star Trek location this year or are we just getting a walkthrough at HP to replace the lost venue?

Ive seen rumors of D&D and Star Trek returning


Not trying to be rude but....I just think FNAF and Fallout as altative attractions to what we got at HHN would be bigger with fans....I just didn't hear much from either fandom that loved either attraction like the One Piece meet and greets or the BBTF attraction

Really annoying that we haven't gotten any info yet. Would happily buy tickets now because I enjoyed the last one so much.

I agree it would be nice to know more

I think they are waiting for January, USH only has so much news through the year and right now they want to focus on Grinchmas and then will move into Fan Fest Mode until May...then we will hear about the Summer event....and then in the summer because they have to mix in it being the Summer event and we get HHN news

But I'm also not a fan sometimes of how News comes out of USH....we literally learned about Chainsaw man show at HHN....like 2 maybe 3 weeks before the event

Also speaking on how the information comes out would be nice for them to provide event guides like Disney with all the food, merch, characters and extra things going on

Yeah, I think this is just a product of the calendar. This is a huge time of year for USH and I understand wanting to capitalize on Grinchmas while they've got it. I expect we'll hear more about Fan Fest in the next couple weeks.

Think part of it is also they don’t have to worry now on if they need to for information early to get people’s attention too.

Now that they see the event is successful, they’re gonna treat things more like HHN. And I do think we’ll see more in a few weeks—but I also think they may need to be mindful of the property if there is any other announcements that need to be made.

 

[Jerroddragon]

Since we are in speculation mode

Right now some of the best guess and wishes


1) Anime show in Dreamworks (my hero and Jojo both have movies ready to go)
2) D&D
3) Star Trek
4) Scooby Do
5) Rumored HP walkthrough attraction
6) Yoshi and other meet and greets in SNW
7) SNW Drone show? Was cut last yeah
8) Castle show returning
9) Fantastic beasts meet and greets?
10) Something in the Plaza either music or K pop Demon Hunter show (fan made rumor and want)
11) Once Piece show at WW
12) Anime meet and greet, either One Piece again or maybe MHA or whatever anime is in the dreamworks theater
13) BTTF returning in some way? Since it was the most liked expedience from last year

I agree to a point, I think HHN is the exception to the rule but for me Disney is selling out meh after dark events because they literally tell people about the event before tickets are on sale. I don't think it would hurt the event to promote it starting next month, maybe make it a fun event where you do weekly drops of information

Love USH but I think the need to find a better way to communicate to guests about events. We got a new Singing show at Grinchmas....and I didn't see it announced at all along with new who's in the area. Would it really cost that much to have make your social media presents bigger and do event guides and make the announcements for HHN and Fan fest like on a certain day every week. I just think this would help them get messaging out better then the random drops they do
