Fear and Beer: A Halloween Horror Nights Podcast

It’s that time of year again… our WAAAAAY too early Halloween Horror Nights predictions are back!
And yes, we hear you: “It’s barely December, what the hell?” But around here, it’s never too early to start theorizing.
Last year we threw out some wild guesses; Jason, FNAF, even Hatchet and Chains and somehow nailed a few along the way.
Can we pull off another Hail Mary this season? We won’t know until August, but the speculation starts right now!

The season has officially come to a close and the votes are locked in! That can only mean one thing… it’s time for the illustrious Fear and Beer HHN Awards! From your Listener Awards to Best House, all the way to the highly coveted and infamous Broken Toilet Award, we’re honoring it all. So suit up, grab a seat, and join us as we shower this incredible event with one final bouquet of praise!

The wait is over! We’re back with Part 2 of our Halloween Horror Nights 34 finale, and this time we’re diving into what everyone’s been itching for....The Houses!
We’ve been discussing these houses for almost a year now so let's see where each one stands!

What started as a simple one episode send off quickly turned into a two-parter! There was just too much to unpack without rushing it, so this week kicks off our Final Thoughts: Part 1!
The fog has settled, the lights have dimmed, but there’s still plenty left to say about Halloween Horror Nights 34.
Join us as we dive into our overall impressions of the event and be sure to tune in next week for Part 2, where we’ll break down all 10 haunted houses in detail!

Now that HHN34 is in full swing, it’s time to look back and see how it stacks up against last year’s event. From house lineups and scare zones to overall vibes.
Which year truly takes the crown?
Was HHN33’s nostalgia and lineup unbeatable, or did HHN34 raise the bar even higher with its creativity and energy?
Grab a drink, join the fog, and let’s settle the score once and for all!

This week we are going to be dropping a donation only based episode to help out a great friend and fellow weenie Dad in need. 
 
Helping Pups originated from The Catacombs of Halloween Horror Nights long standing history of giving back to the community and we’re teaming up with them, Kenneth from Pangolin and Rush of Fear, Michael from Hallowed Thrills and Dakota from Cathode Coaster and Horror Nights Gauntlet to give back on our end! 
 
Keep your 👀 peeled on our socials for when this episode drops and how to donate/access this amazing 2.5 hour long discussion! 
 
We are taking everyone’s HHN34 Mid-Season House Rankings, smashing it all together and discussing where the houses landed! 
All money raised will be going directly to Alex to help combat the mountain of veterinarian bills. 
 
Thank you for always having our backs; Now it’s our turn to have the backs of others when we can.

How are we already halfway through the best time of the year?!
HOW?!
That being said, it’s time to check in and see where all the houses stand for us right now.
Reminder: these rankings are based purely on our own experiences. Your list may look completely different and that’s the fun of it!
Will things shift before the final rankings? Oh, absolutely. (And let’s be real—they probably will)
 

This is a tough episode to do this year because everything is top notch!
However, we do need to look every detail and think "Could this have been done better?" or "How do we take this and improve it for next year?"'
We go into the Food and Beverage, Scare Zones, Street Experiences, Houses and Shows!

We’ve hit the streets, we’ve braved the houses, and now it’s time to reflect!
 
In this episode, we look back at our Hype Lists and see how our expectations are stacking up so far. While it’s not time for a full re-rank just yet, we’ll break down what’s risen, what’s fallen, and what’s surprised us most this year!

We came, we saw, we kicked its ass!
And just like that we are back in the fog, tearing through the houses, hanging in the scare zones and soaking up all the sights and sounds! What a time to be alive!
We spent Thursday to Sunday in the parks and we have A LOT to talk about!
