Welcome to another episode of the HHN Graveyard Show! In this episode, Josh reunites with Billy (SixBillium) to travel halfway across the globe to break down the massive, yet often overlooked, Halloween event at Universal Beijing Resort.

On this show, we move past the language barrier and dive deep into a critical analysis of an event that Josh claims features the single best haunted house Universal has ever created. Josh and Billy share their honest impressions—debating the thesis that "bigger is better" and exploring how silence can be scarier than noise. We discuss the immense scale of the soundstages, comparing the claustrophobia of Orlando to the grandiosity of Beijing, while highlighting the stunning makeup effects and cultural adaptations that set this event apart.

Join us as we explore four massive haunted houses, critique the surprising freedom regarding video recording policies, and geek out over the return of Jack the Clown in a completely new market.

Topics Discussed:

• Beijing vs. The West: We discuss Josh’s thesis that "sometimes bigger is better," analyzing how the massive square footage of the Beijing houses allows for unique scares, mirror tricks, and levitating animatronics that dwarf their American counterparts.
• House Analysis: We deep dive into the four houses: the "Greatest Hits" remix of Monsters Crypt (featuring a levitating mummy), the stunning makeup and folklore of Hua Pi (The Painted Skin), the "Six Flags" aesthetic of Jack’s Circus, and the undisputed champion, House 81, which combines local legend with terrifying silence.
• The "Best House Ever": A focused look at House 81, breaking down why the atmospheric tension, the grand two-story atrium, and the bizarre "feather tickler" scare make this a contender for the best house in Universal history.
• Operations & Atmosphere: We break down the shock of the "open recording" policy that allows fans to film inside houses, the influence of Chinese "Escape Room" culture on the set design, and the accessibility of travel (visas and transit) for American tourists.
• The Verdict: Final thoughts on the house lineup quality versus quantity. We debate whether Beijing goes head-to-head with Orlando on a "pound-for-pound" basis and if the sheer quality of the sets makes the long flight worth it for die-hard fans.

Welcome to another episode of the HHN Graveyard Show! In this episode, Josh and Billy (SixBillium) head to Sin City to break down the debut of Universal’s permanent horror installation, "Horror Unleashed" in Las Vegas.

On this show, we move past the standard map walkthroughs and dive deep into a critical analysis of this new year-round experiment. Josh and Billy share their honest impressions—debating whether this is just "HHN Light" or a unique beast of its own. We discuss the atmosphere inside the Area 15 warehouse, comparing the feel of Vegas to Orlando, while highlighting how the intimate scale allows for unique actor interactions and crowd pulsing.

Join us as we explore four permanent haunted houses, critique the confusing operational policies regarding cameras, and geek out over the return of two major HHN icons.

Topics Discussed:

• Vegas vs. Orlando: Is it just "HHN Light"? We discuss how the smaller crowds allow for intense, intimate scares, but debate if the event lacks the grand scale of the Florida event.
• House Analysis: We deep dive into the four houses: the "Greatest Hits" nostalgia of Universal Monsters, the atmospheric fog of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the incredible scenic design of Exorcist: Believer, and the intense "dust bowl" finale of Scarecrow: The Reaping.
• Show Analysis: A look at the Jack and Chance show, discussing how the bar-side stage allows for chaotic, unscripted moments and close-up character work that isn't possible at the seasonal events.
• Operations & Atmosphere: We break down the initial confusion surrounding the "no cameras" policy, the immersive entry effects, and the quality of the themed food and drinks.
• The Verdict: Final thoughts on the houses, the operational growing pains, and the price point. Is a trip to Vegas worth it for the die-hard HHN fanatic, or is this a "one-and-done" visit?
