You do realize we’re literally living through history in the making? This Halloween Horror Nights is one for the books and will set a new standard for all future ones.

The BEST seat on Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey? Here’s the one I pick every time.

When you’re facing the ride vehicle, grab the second seat from the left — the inside seat on the left side.

It puts you right in the sweet spot where the screens, practical sets, Dementors, spiders and all the chaos feel more immersive and interactive.

But I know Harry Potter fans are about to tell me I’m wrong. So what’s the best seat on Forbidden Journey — 1, 2, 3 or 4? Pick one and defend it.

If a medieval Hot Pocket existed, it would be The Wizard’s Wonder at Six Ravens.

The food? It’s OK. But the theming and experience make it worth checking out, especially with kids.

We got lucky at Universal studios and caught the night staff for HHN. They had Halloween Horror Nights employee shirts on.

I just want to say Thank you for your service!

I don’t even like shepherd’s pie… so explain why these Shepherd’s Fries at Universal had me speaking with an Irish accent after one bite. Either they’re ridiculously good… or there’s actual magic in those potatoes. 🍟☘️

10/10. I’d order them again before I could finish saying “top o’ the mornin’.”

Moving sucks… but having to drive past this every day makes it worthwhile.
