Waaaay back in October, we celebrated Clay's big THREE-O!!!!!!! He really wanted to go to Halloween Horror Nights in Universal so we asked our travel buddies Dustin & Gilberto to come along for the fun! I was TERRIFIED but it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be and most importantly, Clay had an absolute blast!
Basically, the park is open until super late at night for all the normal rides and they have made some of the studios and buildings into themed haunted houses...and there are like 15 of them. They really go all out to decorate and also have staff members dressed up and walking around to scare you as you go through the park. When we went through the houses, I NEVER went first and held on to Clay's arm and Dustin's jacket in front of me the entire time (yes, I'm such a wuss!) If you ever go, we recommend the Fast Pass so you can cut in front of everyone waiting to get into the houses (several hours per house). It was more than the actual ticket but it was SO worth it!
I insisted that we go to the Guest Services counter and get birthday buttons (like we did for mine) so I got one for Clay & I.
In line for the Michael Myers house (below). Everyone in the house wore that mask and at the end, you had to walk through a room in a single file line and the aisle was LINED WITH THEM standing and staring at you from all sides. I made it out just fine...by screaming and running with my eyes closed.
On Clay's actual birthday, our awesome neighbor Heidi made Clay this fantastic pumpkin layered cake! They are the best!
I can't believe we both celebrated our 30th birthdays at Universal Studios in 2014!
