1

free weekly newsletter. Subscribe at the link in the show notes,

8
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:37.039
and as always for the news roundup, I'm passing it

9
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:37.640
off to Darryl.

10
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:41.640
Haunts nationwide will open for the first off season events

11
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:44.520
of the new year, with Friday the thirteenth and Valentine's

12
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:48.759
Day offering operating dates from February sixth through February twenty first,

13
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.159
suggesting some haunted houses we'll try to extend the holiday.

14
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:55.039
Keep on listening to hear our full list of over

15
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:58.880
one hundred haunts. Later on in the newsletter, Love is

16
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:03.240
Blind returns to Dark Hour with a new interactive Valentine's mechanic.

17
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:07.120
Dark Hour Haunted House from Plano, Texas is bringing back

18
00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:11.799
Love is Blind on February thirteenth and fourteenth, reintroducing the

19
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:15.400
event with a new interactive mechanic that turns a traditional

20
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:19.599
Blackout Haunt into a choice driven experience. This new version

21
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:24.560
incorporates gameplay elements from Dark Hours Dead by Dark Hour format,

22
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:28.599
asking guests to actively manage how they move through the attraction.

23
00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.439
Rather than simply endure the darkness. Guests must manage a

24
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:35.079
glow stick that helps them to navigate in the dark,

25
00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:38.959
but also draws the scare actors to them, creating strategic

26
00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:42.159
decisions and playful dynamics. I think we'll get some of

27
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:45.120
those situations where in order to distract the monsters from

28
00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:47.840
your partner, you will let your light shine a little bit,

29
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:50.799
says owner and creative director Alan Hopps. Then the monster

30
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:53.680
gets drawn off of them to you. That's the dynamic

31
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:56.120
I really want the actors to play with. The result

32
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:58.959
is interaction not just between the actor and the guest,

33
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.599
but also between the guests themselves. For Hops, the Haunted

34
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:05.439
House itself is only part of the experience. The moments

35
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:09.960
before and after mattered just as much, especially for Valentine's couples.

36
00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:12.439
I want people to be in line between fifteen and

37
00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:15.120
thirty minutes, Hopps said. I think that actually helps the

38
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.759
Haunted House experience because you do have that anticipation you're

39
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.280
watching groups go in, and you're watching how they act

40
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:23.120
as they go in, and then you have a chance

41
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:27.319
to talk about that upcoming experience. This operational philosophy aligns

42
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:30.919
with recent research. A twenty twenty four study from the

43
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:35.639
University of Florida titled Haunted Attraction The Effects of Recreational

44
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:40.560
Fear on Interpersonal Bonding. The key finding bonding happened after

45
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:44.800
the event through talking, laughing, and reflecting together rather than

46
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:48.240
during the experience itself. By designing for fifteen to thirty

47
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:52.759
minutes of anticipation in line and providing prost haunt decompression space,

48
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:56.560
dark hour creates the conditions for what the study identifies

49
00:02:56.599 --> 00:02:59.479
as the most valuable part of the shared fear experience.

50
00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:01.800

86
00:05:16.519 --> 00:05:21.480
proves hotels drive destination resort success. Comcast Theme Parks division

87
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:24.879
cost one billion dollars in quarterly EBITA for the first

time in Q four of twenty twenty five, with much

of the attention focused on Epic Universe's opening, but the

90
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:35.439
most revealing numbers came from hotels. Universal added two thousand

91

rooms in Orlando while raising average daily rates twenty percent

92
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:45.160
and increasing occupancy three percent. The hotel performance signals Universal

93
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:49.399
has successfully transformed Orlando into a destination resort where guest

94
