Yeah... that's not happening. :D

They already have 2 nighttime shows at DLR and one across the way.

A showing of your failings to avoid dreamcrushers.

It's actually a reference to portal 2.

Did a quick post lunch trip today and HMH doesn't have any big changes this year (other than the usual gingerbread house which I am guessing has some metal supports baked into the dough (since they claim that's real). More wreaths, and bows though.

Was the gingerbread house different than last year?

The gingerbread house is different every year, this year no zombie cookies and it's arguably a little less complex than last year's (the house opens up like a monster head and the weathercock spins to the "evil side" to signify the change)

It seems way emptier this year than it did last year. I wonder if a lot of people didn't renew their passes or something.

Really? That's quite a surprise. I have a feeling not many renewed their passes with the price hikes but I don't blame them.

Possibly, I'll have to check back next time since (going by the halloween events) it's a week early this year. Last year it's not out of the question to see an hour+ wait for ghost galaxy on a weekday.

How can she expect to pass her required internship courses if she can't even bring us coffee? :D
