i havnt been to the one at universal, but the one at bush gardens and disney are fantastic. i went to the Mickeys nss party last october and it was a real laugh. me and my boyfriend dressed up for the occasion and got to ride all the best rides at night and it wasnt too busy however you do have to behave like a big kid because its very child orientated but you do get to take loads of sweets home for free.
The halloween party at bush gardens is the best out of the two. we arrived at eight oclock just in time for opening and headed straight for shikra where we got to ride it on our own twice in the dark, baring in mind we had never been on it before and it was sooo scary (better at night than in the day) then headed for the kumba and the river rapids where again we got to go on both twice on our own. there are loads of themed houses to enjoy around the park as well (bit like the passage of terror at blackpool) and watch out, cause things jump out at you from behind bushes and walls.
def a must do, even just to ride the best rides at night.

i hear there is somethin like that at seaworld were they do a trick or treat night wer u can loads of sweets aswell

not too sure bout seaworld, the only ones i know of are universal, wdw and bush gardens. but wdw is best if you have kids however the universal and bush gardens nights dont recommend children under twelve to go and have one set price for tickets.

Check this site out HHN 17 (http://forum.hhnvault.com/index.php?showforum=29)

Also see my trip report about HHN 15 in 2005 (http://www.thedibb.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=97440)

We have been to Universal and if you havent been before i would deffinately reccomend a visit just to experience the American way of celebrating Haloween but we found that once you have done it a couple of times it all seems the same, The one at Seaworld is a trick or treat type of theme where generally it seemed to us that they have stop off points where they give the kids loads of sweets and apart from the odd skeleton spread about it didnt seem any different to any normal evening in the park maybe there was something else on and we missed it

We did the Halloween night 2005, it was great, even though i was petrified most of the time!!
Usually around July time Universal start advertising this, you can buy tickets online before you go, but last time we got tickets for the opening night just a few days before it.
We also got a discount on the tickets because we already had Orlando Flextickets, im sure the price ended up $62 each.
Definetly worth going to, were going again this year.
