Now that HHN34 is in full swing, it’s time to look back and see how it stacks up against last year’s event. From house lineups and scare zones to overall vibes.
Which year truly takes the crown?
Was HHN33’s nostalgia and lineup unbeatable, or did HHN34 raise the bar even higher with its creativity and energy?
Grab a drink, join the fog, and let’s settle the score once and for all!
This week we are going to be dropping a donation only based episode to help out a great friend and fellow weenie Dad in need.

How are we already halfway through the best time of the year?!
HOW?!
That being said, it’s time to check in and see where all the houses stand for us right now.
Reminder: these rankings are based purely on our own experiences. Your list may look completely different and that’s the fun of it!
Will things shift before the final rankings? Oh, absolutely. (And let’s be real—they probably will)
This is a tough episode to do this year because everything is top notch!
However, we do need to look every detail and think "Could this have been done better?" or "How do we take this and improve it for next year?"'
We go into the Food and Beverage, Scare Zones, Street Experiences, Houses and Shows!
We’ve hit the streets, we’ve braved the houses, and now it’s time to reflect!
In this episode, we look back at our Hype Lists and see how our expectations are stacking up so far. While it’s not time for a full re-rank just yet, we’ll break down what’s risen, what’s fallen, and what’s surprised us most this year!
We came, we saw, we kicked its ass!
And just like that we are back in the fog, tearing through the houses, hanging in the scare zones and soaking up all the sights and sounds! What a time to be alive!
We spent Thursday to Sunday in the parks and we have A LOT to talk about!
The grand finale! The hype lists are here!
Opening day is finally upon us, and we’re capping off the One Week Until HHN Podathon with the episode everyone waits for all year.
Where does each house, zone, and show fall in our rankings? Tune in to find out!
Thank you all for riding with us through Podathon week.
We’ll see you in the fog!
The HHN menus just dropped, and we’re serving up all the tasty (and terrifying) details!
From spaghetti pizza to a freakishly long corn dog, we’re dishing on the snacks and sips you’ll want to sink your teeth into this year!
Two worlds collide; Horror and Wrestling!
Nick sits down with Ryzin, a pro wrestler who has lived and breathed horror personas throughout his career. We dive into the history of horror in wrestling, how it works (and struggles) in today’s climate, and even how it could fit right into HHN.
Big thanks to Ryzin for joining the Podathon to give us a first hand experience in both of these worlds!

The one where we get in trouble… kind of. 😈
This fan-favorite episode is where we let loose and throw out our hottest takes. Did we just trash your favorite house? Maybe. Are we sorry about it? Absolutely not.
It’s back! The annual HHN Fantasy Draft!
Each of us will draft a full event lineup:
