After taking some time off, Undead Ed and Alvarowise the Dancing Clown are back to bring you all the news, speculation, and discussion EXCLUSIVELY for Universal Studios Hollywood's Halloween Horror Nights that you've been dieing to hear. First, they break down all the new announcements since their last recording - including Insidious: The Further, Ghostbusters Frozen Empire, and Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines as headlining mazes. Are these IPs going to get the coveted Horror Nerds thumbs up, or is this year shaping up to be a ghastly let down? Then, just when you think you've had all the Horror Discussion you can handle, the Nerds recap a recent trip to horror attractions in Las Vegas, detailing their experiences with Tom Develin's Monster Museum, Sliced Pizza, and Escape IT. Did these excursions leave them screaming with terrified delight, or was the real horror how quickly your spending money disappears at video poker?
