We’ve been to a lot of theme parks all over the world, so we know better than most that time is often quite literally money.

Was it worth $349/person?

For most, the holiday season brings an end to the spooky season…but for Laurel's House of Horror, there’s always a little bit of scary to go hand-in-hand with the merry. This home-grown haunt rang in the holiday season with a traditionally chilling twist, pulling together a spectacular holiday experience with its 2024 “Christmas Nightmare” event…so of course, we had to bring back Tim’s holiday character, Twinkle Coldstone, to mark the occasion!

Season’s Greetings from the Sweetest Place on Earth! We’ve taken to formally kicking off our holiday season with a late November visit to Hersheypark for their annual Christmas Candylane event, and we were excited to continue that tradition this year. Normally, we plan a “snack crawl” that takes us all over the park for both sweet and savory seasonal treats. This year, however, the savory offerings seemed to be more limited…so we instead built an itinerary around the events, the characters and the experiences offered throughout the park.
When we were planning our itinerary for our summer trip to Orlando, Disney’s Hollywood Studios was not on our radar. Although Disney’s Hollywood Studios isn’t our favorite of the four Walt Disney World parks, it does have some of our favorite attractions - including MuppetVision 3D, Tower of Terror, Rise of the Resistance and more…so we were excited to be able to spend an impromptu day at the park!
