Jason McManus

@adamfromtpw I feel grateful to have played my part, but really we are all very lucky that Universal Orlando has such great leadership that believes in things like this show - bringing it back was no question. A lot of unsung heroes that are the reason HHN is so great each year.

After taking in 13 shows (and vibing out to it from other corners of the park), I just wanna say thank you @JasonMcManus for bringing back Ghoulish for a 2nd album! It quickly became my favorite part of #HHN34 and I loved bringing my friends for their first ever Haunt-Os! 🧡💜

It's the final night for Haunt-O-Phonic. This show was special for us in so many ways. Going to enjoy the last few performances tonight. Congrats to everyone who helped make this one come together!

@ThemesRenewed @TharinWhite Correct. The version of "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" that you hear in Haunt-O-Phonic is an original composition. Fun fact - Tim Heinz (Composer) and myself sang almost all of the vocals in the show except for "Black Cat." We had a lot of fun with it.

@TharinWhite @JasonMcManus?

Does anyone know, is this version of “Don’t fear the Reaper” an original for Universal? I can’t seem to find this remix if it does exist somewhere.

The view is so wide, we made sure to reward the audience for viewing in different locations. It's impossible to see it all in any one spot.

@SkellyBonesArt @Michael_Aiello I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!

HAUNT-O-PHONIC A GHOULISH JOURNEY MADE ME CRY THIS IS A GENUINE MASTERPIECE THANK YOU @JasonMcManus AND @Michael_Aiello FOR BRINGING BACK THE GREATEST PIECE OF ART THIS EVENT HAS EVER MADE

@WerewolfExec I only wish you could hear the fake weather announcement we made to prank the tech crew working that night. One day...

@JasonMcManus Thank you for bringing it back. You can tell it’s improved upon while keeping the distinct visuals of the original. The addition of Don’t Fear the Reaper in place of Blinding Lights works really well and the exit message is the greatest thing I’ve heard over a loud speaker EVER.

In 2022, Ghoulish only ran for under two weeks. Since then, everything behind the scenes has been replaced. We wanted to give it a proper run, but didn't want to just bring it back - we wanted to make it better - Everything you see had to be painfully recreated from scratch.

Also, new original songs were included, new media, effects that were never there before. It's a tribute to the previous and the opportunity of doing something new, brought to you through incredible dedication and love for fans of HHN.

Please correct me if I’m wrong but I’m 90% sure that was the same show from 2022 with a different title.

Cue the chills 🌝✨ Here’s a peek at Haunt-O-Phonic: A Ghoulish Journey! #HHN34

@iamcg83 I'll let you in on a secret. In every lagoon show we have ever done, we hid a pepperoni pizza in it somewhere. In the Celebration of the Olympics show, we replaced one single gold medal with a pizza. I dare you to find it in this one. It's in there, just very well hidden.

@JasonMcManus Pizza Ball…

We're hitting one of these buttons tonight. Let's see what it does.. 💀 #HHN34 #HHN2025 #hauntophonic

@hexbylex Scary Mode, coming your way!

@JasonMcManus I WANT SCARY MODE

@derekdeal Now Tayne I can get into.

@JasonMcManus Can I get a hat wobble?

@ItsTheBoat You and me both!

@JasonMcManus I am so so so excited to have a fountain show back. This is gonna be rad as hell.

Only 4 more days! Putting the final touches on as we speak. Finally got to just sit back and enjoy watching through everything last night and - WOW!! We can not wait to unleash this one to the world! #HHN34 #HauntOPhonic #horrornightsorl #themeparks #Halloween

@goonie5555 Something spooky. You'll have to see for yourself.

@JasonMcManus What is this going to be? 🎃

@SkellyBonesArt I really hope you enjoy it!

@JasonMcManus It's so beautiful Jason I'm so blessed to see my baby return, I can't wait to see it opening night 😭😭🎃🎃💜💜💜

@themeparktrib Wait a minute... I love that idea.

@JasonMcManus Heck, just hire the real Aerosmith members, they’re not that busy these days.

Just imagine if Rock 'n' Roller Coaster had a walk-around Aerosmith giving out guitar picks and backstage passes on closing day... Start demanding this now! Let our voices be heard!!
