And out in California, Knott's Berry Farm has been doing Knott's Scary Farm (Knott's Halloween Haunt) for 42 years. The only thing Universal has that Knott's doesn't is that they're a movie studio so they have access to better and more makeup artists and better props/costumes.
tbh i'm sick of hearing about how "great" universal's is
related to universal though, california's got into trouble recently

not to mention last year's controversy

which personally i'm kind of getting tired of universal and knott's being a bunch of pussies and not standing up for satire and the fact that californians are a bunch of sue happy whiny bitches
