On this week's show, it's week 1 of HHN35 as we dive deep into two of the absolute heaviest hitters on the Halloween Horror Nights 35 lineup at Universal Studios Florida. First up, we venture into the apocalyptic ruins of Stranger Things 5. We break down how Universal brought the epic final season of the Netflix global phenomenon to life—from the decaying landscape of Hawkins and the MAC-Z Military Base to the ultimate showdown with Vecna himself in the Abyss. Does this maze live up to a decade of Stranger Things hype, or did the massive scale fall short? We give you our honest thoughts on the pacing, the Demogorgons, and whether it delivers a satisfying final chapter in the fog. Then, things get beautifully twisted as we step inside the Oddverse for Jack & Oddfellow: Chaos & Control. This house takes us on a reality-shredding journey through the unholy origins of Jack the Clown's rivalry with Dr. Oddfellow. We recap the intense energy, the trippy projection mapping, and what happens when these two legendary icons realize they work better together to create the ultimate deathmatch. Who brought the better scares—Jack's chaos or Oddfellow's control? Visit us at www.CFSAS.com, contact us at [email protected], follow us on BlueSky at @CFSAS, and subscribe to us on YouTube.
