Disney World's Top Rival Tries to Scare Its Way to the Top
Halloween is a special time of year for Comcast's (NASDAQ: CMCSA) Universal Orlando. Halloween Horror Nights 27 kicks off tonight, greeting as many as tens of thousands of guests on select event nights to a scare fest complete with nine haunted houses, five scare zones, and two signature stage shows.
We may be a month and a half from the actual Halloween holiday, but it's never too early to scare up some profits. Visitors pay as much as $109.99 for a one-night ticket, paying as much as $139.99 on top of that if they don't want to wait in long lines for the themed walk-throughs. Throw in the gobs of money spent on food, specialty cocktails, and event merchandise and it's probably an educated guess that Comcast is making more money at night than it is during the day.
Larger rival Disney (NYSE: DIS) knows that all too well, having started its own hard-ticket event -- Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party -- in late August this year. It's never too early to lean on tricks if you're Comcast or treats if you're Disney.
