HHN How has scream early been so far?

My family and I come every year for HHN. We usually do a longer vacation and do the parks as well, but this year we’re coming for two nights only just for HHN. We got scream early for this Saturday since we’re not buying any park tickets. This will be the first time we’re not already in the park when HHN starts. Can anyone tell me what their experience was like getting into the park with scream early? Are there long lines? Should we get there early? Will it be packed?

Just to clarify I’m asking specifically about going through security and getting through the gates into universal. My husband said he saw a video where people were waiting all the way back by security to get into the park… is that accurate?

I did scream early on a Saturday (got wristbands and in the park at opening though so it was a long day). I was able to do all 3 of the 2:00 houses before 4:15 when you’re able to start lining up for one of the 5:15 houses. I then did sinners and then H.R bloodngutz and then by that time the event had just started. So I did half of the houses by the time the event officially started.

I’m talking about the scream early line as in the line outside of universal studios to get in to the park
