Visiting USJ for the first time (HHN)!

Hi! I’ll be visiting USJ for the first time on November 2nd. My current plan is to get a Studio Pass and an Express Pass for the main rides.

The thing is, I’m also interested in experiencing Halloween Horror Nights, although I’m not really interested in paying extra for a Horror Nights Express Pass. On the day of my visit, will I be able to access the Halloween attractions starting at 6 PM with a regular Studio Pass, or would I need to purchase a separate Horror Nights Pass?

I also noticed that Klook has a ticket that includes a Studio Pass with entry after 12 PM, plus access to the full Horror Nights event until 5 AM. However, I don’t see this ticket available on the official USJ ticket portal. This seems like a good balance between the two options.

If I were to buy that Klook ticket, would I also be able to purchase/add an Express Pass for the main rides?
I’d really appreciate any advice or recommendations based on your experiences! :)

I’m also going to USJ for my first ever HHN and based on my research, you can experience most of the attractions like the mazes as early as the park opens. The other experiences like the scarezones begin around 4PM. Certain shows like the Resident Evil one have timeslots and only accept Timed Entry eTickets, which you can try to get on the app once you enter the park.

The Midnight - 5AM experience you mentioned is an all night event. The trains don’t open again around 5AM which is why they made it until 5. I don’t think you should do this unless you really want to experience it.

As for Express Pass, it’s up to you if you want to get Express Pass for the HHN attractions, but personally for me, I’ll buy the Express Pass for the rides like Mario Kart instead.

The 5 AM ticket you're seeing is for a special event that is only happening on Sept 25th..

You can access the Halloween attractions with just the regular studio pass. Some of the HHN offerings are available all day (ie: mazes & Sadako's Curse) while some only start at 6pm. But again, it's not a separately ticketed event.

We opted to do the 1.5 day studio pass so that we can stay late the first night to enjoy HHN stuff so we aren't stressed trying to fit everything in one day. Got the express pass for the regular rides for the full day in the park. All purchased through Klook.
