House design continues to be impressive, the scares are the same... really dependent on your timing. It does appear that this year they are using more boo holes (but the same actor) so they can continually scare you multiple times... making the houses a bit scarier.
However, the event really needs a shakeup when it comes to entertainment, scare zones and most importantly operations. They still operate the event like they've always done... which is not great for the "world's greatest halloween event" in my opinion. I echo @MagicHappens1971 thoughts when it comes to operations, Universal will never reach WDW crowds not because of their quality, but because they operationally can't match that level due to poor management.
The event really needs to reconsider how they approach operating the event. There are some cosmetic changes this year that I appreciate (new shirts for TMs, barricade covers, etc.), but there's something fundamentally wrong.
The bulk of HHN's problems can be fixed with 2 additional entertainment offerings, in my opinion.
