One is a bit pricey that includes "front line" privileges for nearly 200 dollars more (and some lame souvenirs I could careless about LOL) ... then the next level down .. that includes just about everything else .. plus breakfast the next morning .. for some $225 for two people. So .. if anyone has done this ... any comments .. different pricing you may have found elsewhere .. would be great to know. Thanks

We got the Haunted Hotel package, which is the middle package, and it was $239 flat fee (all taxes included), which is not a bad deal, since it comes with 2 meals, admission to Haunt, the room and some more goodies. www.knottshotel.com
Originally Posted By oc_dean ^^^^ I think it's a good deal darkbeer when you add up all the individual costs of everything. * The Haunt itself for about 48 bucks per person. * The dinner at Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Rest. about 16 per person * The breakfast the next day * which would place the remaining cost for hotel about 100. (Average cost for any hotel) .. and still some nice amenities beyond that.... it looks like a good deal. I didn't know if there was anything thing else that beats that .... through Travelocity or some other discounter ...but $239 for all that for two people ain't bad!

I found out the hotel does not offer the Oct 15th, which is what I was looking to do.

I hope they mean the next day. At 1am after park closing .. I don't want to be thinking of having breakfast ... I want to make a bee line for the hotel, sleep through the night .. and have breakfast at a NORMAL time.
