Geodelic Intros Cutting Edge iPhone and Android “App” to Give Guests Free Real-Time Attraction Info at Universal Studios Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights Event

admin October 9, 20091 Comment »

Universal Studios HollywoodSM is partnering with Geodelic to introduce a free mobile onsite application for the theme park’s “Halloween Horror Nights” event, enabling iPhone and Android mobile device users to obtain park attraction directions and minute-by-minute updates and tips, including wait times and show schedules.

Designed to enhance the “Halloween Horror Nights” experience by creating an interactive snapshot of the overall event, the iPhone and Android application will provide guests with continuously updated and relevant information during their onsite visit.  Access to wait times and locations of mazes, scare zone, shows, attractions and restaurants will be easily accessible from anywhere within the theme park throughout the 16-night run of “Halloween Horror Nights.”

“While a traditional website gives a brand marketing reach to users at home, our onsite publishing platform allows businesses and destinations such as Universal Studios to push information that is immediately relevant to customers at their own location,” said Rahul Sonnad, CEO of Geodelic Systems. “Universal is clearly leading the way on mobile technology with this ground-breaking experience, and will provide a showcase for others in the travel, hospitality, and entertainment industries.”

    I thought this app was very cool and a worthwhile thing to download. I took my 2 boys to see the attractions and Universal and this app was great to have while we were standing in line waiting for shows and rides. Gave us a good idea of how long we’d be waiting and gave my boys some things to do instead of fighting (like the jigsaw puzzle) while we waited. Nice job. Very cool indeed
