Universal's Twitter Account Begs For Followers to Escape the "Devil" - Inside the Magic

Universal Orlando Resorts Twitter account has always been a source of comedy, especially during the coronavirus pandemic. The account is relatable and never takes itself too seriously, which in my opinion bodes well in terms of creating a casual relationship with its guests.

Universal’s Twitter account is always a fun one to follow, but it also provides Guests with all the information they need, and opens up a direct line of communication between Guests and the Park in case anything ever goes wrong or more help is needed. Typically, we see Universal poking fun at Disney on their account. The theme park account even predicted the demise of Disney, which is in 2067, by the way. Of course, that and all of their Tweets are playful jokes and not based on a serious conviction.

Most recently, the theme park popped on social media begging for some more followers, 1000 more, to be exact. Universal Orlando Resort (@UniversalORL) Tweeted:

We need 1000 people to follow us ASAP.

🚨 We need 1000 people to follow us ASAP. 🚨

We quickly wondered why they needed more followers. Were they 1000 people away from a major follower milestone? We looked and that was not the case, however, once we looked at their follower count, we quickly laughed and knew the reason. Universal has 666,000 followers on Twitter, and it seems that they want to get out of the “evil” realm of 666. 666 is usually used to signify the devil, which may be perfect for the Halloween Horror Nights account, but not this one!

At the moment, Revenge of the Mummy is also under a massive refurbishment at Universal Studios Florida. That being said, Guests can still enjoy attractions such as Rip Ride Rockit, MEN IN BLACK Alien Attack, Transformers: The Ride, and more. Visit Diagon Alley in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, where you can venture into Gringotts!  Islands of Adventure has some fantastic attractions like the new Jurassic World VelociCoaster, Jurassic Park River Adventure, The Incredible Hulk Coaster, Doctor Doom’s Fearfall, The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man, and more! Volcano Bay is also open for those who want to get their splash on, and at the moment, Epic Universe is under construction with a 2025 opening date.
