ORLANDO - A group of mothers is complaining about billboards promoting Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights. They're too horrible, the moms say.
Metro Orlando Mommies wrote a letter this week, asking the park to tone down its advertising, particularly the blood-dripping billboards.
Group member Erin Heston says publicity for the Halloween festivities "glamorizes violence and human cruelty."
Universal spokesman Michael Lewellen says the park wants the billboards to be fun, entertaining and communicate what the event is about.
