Possibly the best scarezone they’ve done in my opinion

Yeah, it was awesome. I liked it as much as the icon zone

I would like to see "PstchoScareapy: Unleashed" again. That was another one from HHN 25.

I hope at least one of them is as fun as the Chucky zone from last year. That might be my favorite since the icon zone at 25.

So i really hate that marketing wont use any icon other then jack because honestly this year would be such a perfect year for the ushers return!

I loved AOV's first show. The second was apparently shorted due to damage from the storm, but I still thought it was great (one of the highlights from my trip that year was getting to interact with one of the members as they were making their way to the stage). Last year though, I didn't care for their show as much. I think it was because of the setting. Bigger stage, needing a bigger "story" to go with the stage. It just didn't feel that same, didn't feel like it had the same audience participation, didn't feel like it had the same feeling of being part of the performance and right in the middle of the action. Nothing against AOV, I like them and would like them to return. I just hope they will return with the same feel of the first two years, and not so much the third. On a personal level, it didn't help that it was the first year without Bill and Ted and I couldn't help but think "this is what they think is worthy of replacing Bill and Ted?"

I thought the exact same thing!

I'm weirdly obsessed with the idea of a house spilling out into the streets as a zone. I thought the Invasion idea would have worked for that. Maybe have an interstellar zoo gone wrong type house and accompanying zone. Maybe that would impact the overall variety of the event though and it would have to be a can't miss idea to pull off successfully, but I think it's possible. Could work for Klowns.

I heard a rumor of a silent hill scare zone. Probably not accurate but I want it LOL

I agree with you, the first two shows were awesome, I had only gone to see AOV last year at least twice, one during opening night and the last during Halloween, I saw those nights I thought they got a big pop you know at least on those dates but yes in the back of my mind though, it sucks that Bill and Ted were not given last year as their proper send off, it would have made so much sense if they'd save it for last year. AOV is better for the outdoor venue because you don't have to sit, you feel connected standing up and just wildin out with the group, I hope they find a new entertainment or least do something better and put something else in the soundstage and have AOV as an outdoor entertainment.

The Originals and House of 1000 Corpses.

I agree. 2016 was a great show by AOV, 2017 was good but would have loved to see what it should have been. Last year, was just OK. As you said, nothing against AOV, but that was just not their style. The Stadium setting wasn't what made the show popular, it was AOV being AOV in an outside environment with the crowd participation. Put them back outside, and let them create their own show and shorten it to about 20 minutes.

I have a love for the Universal Monsters making their return but House Of 1000 Corpses, I just hope they keep the gritty and scary atmosphere that film has and had brought to Hollywood's versions of the film. I hope we get the somewhat same treatment, After seeing Hollywood's version and I'd already experience Rob's version at his Great American Nightmare event, now to actually get Orlando's version in.

Tough to choose. I am very excited for Ghostbusters and am intrigued by how they will do it. After Poltergeist last year, I'm pretty sure they can make it a fun house. Universal Monsters is tied for first and I'm also super interested to see what the underwater house will be like.

To keep discussion going what is everybody’s most anticipated house this year based off the current speculation? I think mine is House of 1000 because of how great the sets should be!

Yes, I'm hoping they all look exactly how they did in Hollywood's house, should be really killer stepping into The Phantom's scene and hearing the loud organ and having him jump out from whatever side. Should be really cool

Thanks. As soon as I read the announcement I was hoping phantom would be in it. With phantom used to being the centerpiece of the Horror Makeup Show and how much they still talk about phantom/Lon Chaney there I thought it would be a great opportunity to use him.
