  1. In 2012 they had "Street Experiences" on the web site. This is what they have now:

     

    This fall, the streets of Universal Studios Florida® come alive with hordes of horrifying mutants, monsters and maniacs. Explore terrifying haunted houses, brave multiple creature-filled scare zones, enjoy outrageous live shows, and experience many of the park’s most exciting rides and attractions.

     

    They are careful not to reveal details like number of houses, zones and shows, or which attractions are open, but clearly there are saying there will be zones.

    Isn't it a shame Die-in was booted from its original location? And all for a show...

     

    The Carnage Returns was more than worth it. It was the best show I've seen at HHN in years, I even broke tradition on the final night to see that last Carnage show rather than the last B&T.

     

    Frankly, as much as I loved Die-In, even if they had scrapped the zone altogether in order to do the show it still would have been worth it.

  3. Why I think it is The Exorcist.

     

    Old School female animated Disney Character who has appeared in cell, computer and stop motion... Minnie Mouse.

     

    Something you can purchase in either a jewelry store or a music store... a pearl. i.e. Pearl Drums.

     

    Thus Minnie Pearl. Something associated with this person forever will make the IP obvious... her catch-phrase:

     

     

    As in Captain Howdy.

     

    Of course, Murdy never said the third code word was the same house to announce today..... so IF he's really being carny the clues and the announce could be two different houses and it may still be Krampus.

     

    But I'm sure the third code word is The Exorcist.

    Just wondering if anyone has a full rumored line-up yet? Sorry if it has already been posted, I couldn't see one. If it isn't supposed to be shared can somebody pm me with it? I know by now someone usually has a good idea what the line-up is. 

     

    As a matter of fact, this year we have not had such a major leak. Certain people who used to receive inside information have declined to do so this year (blinks eyes), and I have heard some whispers through the grapevine that those who may have actually leaked such info in the past are under tighter scrutiny and have been made to sign more binding Non-Disclosure Agreements. This makes such leaks more difficult to acquire. Although that may not stop the leakage from eventually occurring.

     

    However back in January a list of 8 houses was posted on HHN Rumors, and one of those has now been officially confirmed: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre based on the original 1974 film.

    Does that mean the other 7 houses on that list will also happen? Personally, I believe that list was NOT obtained by any sort of leaked info but was compiled through a combination of trend analysis, speculation, and wishful thinking. My own thinking on that list is that some of those houses may very well be accurate, but not all of them.

     

    For the record the other 7 houses from that January list are:

     

    The Walking Dead - based on season 6 of the program.

    Ash vs Evil Dead

    American Horror Story

    The Purge - likely based on the upcoming Election Year film.

    Krampus

    A house based on the films of Alfred Hitchcock 

    A house based on the Cthulhu Mythos stories of H.P. Lovecraft

     

    In addition to that list of 8 houses there have been many other rumors. It has been strongly rumored that there will be 9 rather than 8 houses and the rumored 9th location is the Men in Black extended queue area. That location would present some interesting logistical problems if indeed it is used.

     

    There have been two rumors of original houses one with some sort of "Western" theme, the other the Chupacabra house that was scrapped in 2012. It may be possible that if these rumors are accurate that these could be the same house.

     

    All the remaining rumors are IPs, I have heard all manner of speculation and rumor about the following:

     

    The Exorcist

    The Conjuring

    Tremors

    Penn & Teller - either a house or a show

    Killer Klowns from Outer Space

    Phantasm

    Jeepers Creepers

    Candyman

    Green Inferno

     

    Thus by my count there have been 19 different house rumors, one of which has actually been officially confirmed.

    After watching an old video of HHN 13's All Nite Die In maze/house, I find it interesting that the way the classic horror/slasher IP mazes are being presented for the Orlando event is pretty much identical to the order in which they appeared in that maze.. starting with Halloween in 2014, then Freddy vs. Jason last year (even starting the maze off with Jason/Crystal Lake then transitioning to Freddy/1428 Elm Street like in 2003's maze), then Texas Chain Saw rounding it off this year.. I love little co-incidences like this whenever they occur at either Park/event :D 

    But don't expect Scream (first scene in the second Die-In in 2006) anytime soon!!!

  6. Actually Leatherface has been used at HHN in Orlando 4 times. 

     

    A scene in Universal's House of Horror in 1995. A brief cameo in Universal's New Museum of Horror in 1998. A scene in All Nite Die-In in 2003. The house, Texas Chainsaw Massacre: Flesh Wounds in 2007.

     

    That's less times than Jack, The Caretaker, the Director or even the Lord of Darkness.

     

    That's exactly the same number as the Storyteller, The Cryptkeeper, Chucky or Eddie.

    #Classic is curious.  If it didn't have that, I'd say they might be announcing Krampus as I think it came out on Digital this week and the BluRay comes out in 2 weeks.

     

    Ash vs Evil Dead Season 2 doesn't come out until Sept.

     

    The Walking Dead already ended and doesn't come back until Oct.

     

    Nothing going on with Killer Klowns, TCM, or any other rumored IPs that I can think of. 

     

    Nothing seems to really tie into a movie related media campaign.  Maybe it will announce Jack's return...or that there will be a 10th house this year...or the return of Penn & Teller...or something else.  Can't wait to find out.

    Cinemacon is in Vegas right now.

     

    Lionsgate will make a presentation.

     

    Lionsgate is distributing the new TCM film.

     

    So this could be a tie-in with an announcement today.

     

    Possibly.

    Another possibility is Killer Klowns which has been talked about as a tv series quite a bit lately.

     

    Could there be a double announcement?
