    I did the AM/PM tour on Thursday Sept 20th.  Here's the houses we did and what I remembered.  Potential MINOR spoilers as I'll try to say what room were and weren't allowed for photos.

     

    AM - the back of the park

    • Trick R Treat - photos of the facade and the first room or two were allowed...then the room that was outside with the ghost sheets.
    • Seeds of Extinction - I think EVERYTHING was fair game for pictures.
    • Quick stop by Dead Exposure to take pics of the facade and in the tent out front and stuff.

    PM - the sound stages

    • Poltergeist - Facade, super dark entry, and Carol Anne outside the TV transition room.
    • Stranger Things - Forest Scene with Castle Byers and the "portal" room in the research facility.
    • Carnival Graveyard - Hard to explain the rooms, but there was one or maybe two you weren't allowed pics in.  Not sure why.
    • Scary Tales - This was a big disappointment!  You were only allowed pics of the facade, super dark entry way, and then the Rapunzel room.  You'd think the Rapunzel room, which is extremely violent and contains a character from a disney movie, would be one of the offlimit ones and no clue why Humpty Dumpty wasn't allowed.  REALLY wished they switched this with Slaughter Sinema.  

     

    Still upset about the new policy and REALLY mad that they had original rooms you couldn't take pictures of (including virtually an entire house) but the pictures allowed in the IPs were a nice surprise and a good compromise.  I didn't do the tour last year because I was too pissed about the policy change, but had done it probably the last 5-7 years before that.

     

     

    Looked at your Flickr! Glad you still posted ones from all over.

  2. I don't think this was mentioned yet, but I have noticed a direct reference to the number "21" in several places this year, a la 2003 with the "13" references. The latest e-mail that Universal sent did state the following: " House Secrets: Keep your eyes open as you explore each house. Lady Luck has left her calling card throughout. You may have to look more than once to see al of the evil she has unleashed." So far, we've found:

    1) H.R. Bloodenguts: Holidays of Horror - WKNB 21 from Carey, Ohio (nice touch)

    2) The Thing - there is a deck of playing cards on a shelf across from the pool table with the death hand (Q/A spades) laying out.

    3) Nightingales: Blood Prey - there is a deck of playing cards on a crate in a medical tent half-way through with the death hand laying out.

    I'm sure that there is a direct reference in each house - has anyone found others yet? We spent a good deal of time looking this past Friday, but only found these three so far. I'm really enjoying this year's theming of luck and choice, especially with how they tied the eight houses into involving Lady Luck's presence. Following the fate of these individuals, as we walk through their stories, is quite exciting. I can't wait to see how the event evolves over the next month!

    The In-Between Comic book cover has Issue #21 on it!

  3. The jazzy tune was never identified, so we kinda let it go as a piece of stock music from Universal. We tried so many times to figure out the name, but got nowhere. If you want the short 15-25 sec clip, I have it ripped from the site, I could upload to mediafire and post the link to anyone who wants it.

    Jeramy: I was thinking the same thing, I tried to tag the song but nothing showed up. It does sound familier though. Im in the process of checking through all my Midnight Syndicate and Nox Arcana to find a match, but so far I found nothing. It may be from a movie score, but also, with the new THING movie on its way, it could possibly be a piecing from the new score. If thats the case, we have to wait until at least October 10th or 12th til the actual score album is released (this happened before in 2009 with the Wolfman). Most likely the queue might play the teaser trailer to the new film. If thats the case, I'm already one step ahead, as I have ripped the audio from an HD version of the Thing trailer to the new film.

    Hopefully more to come as the event draws nearer to opening night.

    L.J.M.

    Could you please Upload the 15-25 second clip? Even though that is a short amount of time, it is still a great song!
