I missed that event myself but im assuming, lots of strobe effects...an excessive amount...like explosions in a michael bay film! "Hey a&d....how can we redo DE but make it a little different and better?"-----"MORE FLASH!!!!"---"Sir, those are special effects, not solutions."

the burning barn could be easy in theory...they could do effects like The Orfanage: Ashes to Ashes...which i believe was my fave house of HHN XX

Bioshock was last year....Saws 'n' Steam was eerily reminiscent of the first Bioshock game

So we are for sure getting 8? Is it in the forums or the HHN site? If on here could you link the post please? (p.s. dr. jimmy, big fan of your "spoiler" vids on youtube...always entertaining.)

Pretty legitimate point but do you think they would want to even remotely risk safety of park goers by having them enter a live demolition site? Albeit there may not be anything structurally wrong with the SS. And I believe I heard demolition already started? Idk, guess I'll just have to try and peep it out when I go back to Uni later this month

possibly...again...i had VERY high hopes for this house based off of how good assimilation was...but im going back in a week or so on a non peak night so im going to be trying again...and them taking more time makes sense as i only had like 3 or 4 actors jump at me the whollleeee time. and like i said...makeup and everything in there was probably the best

not a problem!!! seemed like the scareactors in there really actually put forth effort...i saw GROWN BURLY MEN running out of there...myself included xD

Overall...this has got to be the best year I have been to..HHN 17 was good and HHN XX wasnt bad....but this year...WOW... The order I did the houses in will be the order these quick reviews will be done (and I am an AP so order is a little funky) The Forsaken This house was a great starter...some genuine scares and EXCELLENT EFFECTS!!!!! Although the glowing green eyes on every single scare actor got old pretty fast. good house though...(3.75 out of 5) The In-Between HANDS DOWN FAVORITE HOUSE EVER!!!!! I was scared and entertained at the appropriate times in the house...spinning room was amazing plus the rune board in the dorm...not one single complaint whatsoever....best.house.ever. (5 out of 5 easy) Winter's Night Lived up to my expectations...got a VERY cold house with some scares...didnt get me bad but was still a good one...very impressed with the atmosphere and weather effects.(3.5 out of 5) Nightengale's: Blood Prey OH.MY.GOD. one of the few houses to get a genuine scare out of me...not one complaint...enjoyed the trenches throughout...the banshee walking across the many corpses was very creepy...2 banshees scaring from both sides unexpectedly..thought it was the scariest until i got to a house later on.great and scary house! (4.25 out of 5) The Thing Sigh.... I may have been jaded or had my hopes up to high...but this in my opinion was the biggest let down of all the houses this year...was really hoping it would have been as good as Assimilation...but alas...barely scared me...snow and cold effects were much better in Winter's Night...greatest part of the house was the makeup effects on the infected scareactors...disappointed overall though almost feel like universal dropped the ball on this one...(2 out of 5) Nevermore: The Madness of PoeGreat house...amazed at the entrance with Poe's image on the burnt pages...the hanging pages throughout were great...and even got a little creeped out in the masque of the red death room...overall not a very scary house, felt more like it was for fans of poe, but still good. (3 out of 5) H.R. Bloodengutz Presents: Holidays of Horror You know....this one was kind of a sleeper for me...wasn't expecting much especially after what our friends who already went through told us about it...but was impressed...got several good scares out of me and i was genuinely grossed/creeped out in the thanksgiving room, plus the smells were amazing in there!!! (4 out of 5) Saws and Steam: Into the MachineHO-LEE-CRAP!!! Scarezone last year was great and I would only have hoped for this to be at least as good...wayyyyyyyyyyyyy better...scared the living hell out of me at some points...the fish tanks...oh the fish tanks...the heat effect was brilliant and the guy with the chainsaw after you leave the house made me actually run!!! house of the year vote in my eyes....(5 out of 5)

sounds good...do you guys typically meet up in a specific place?

only one way to find out...KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!

this movie better not suck...i actually jumped a little...i was expecting the ice to start cracking while he walked away or something...not the WHOOOM that actually happened

not so much a matter of my laze as it is a post i mustve accidentally missed.

How do I start doing things to earn the site awards...do I just have to have the pictures on my profile, or set as my avatar? or what?

now, does anybody know when an official park map should be up? or are they still doing the "beta" to figure out best placement?

I'm only 21 and I know H.R. Pufnstuf! Then again I wasn't raised by a bunch of whacked out shut ins. Also, while I have always dug the creature feature type flicks....I have to admit, I do NOT have high hopes for this house...Granted I haven't experienced any of the "comedy" houses (only been to carnival of carnage and hhn XX) unless you count zombiegeddon which I was totally into, but is this one and ones like it just meant to liven the mood and not take it too seriously, or is there some kind of element that I can't think of that will actually make this house scary?

AH, great, thanks. I would totally be down for that..But, I'm going opening night and not 100% sure if i am/am able to go any other times, though i will try for the photo walk. Is anyone else going opening night? Maybe possibly do a mini photo walk?

Thanks!!! My faith in this is valid!!! The house (hopefully) is going to be different from Assimilation!

Forgive my slight brain flatulence....but what are you meaning here by a HHN Photo-walk?

In all honesty, while I AM looking forward to this house...I really am trying not to get my hopes up. While assimilation was the first hhn house I have ever been to(and was genuinely scared by...especially with the dog jumping through the wall), I DO NOT want to go through the exact same house as before...That being said, I believe that may very well be the case here if they go to the sprung tent from 2007/last year for the Dogs of War house. I'm hoping that I just missed the memo that they are FOR SURE moving the thing over to a sound stage, can anyone confirm or deny that? [wanting to give the house a chance as this is my favorite non franchise horror movie ever!]
