What night(s) will be considered hell night(s) this year?
-
HoS Williamsburg needed those 3 new haunts. I went to the event in 2007 and again in 2012. Two of the haunts (Deadline and Bitten) were the same.
That's one thing I love about HHN, it's never the same. I'm happy to have AWiL back this year. It's my #1 house and I scrambled to do it twice on the final night in 2013. My girlfriend didn't go that year and she loves the film.
Since I didn't have the money to start attending until 2012, this year is all about catching up. Feel sorry for y'all who have seen all this before, but I finally get to experience Run, Body Collectors, Psychoscareapy, and meet the Caretaker and Director!
Speaking of those two, I went back and watched their promos for HHN 12 and 13. Man those were so well done. I remember seeing those ads as a teenager and freaking out. They still hold up today.

Full reveal on the 25th would make so much sense.

Run Like Hell...and play the Floyd song at the start of the maze.

The digital videos could have been so much cooler! Wish they'd taken an approach along the lines of those Director commercials from way back when...classic and creepy.
-
Nope. That's it. The one "original" house is a spin-off from Scary Tales. But it's an Anniversary year. It's what everyone should have expected.
Isn't it technically a spin off of a scarezone?
-
Oh man we have members named Nard Dog and Prison Mike now. Love it!
Does anyone know if there's going to be any legit original content this year? Seems like we are getting IPs and HHN throw backs.

If the mask is the old up, have each ghostface with two different masks: one for when the IP holders there, and the original for when they're away.
-
This seems to confirm something's up:
-
American Horror Story?
Or, perhaps we misunderstood this entire time. We're not getting a Scream house. We're getting another Screamhouse.
-
Anyone else notice the photos in the Jack's Manics section of the official website? Three pics are posted: house exterior, facade construction plans, and a room with people covered in sheets.
-
I feel bad for HHN-Hollywood based on that list.
Also in Mike's list he said they are listing properties for next year...so, another IP year next year. Jesus.
I kind of went at Mike a bit on his personal twitter - check all his recent replies - but he indirectly admitted that there's (unfortunately) more at play than just him, suggesting corporate is up his ass.
Read the post and thought it was a little much. I share your disappointment with IPs, but maybe going at the guy on Twitter isn't the right answer. Certainly thought you had good points...still, you should be taking it out on marketing, not Mike.
If anything, I think Mike is the only reason we get any original content. Without him, it'd be all IPs.

I just hope this year is FTWD. Last season of TWD was a total snooze fest. Perhaps that's why TWD didn't lead the house announcements; they're waiting for the show's premiere.
-
Guessing we're getting American Horror Story Freak Show. Either that or Jimmy's video is a reference to Carnival of Carnage.
-
Thank goodness for a London scare zone, if it's true. Way too much dead space in the park last year. From Kidzone to SF, it was completely empty.
-
Seconded on the Christmas light room. Certainly not frightening, but damn cool.
-
The name Bloody Mary was trademarked for use in haunted attractions. It is a standard trademark, meaning it does not require specific imagery just the use of the name. (Which I still find to be ridiculous, and shows a complete lack of creative integrity. No one should own the name of an urban legend/myth/folklore.)
Urban legends and myths are public domain, and should remain so. No one owns the rights to Krampus. Legendary will own the rights to their particular interpretation if Krampus.
Here is a list of other potential creatures that could be used in a Dark Christmas/Krampus house.

Gryla is wicked! Don't see Uni ever using Black Pete. Imagine that PR nightmare.

This could be a decent IP year if The Walking Dead is left out. Kraumpus, Crimson Peak, Hitchcock, American Horror Story, and Dr. Who all make for interesting properties. I know nothing of the latter, but looking through this list, http://www.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/doctorwho/characters/aliens/ , has me intrigued. Still holding out hope for Treehouse of Horror, The Shining, Hellraiser, or Twin Peaks one of these years.
What's the consensus on IP to original content ratio this year? Half and half? It'd be nice to have one year without IP's, but I fear those days are long gone.

What's up with the Jaws photo? Is there any possibility they'll do a JAWS house?
-
Here's an idea...
What if Universal decided to sell a Skeleton Key type of access pass? It'll give you access to an exclusive room at the beginning of the house which sets up the story. Each skeleton key room is an introduction to the house by one of the former mascots. At the end of the presentation, you are scared into the house where the line has been held to allow you to go through the maze mostly alone with the skeleton group.
-
Damn wish I had hit Dead End twice that year. I only got one run in and it was during a cast change. Don't recall seeing a single scare actor.
-
Anyone know if there was a connection between The Boogeyman at Singapore and the one we were suppose to get? Hope it eventually comes to fruition
-
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Twin Peaks would make an incredible IP house.

RUN: Blood, Sweat, and Fears
in Haunted Houses
Posted · Edited by Tich0las
Likely conga line, although a non IP in this house location usually has one of the lower waits of the evening.
This will be the final maze located in Disaster's queue.
