Judging by the years they are making visual reference to, there's the mythology aspect. Manifestations of fear. Unleashed evil. Truman: They're like something from a nightmare. Lin: No, they're something nightmares are from. Everything in our stable is from another world. Courtesy of, you know who. Truman: Monsters, magic, Gods.

If the theme of this year is what people are expecting it to be...Cabin in the Woods would be a good fit.

Those seem a bit on the nose. Then again, so does Vincent. Anyway, there's also Kevin Spacey. Spacey could mean Alien...or it could refer to Shrink=AHS.

So I thought of a possible Kevin. Certainly related to horror, plenty of song titles that could be hints for IPs or maze concepts. I don't know how big he is on the east coast, which could make him good fodder for a cryptic statement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brotha_Lynch_Hung

I think the "Shakespeare!" clue seems like more of a clue. I mean Shakespeare could just mean that it's a literary house (like the Lovecraft house I'd fly over to see) or that it has something to do with one of his plays. Which could be suicide/witches/revenge/poisoning etc.etc. he wrote about a lot of stuff. Maybe Shakespeare relates to "The Scottish Play"=Cursed production=Exorcist/Poltergeist/The Omen? Having a pretty direct reference to Cooper is a bit on the nose. Also, Skinner wasn't yelling. It was a pretty casual singing tone.

Skinner sings a version of "Schools Out" by Alice Cooper.

You jerk I wanted to see that video without him laughing.

Back to the Home Alone theory... Roberts Blossom played Marley in Home Alone, but also had a notable role in a 1974 horror movie called Deranged. He played a character very closely based on Ed Gein...so there's the movies he inspired (TCM, Psycho, Silence of the Lambs) and his own personal story which could inspire a lot of concepts.

I bet somebody behind him was tickling him.

Didn't stop Hollywood. But the concern that the myth isn't as popular in Florida could certainly hurt La Llorona's chances.

Anything from The Thing.

What makes you think that?

Also, Nazi zombies and a K:KK maze would get a lot of negative attention from the press.
