    gracias! Never heard of TPU.... Bride, Beetlejuice and Leatherface are exciting... Pumpkin Lord and Icons house sound cool too... the rest... we'll see. Im still scratching my head about Billie Eilish, I dont get that one.

    She’s a music artist under UMG (Universal Music Group) and has...enough horror thematics to work. Going to be an interesting experiment on all sides either way it seems.

    TCM? Where did this come from? Did I miss something?

     


    On IU, it’s now believed that the TPU list is at least mostly accurate, not fully. There seems to be some confusion as to what the Secret IP on the Nightmares map right now is, with TPU stating it may actually be a TCM house instead of whatever “grander” IP that the map is projecting.

    SS23 is getting two houses? Could that possibly mean 12 houses?

    • Soundstage 22 (entrance next to Despicable Me)
    • Soundstage 23B (entrance in front of plaza)
    • Soundstage 23A (entrance next to Fallon, where Ghost Town entrance was in 2016)
    • Soundstage 24B 
    • Soundstage 24A
    • Soundstage 25 
    • MIB Tent
    • Sprung Tent 2
    • Sprung Tent 1
    • New Parade Building
    • Parade Building
    • Shrek

    Actually it seems like 22 may not be getting used, based on statement from @Legacy over on IU.

    Can someone give me the run down of the HHN and Billie Eilish connection? Im old (a whopping 42) and confused about bringing in a flavor of the month pop princess to the event.....

    A good chunk of her stuff is horror-inspired or laced with horror themes in terms of some of her music videos. Her album was apparently based on night terrors and such.

     

    and she’s already under Universal Music Group so...

    Now, I'll buy it just for the sake of being a souvenir, but I wonder if I brought last year's cup if I could just pay the refill fee.  I imagine that would be the case.

     

    I'm sure others here have tried bringing freestyle cups from prior years, with success?

     

    It has been stated that apparently the IP on the cup may get swapped out bi-weekly I believe.

    Anyone know why they have glowing lights on the chainsaws this year? I heard from some tonight that it had to do with legal issues involving someone getting angry over how the chainsaws looked "too real".

     

    I mean...neon theming in the 80’s based year. It could be true, but if you asked, that’d probably be the answer you get.

    Awesome!! I noticed you didn't talk about the streets; no spoilers for any particularly cool or surprising effects please, but do you have thoughts on them? Expectations vs reality?

     

    I’m not the same guy as MiB above, but I will say I’m pretty sure streets were not complete last night though actors were out.

    I know that at this point the event is literally tomorrow night and I’m going to be experiencing it myself then, but just curious: what are your thoughts on the Ghostbusters ghosts? My roommate got cast as a stilt performer in GB but I’m back in Georgia for school so I wasn’t at the preview and I haven’t asked him much about it yet. From the vague explanation he gave before his rehearsal and the emojis he put on a post about his set list, he has a prominent hat. I can’t find anything about a hat ghost but I’ve heard that the house ties together more content than from just the first Ghostbusters? Is that true?

     

    I believe he may have been a ghost from the 2016 film based on that description? 

     

    And to answer the question actually, the house so has been said is the first film with elements of the other two.

    Once again, I am REALLY late to this party (Though I kept up with the official announcements)!
    Before the 'Tooth Fairy' House got turned into 'Us,' does anyone know what its storyline was originally going to be?
    When I hear the term "Tooth Fairy" used in a horror context, I immediately think of the horror film 'Darkness Falls' (Which, btw, I found REALLY underrated).

    It appears that “Tooth Fairy” was actually called Bedtime Stories, and it was a twist on, well, children’s bedtime stories.

    Any leaks or ideas on what scarezones Orlando is getting?

     

    1. Selfie Zone

     

    Thats an easy one.  But after that, what's the deal?

    Music of Rob Zombie....what scare actors would be in this zone?

    At this point:

    ”Anarcade” - POTS 

    Plastic Surgery - Hollywood

    Vikings - CP

    Zombieland - NYC

    Rob Zombie - San Fran

  11. Us had the best opening weekend of a non franchise horror movie in history. And one of the top 3 in horror history. Top 2 for live action “original” films only behind Avatar. Critical and commercial success.

     

    They’re hitting an iron while it will still be hot, the Us and Jordan Peele train. 

     

    It’s not that hard to get. They are gonna get some bank off of this.

    Am I the only one that wouldn't be too excited about the Terra Queen? Seems they used her as a throw away icon or something. Half the time I forget about her all together.

     

    Well that’s Marketing’s fault. If I’m correct, they didn’t feel the Terra Queen was widely translatable as a concept so they attached the Storyteller whom was easier to hype up the event around.

    Last year's crapfest about did me in.  Maybe others are also not looking forward to 10 houses of plain black hallways.

     

    In my opinion, in order to add 2 houses, they need a pretty significant budget increase even if you consider the loss of the tram.

    Are we going to see the budget blown on one or two houses again and 8 state fair quality houses?  My Magic 8 ball says: MOST LIKELY.

    I'm in no rush to attend this year; will wait to read the reviews online.  Meanwhile, I'm going to the good HHN the last week of Sept.

     

    Welcome to the board!  Please don't let my negative opinions of HHN Hollywood dissuade you from having a good time.  I'm a jaded old man.

     

    I also feel like other boards have just become more...attractive in terms to HHN discussion. Why that is, I wouldn’t know but I feel like Inside Universal has kinda stepped into the “Big HHN Forum” slot even with not being fully HHN focused.

    Well Hollywood tweeted, I think after probably figuring out about the KKFOS tweet that Ben Conway to put out: 

     

     

    I feel like they are wasting time a bit and just gonna reveal everything in one go at this point, I mean yeah we still gotta couple of months and maybe stuff is being rushed a bit to be put together but it looks like they won't make any announcement any time soon, the only best bet is at Midsummer's Scream event, so far it's just been a bit quiet this year and strangely slow from how last year was. 

     

    I wouldn’t hedge your bets on that. They still gotta do IP announcements seperate because right. 

     

    Up until June 7th, any announcement would still put us on a faster pace than last year.
