If I remember correctly frightanic was a dual run house. Would we be getting something similar?
Indeed, it was a dual run.

A dual run house is a house with one overarching theme that actually has two houses that fit that theme. Frightanic was labeled as 1 house by Universal, but was two houses (Fear in First Class and Carnage Crew).
Legacy has has given us two house clues. I’ve supplied hints.
I’ll add his hint from IU. It applies to both R&M clues.

Now I'm stumped. Time-stopping and a generic sentence about going somewhere with Rick.
Also, is it possible to know whether the hint in your reply pertains to a house or house count? I'm assuming the latter but my overanalytical brain is taking everything as a clue now.
My hint was both, actually.
I’ll repeat:
Frightanic was a great house, or should we call it houses?

Well the house number thing is pretty simple. I'm betting on 12 with 13 for 2020.
As for R&M, that cold open is about Rick and Morty trying to disable a nuke and then literally destroying the world I believe? I don't believe Fallout would ever happen, but there's tons of Post Apocalyptic stuff to choose from.
And as for the time-stop one, I have my money on Frightanic due to that being a Titanic-themed episode. Unless the time-stop is the hint. If that's the case IDFK.
Don't try to connect the R&M clues to the theme or story in an episode. It is, usually, the line that is important.
Also, there’s a hint from me in the reply you quoted.

@mystiquephreeq Both!!! I edited it so say what I kind of think?
Both R&M clues are Legacy’s. I just yoinked the second from IU where he posted it.

Last year’s house number was easy to tick off using your hands. This year, you won’t be able to do that.

I am so utterly confused with that "clue"
Mine or Legacy’s?

besides talking about over ip. can we talk about our hopeful street that we get or street venue?
Streets are a twee bit harder to suss out at this time. I think locations may stay the same.

The clue giver gets to choose the method of the clues.
My convoluted method will have to be reworked. I tend to find connections to everything between everything and can easily spin off into a tangent.
In case anyone hasn’t perused other forums and rumors that are already out there.
My first clue if the rumor holds: You won’t be able to use your hands to count the number of houses.
EDIT: I haven’t read this whole thread so ignore clue if already discussed here.

Sure, they are using these test to use wear? volcano bay... look at where that did.
The interactive wands weren’t introduced until Diagon Alley opened in 2014. HU and LT 2013 were beta tests for the RFID technology as well as research into the psychology of immersive experiences.
New tech at HHN has been, and always will be, beta testing for implementation on a wider scale.
We are their beta testers and we pay for the privilege.
If we see new tech this year, always consider its greater implementation. The 4th gate is coming as well as other changes to the park. New tech testing is always a possibility.

I doubt the respiratory made it's money back, just like how those blinky skulls didn't sell very well.
I would like to be on the record that I don't want them to fail. Yet, I love when they try new things.The Repository has made or will make it’s money back.
Watching certain technological implementations in the parks, one can see how things at HHN are used to test technology. The RFID in Horror Unearthed and 2013 LT was a test for RFID applications in other features of the park.
The VR in The Repository will probably come into play when the 4th gate opens.
A true escape room experience is not feasible inside a park, but The Repository could test for popularity for such an attraction inside of City Walk.
Even last year’s blinky skulls were most likely no more than a test run of technology to be used at a later date.

"How about suggestion of some sort of IP that we could get for HHN29?"
Its almost mid January. Are we not way past the selection stage of the game?Considering the rights issues of the past few years, we should never be past that stage of the game.
Yes, I’ve resurfaced. I’m still not feeling holidays (check out the random thoughts thread for the why). It will probably be hit and miss from me this year. (Hit and miss autocorrected to hot and mess. FML).
I’ll try to spec and clue give if info rolls my way.
Onward my speculative friends

Thanks, sweet pea. Would LOVE for you to play the Ringmaster. Maybe you can hook up with Zombieman and play?
Not sure when I'll be back in Orlando, unfortunately.

I did The Dig back in July with my 12 yr old daughter and 6 yr old son. It was my first escape room ever, and I loved it. I didn't escape, but I will be aiming for The Ringmaster as my next room.
The rooms are beautiful and highly detailed.

Since they added the Wednesday before this year's Microsoft event, maybe Microsoft can take the damn Wednesday next year instead, and give those of us who travel for the long weekend a shot at a Thurs - Sat uninterrupted run. This year, I had to take the following Monday off of work, so I could attend Sunday since Thursday was off the table. Annoying when one only has so many vacation days in a year. Although.. at the beginning of the year, my vacation days are assigned for HHN first.
If I'm able to go this year, it's a big if still everyone, the 28th or 29 will likely be my dates.

Ah! And the final shoe has dropped(or been sucked under the house). I like to revisit these posts to see who was on to my clues, but this one kind of faded away into the background. Members were all over Poltergeist, Halloween etc. This was also one of the links to 2009 that I was talking about!
Yeppers!! And it was 08 not 09
Side note:
I'm currently attempting to fix Uni's poem. They totally screwed up the meter and cadence of the last two lines.
My FTFY to Uni:
A wicked witch rules this land
Each legend cursed by her hand
Every tale twisted with fear
There're no happy endings here

Incoming Hollywood announcement...
Could be Blumhouse. Could be an exclusive. Saw the tweet. Now we wait.

With the "completion" of Twisted Traditions construction, I've realized something.
A&D have connected a house and zone. Sinema will contain a movie called Pumpkin Guts that was filmed with the cooperation of the Carey, Ohio police per the poster.
Given Twisted Traditions theme and the fact it takes place in Carey, one has to wonder if Pumpkin Guts is based on Twisted Traditions.

We don't seem to have an RIP thread so...
On 7/30/18, my grandmother passed away. She was my introduction to horror movies and all things spooky. She instilled in me my love of Halloween. From watching the old black and white classics (Them! was my first horror movie at about 5)and watching Dr. Paul Bearer's Creature Feature, to being with me going through my first haunted house (Pinellas Square Mall), to her annual Halloween bash, she fostered and created my love for horror and Halloween.
I miss her deeply. This Halloween will be hard as the annual tradition will be broken.
Rest In Peace, Grandma. I love you.

I never shared mine. I've been using this name since 1998. It comes from the stories I write that will probably never get published. As the cocreator of a fictional world, I am the epitome of a Mystique (world's name) Phreeq (fan/freak).

The more I look at the spec map, the more I hope for an F&F extended queue house. Completely unrealistic since I've been in the queue, but the map is so lopsided.

Funny enough, the tent SS is in.
Not that I'm going on them, but I'm assuming that six houses get featured on the UTH tour as usual? Wondering which ones aren't--gonna guess DE2 won't.
Tent 1 (Scarecrows last year. The Hallow in 08) will hold DE2
Tent 2 (original home for DE) will hold SSin. We can't abbreviate it to SS. SS is soundstage or Silver Screams. I swear names are being created to thwart our abbreviations!
Both Tent 1 & 2 had their previous light issues addressed and fixed by 08. One could say, it was fixed a tad too much in 08. If you went into the two tent during daylight hours, you were practically blind. I got "trapped" in a tree inside The Hallow because I lost track of the glowing tshirt words in front of me.
DE2 being a part of the UTH will rely on the amount of detail in the house. All detail work for DE was done in black light paint. T.j. confirmed in the 08 CRO conference call that the house was physically painted in black light. They painted the sets with the black light on.
4 hours ago, marc said:Assuming Blumhouse, Sinema, and Dead Exposure will be the UOAP early entry houses this year? Those were the three locations they used last year.
With 10 houses and 5 potential queues in that area, it's really hard to say how many and which houses will be AP early entry.

Is the play Wicked important to this?
The novel is an excellent source of material to see how Baum's original creation contains horror elements and how it can be easily translated into horror.
When it comes to IPs that are now public domain, other sources and works based on them are always great ways of finding how the original can be altered to fit the horror genre.
Will it completely connect? No, but originals are always inspired by outside sources. I'd suggest giving Emerald City a watch as well. We could possibly see imagery from there in Oz portions of the house.

OH ELPHABA????
(e)L F(a) B(a)
That's how Maguire came up with her name. Excellent books, by the way. I highly suggest them.
The other random trivia I already shared is that the L stands for Lyman. My husband shares his first name with Baum.

The Wicked Witch is the ruler and unifying character, rewriting all sorts of stories instead of it just being purely an Oz house.

Halloween Horror Nights 29 Speculation
in Halloween Horror Nights 29
Posted
Last room of Silver Screams. The Winchester with Shaun on the pool table and Zombie Ed as the last scare.
I miss dancing through that room and getting Zombie Ed to Thriller.
