Yeah, I have heard the tales of the line nazis and that is why I was asking. I don't want to get in trouble, but dammit I want what I am paying for too
Most aren't quite as bad as some people say. I typically just let the curtain fall between each room if we've caught up to the person in front of us. That usually gives enough time to mostly reset, but not so much that I get a talking to.

How much room do you have to actually "self-pulse" the lines or is there a trick that you use to help increase your chances of getting the most scares?
You can usually walk a little slower and let the group in front of you get a bit ahead of you. That helps a lot.
You have to be careful with this though. If you try to hang back too much you'll get the hairy eyeball (and possibly yelled at) by the team members in the house.

I'd also look forward to some sort of vehicle element in NY as well.
Good call. It's just asking for a vamp biker gang.

Do we know if any zones are going to have mini shows this year? Sorry if it's already been posted, I just can't remember if it's been confirmed either way.
I have to imagine that Vamp will have a NYE "ball drop" at least at midnight, if not throughout the night. Chucky will probably also have a stage to interact with him at, similar to the Chance zone in 26.

I would really like to know how in the hell Unfriended can be converted to a house when the entire movie takes place on a computer/Skype.
It's going to be the only house where they tell you that you have to take out your phone and stare at it the whole time. Everything else will just be black hallways.

I’m really interested in seeing how Seeds of Extinction turns out because that just doesn’t seem like that scary of a concept.
It might be a lot harder seeing the scares coming. If they have a bunch of scareactors dressed as plants, and there's also a ton of plants decorating the areas...

What I'm wondering is what the slogan is this year. 26 you have You Won't Stand A Chance, and last year you had Your Soul Is Requested. What's this years gonna be?
Isn't it "The Past Will Haunt You"?

Realistically, now that Marketing shit the bed again.. think we'll get an announcement this week? I mean, the poster with two of the unannounced houses are already out there.. so.. why wait?
Also, not to be nitpicky, but any spec on how they will print the HHN28 logo? For example, the 25 had Jack's theater lights (like dressing room lights) in the 25. For 26, the 26 had markings that looked like the makeup on Chance's eyes, etc.. Or will it just be a generic blood color 28? I am always interested in this kind of minutiae.
Looks like Hollywood is getting a bit of an info dump today (and their tickets went on sale). I'm guessing it's a safe bet we'll get at least one announcement this week (Poltergeist?).
As for the logo, I foresee that they'll do some sort of retro feel to it. Not sure if they'll go full analogue '80s, and do the "28" similar to the read outs in the Delorian, but it's possible.

Here I am hoping it’s wrestling based
I'd be down for a house where every scene ends with Frankenstein's monster giving someone a Stone Cold Stunner.

Tents are fine, and Sprung 2 in particular has a history of hosting some pretty impressive houses. The original Halloween, Insidious, Chainsaw, even Hive was pretty decent for the slap-dash replacement that it was.

I am going to miss having the ability to just stop by in the middle of an AoV performance, and then get out right away. Now it's going to be an actual commitment to seeing the show.

Great digging Gambit! This is the kind of stuff that should be on these boards, instead of the wondering about announcements we were stuck with last year

I'm glad I picked up the Arrow blu ray of Killer Klowns last time I was at Movie Trading Co. Now i just need to get the chucky movies
Keep an eye on Amazon for the 7-film collection. I was able to pick it up earlier this year for an amazing $22! Really nice collection in a cool-ass box.

Wasn't the dumb little bastard mixed in a scarezone in the last couple of years (sorry, SZs blend in my head sometimes as to the year).
All Night Die-In: Double Feature at 25.

Weren’t we supposed to get Ouija last year, only for Hasbro to step in very late in the day and say no? They own the rights to the board game Ouija, and I think that’s why the announcement for HoB was so late and rushed. It’s a shame because although the films aren’t great, I think it could’ve worked well in HoB. Better than the purge at least!
I’m still hopeful for a Conjuring universe house, but with all the legal issues surrounding those properties I doubt it would ever come.
Warner is starting their own Halloween event in their Hollywood backlot. I think any of their horror properties (including Conjuring and IT) are going to be very difficult to get for, at least, the next few years.

Anyone else notice the Jack easter egg in the Amazon Cannibal poster?

It's not a video store. And there doesn't appear to be an icon at all this year. I've been told "No icon," none of the houses indicate "icon," and the site doesn't hint at "icon."
They got out of the icon game last year. They're doing "overall event themes" now. At least until HHN30

Okay, I'm bored now. When are we getting another announcement?
WHEN, DAMMIT ?!?
If you don't like waiting this long, you're really going to hate July.

A house based on the new Halloween film is not happening
Wording is very important. Just because the new Halloween isn't being featured, doesn't meant that Michael Meyers won't return.

I totally see why new people would come for the IP, and maybe even still want a lot of IP a few years later. But I have to believe those originals must totally take them by surprise and grow on them. I think there are only a few people around here who would prefer IP over originals.
This was my wife and I exactly.
It was the IPs that drew us in initially, but once we saw that the originals actually had a ton of thought and creativity behind them, we were absolutely hooked. Now I'm a total slave for the event, and it probably eats up way too much of my attention throughout the year.
That being said, I think it's very important to get at least a few big IP draws every year. We as fans need to keep getting new blood in. The bigger the general public draws get; the more focus gets put on the event; the bigger the budgets become; the better the event gets.

Fireball = Stranger Things (NO clue)
Adding this in, just because it may help with further speculation to know how A&D thinks.
Fireball is because that’s what Will’s D&D character uses to beat the Demogorgon

Halloween Horror Nights 28 Speculation
in Halloween Horror Nights 28
Posted
It's also tangentially connected to Trick R Treat since they both have similar themes, and most people will walk through Traditions to get to that house.
