Blumhouse does have the creepy opening for its horror movies with the ghost looking girl. But she looks a little too generic I think to really stand out.

Yeah but at least this is more fun than collectively being annoyed at marketing. This thread doesn't specify what kind of speculation has to be discussed. Also, Disney poutine is lovely. 10/10 strongly recommend.

Nah because I've definitely seen everything else on that list at HHN. Poutine is the only thing on there I haven't seen. Listen guys, let's make a pact that the first person who finds poutine at the event this year needs to post its location in the group. Deal? I am not above asking a monster mid-attack where my gravy fries of goodness are. "GIVE ME YOUR SOUL" "Only if you buy me poutine first"

Boom this list It's the first thing listed.

DUDE RIGHT. Last November I saw some list post about the best HHN food and poutine was on there. I was there enough last year that I thought I would've seen it, but I also have a very loyal relationship with twisted tators so maybe I walked right past it and didn't notice. Anyone else heard of the mysterious HHN poutine?

Bless you, this is literally what I have been saying since the beginning. We can all agree that we love HHN, that's why we're all here. But at the end of the day, this is a theme park event that is going to make money no matter what. Yes, I'm sure they do care about the diehard HHN fans, but they also know that we're going to attend and give them money (almost) no matter what. We're not their concern. Do I think what they're doing this year as far as marketing is good? Hell no, I hate it and it's annoying. Am I still going to spend hundreds of dollars to make my annual pilgrimage and go? Hell yeah. And I'm sure the same goes for everyone else here. You have every right to be upset with marketing and complain about it, but let's remember this is a speculation thread. If you hate the event and what they do with it so much, don't go. Save your money or put it towards a new adventure. I'm done now, I promise. So...did anyone else know they had poutine last year at HHN because real talk I'm high key bitter I didn't see it at all last year during any of my visits.

Does anyone know where I could watch Trick R Treat? Is it on Netflix or something? I've actually never seen it and I feel like I need to watch it before I go this year, and just in general as a horror fan. And speaking of hordes, I would LOVE to see a scarecrow horde near the dust bowl house. The scarecrows last year were really fun.

Have you seen what they do at HHN over in Japan? They change the ride videos so that they fit the horror theme. For example, I remember seeing a video of their Back to the Future ride in Japan and at the end, you get transported to a house in Japan and the grudge ghosts come out. It's really cool and I soooo wish our HHN would do that.

I believe millennial describes anyone born between 1984-1995

As second resident millennial, agreed. I did notice a majority of the fans were around my age, so it might just be a generational thing. Maybe AoV is Universal's way of bringing in more college kids. I know last year I forced a bunch of my friends to come with me one night and they really enjoyed AoV and it was one of the things that made them want to come back. I mean, one of the girls I brought was not digging the event until she watched AoV and then she wanted to stay longer and enjoy the event. For the HHN veterans, the show might seem totally out of place, but it does bring in a crowd.

I really enjoyed it too. I grew up dancing so I'm mildly biased, but I know every night I was there it drew a huge crowd so it's not like people didn't enjoy it. I thought the placement was a bit off (walking through Banshee with Fall Out Boy playing in the background was odd), but it was still a great show. And I will fight anyone that thought the dream sequence part was anything less than amazing. Even if you weren't a fan of the show as a whole, you have to admit that part was awesome.

Noooooo. My friends already know I sold my soul to this event years ago, don't make me spam their social media accounts so I can get fun stuff.

I LOVED AoV, but could you imagine the amount of pumpkins they could put in with the budget they used for that show! ALL the pumpkins!!

Oddly enough, I gotta agree with Critical again when it comes to The Shining. I would honestly bet money that the blood elevator scene is going to be done FvJ style with a screen. Plus the hotel is so massive I can't imagine that they would do it justice. But then again, people were unsure about the Exorcist house last year and that was done pretty well.

I would much rather have an original than the Conjuring. It was a good movie, but the only thing I can think of when I imagine a Conjuring house is people clapping at me while I walk through a dark hallway.

The green glow next to the skull is a very Avada Kedavra green. My only other guess would be something from the voodoo house.

That looks like something from Knockturn Alley. Your friend might just be screwing with you.

Does anyone know if there have been any announcements about Not So Scary yet? I bet once those come out, Universal Marketing will start making a bigger deal about HHN.

I keep hearing stuff about people that went the Sunday after the hurricane and couldn't even do anything it was so crowded. I went that night and was able to do all the houses once without express and see Academy of Villains. I've never bought express out of the three years I've gone and I've never had a problem. You just have to go in with a plan.

Before I go to HHN I like to watch any of the IPs featured and watch youtube videos from past events. I also have a cheesy Halloween playlist on Pandora (Monster Mash, This Is Halloween, Ghostbusters, etc.) that I listen to while I get dressed and put on my war paint for the night.

Ok but in those college kid's defense, most of them are in the College Program and trust me, they need to get drunk at Epcot on their days off to survive being an intern there.

I remember seeing a good amount of drunk people last year, specifically in Chance's scarezone They all wanted to heckle her, probably because they assumed she wouldn't be allowed to heckle back. One of Chance's friends handled the heckles like a champ, usually with a "Enjoy your hangover, honey!". One night, my friend and I also saw a young couple drunk off their minds go into Lunatics Playground and actually had to be escorted out because the house was tripping them out so badly. Honestly, I don't understand how people can afford to get drunk at HHN. That shit gets expensive after drink number 2.

I might be late with this, but I was listening to a Scarezone podcast the other day on my drive and I remember them saying there was a really big hint on the tickets page. I can't see anything on the surface though. Anyone look at the coding on that page yet? That's my birthday!!! Best present ever! Even though that's hella late what the hell Universal.

I absolutely agree. Honestly, with how big HHN has gotten, the event needs it's own marketing team. USO's marketing team doesn't seem to care about HHN very much. They should at least give the twitter back to Aiello.
