Just for the hell of it I decided to translate the little message on the bottom here:
THE HHN DESIGN TEAM SALUTES ALL THOSE WHO TOOK THE TIME AND INTEREST TO BE A PART OF THIS YEARS HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FROM ALL OF US

I’m going to do a bunch of threads where I post links into videos from respective years. Here is videos for 2008’s Reflections of Fear starring Bloody Mary.
I wonder what the little music box tune playing in the background is.
Main Gate video. Honestly it’s a little corny

Some of the podcasts in the link above have to do with the Halloween Horror Nights: Bloody Mary event in 2008.

2008’s Reflections of Fear was themed around its icon; Bloody Mary. The backstory by Mike Aiello was that she used to be this young doctor Mary AGANA who had horrible methods for “treating” her patients. Eventually she died and became a legend that says if you say her name a number of times in the mirror, she will kill you.
The backstory was all laid out in the website for 2008. I cannot access the website, but I have found a photo album for it. Below is the screenshots of the event by HHNYEARBOOK, going by order of patient.
Mary’s own little Journal entries:
Ya know I don’t get the whole Mary drawing thing. I get that she got insane, but why was she drawing these peculiar images, aside from the out-of-universe reason of reading the houses and zones.
Now from what I read from reading old forum posts, while this was going on; there were these emails delivered to HHN followers revolving a character with the rather unfortunate initials of B.S. later revealed to be Boris Shuster.
The final case for the journal:

Flash will end after this December, so I don’t think we’ll be able to access the fun stuff in the websites like the patient files, Bloody Mary journal entries, and Terra Cruentus map anymore. I think one of the Reaper Audio Mixes has the 2009 audio but other than that; is there anyway the website data can somehow be preserved for fans to access.
i think I remember reading somewhere that some guy named Nick (I think he used to own HorrorNights.be but it’s shut down) had a file containing the audio of the websites but I can’t find it anywhere so it could just be me misremembering. Maybe someone has YouTube videos of it?

Self-explanatory. That doesn’t mean you had to attend one of the Icon events, you can list what you like/dislikes based on the concept alone.
-
Yeah does anyone have any memories of what was revealed here? I’m especially interested in the Icons/Mary Agana sessions.

A former member of Universal’s creative team for HHN/Halloween Horror Nights, I found on his Vimeo page his parody of that 80s Batman movie where he starred as the title character. Posting it here for curiosity’s sake. Personally I couldn’t stand the first few minutes.

I don't see why they couldn't. But I could see why they wouldn't:
- She is only known by the most diehard fans. We haven't really seen her image pre-Bloody Mary. We heard her voice on the website. As far as the GP knows, she would just be a psychiatrist character who had "unconventional" therapy techniques - not that this wouldn't be a great standalone icon it itself. To me, Dr. Agana is akin to Dr. Rich Oddfellow - a part of the backstory of Jack but not a person we necessarily need to see at HHN.
- It would only invite Bobbie Weiner to chase a new settlement, baseless as it would be.
- The Icon house that year was a bomb - completely forgettable.
However should Legendary Truth one day become a major part of a future HHN, I could see the good Dr. being mentioned without bringing up Bloody Mary in name. I doubt we would get anything more than that.
I guess, but as I kinda mentioned above, aren’t the Icons beloved by only the diehard HHN fans?
And hell I take back what I said that I understand that Universal can’t use her because of copyright. I mean Universal specializes in IPS all the time now: The Walking Dead (5 times), American Horror Story, Halloween 1978, The Shining, Stranger Things, etc. Bloody Mary is technically an IP so I could see Universal working something out. Maybe it’s because of popularity with the GP; but I don’t think that’s the case since Universal managed to get IPs like Trick r’ Treat and Killer Klowns from Outer Space, which I don’t believe match well known characters like Freddy, Michael Myers, or even Dracula.Im just going to go with the baseless assumption that maybe Bobbie is a prick, IDK.

I don’t mean Bloody Mary. For those who don’t know, apparently (I’m not sure where this was sourced) the Bloody Mary name is trademarked by a woman named Bobbie Weiner who still owns the trademark (And has not forgotten about HHN). So universal can’t use Bloody Mary the ghost.
So why can’t they use the character Mary Agana? I think I remember people saying that she’s “not well known to the public” but you could say the same thing about the Caretaker, the Usher, the Storyteller, the Director, and even Jack the Clown. Is it a problem with the design? Cause honestly I think they should redesign her or at least the outfit as it wasn’t really interesting (she’s basically Sadako/Samara but with white eyes).
what do you some of you think?

It'd have potential, but who would be the main protagonist of the movie?
Maybe it could be an anthology movie? In that they would have different protagonists depending on each story.

I haven’t bought anything but these people made some pretty cool merchandise based on Past HHN Content. Plus they’re the only place currently selling Bloody Mary merch.

Dude where did you get this stuff!?
I linked it above (well the first page anyway), it was from the defunct HorrorNights.be site.

Those who have completed all clues in Terra Cruentus were invited by Universal Creative to attend a special night held in the Navigator’s Club above Confisco’s. In there were conceptual designs, and props.

At Halloween Horror Nights: The Season of the Queen; it took place in a land of middle-earthian and modern mythos called Terra Cruentus. The backstory for the event was that each night the Terra Queen would host the “Season of the Queen”, where those who survived what lay beyond Maldaken were sacrificed to the Gorewood Tree to produce Bloodberry Wine for its citizens.
During this event , Universal Creative held the first ever ARG (Alternative Reality Game) for this year. Guests were to find the answer to clues regarding the world of Terra Cruentus, attend the night (of 6) which the clue indicated to, and find a “Dark Lord” which would give them prizes. I never attended a Horror Nights before so I am bit confused as to how the clues were supposed to be solved. Judging by the pics, the clues seem to come from the “Terra Throne” part of the 2005 website if I recall.

Just for fun, I decided to recap the ARGS that happened at 2005 and 2008 at Halloween Horror Nights; maybe later years if I care about it. When I am ready I will start with the first ARG, in the realm of Terra Cruentus. Stay tuned.
