    HHN 22 Website Updates

    in Halloween Horror Nights 22

    Posted

    Dissapointment aside; I have to believe that the "Powers That Be" are not idiots. For whatever reason, be it transition, financial, creative or otherwise; Universal knows what they have and what direction that they want to take.

    This year just seems to be a year of change, that's all. Construction, Management, A dozen different priorities to consider... This, Corporate-Wide, not just HHN, including the Website.

    As fans, we "appear" to be sucking it up this year. However, as dissapointed as I am regarding the lack of interaction; I'm willing to give them a waiver, if just to see what they plan for the Event and it's promotion going forward.

    And to quote a reliable source... "We could still get games"

    Just a thought, this permit could be filed to cover the extensive renovations that were needed for 44. Demolition could even just consist of them removing the foundation and replacing it... which from these pictures looks very feasible. If they were going to take down the entire building i doubt they would start by removing the ground inside the building without tearing down the walls first.

    The four parts listed on the permit.

    Demolition-- Demolish the existing foundation

    New Foundations-- Rebuild the new foundation

    BuildingShell-- Repair, renovate the exterior walls

    Interior Buildout-- Repair renovate the interior.

    We knew that 44 was in a bad state of existance and would need work to be inhabitable .. IE they couldn't just throw a haunted house inside.

    Nothing is fact, until it's a fact. However, all lines have to be severed before demolition. The may simply be digging to cut-off gas, electrical, telephone... etc....

    It's the description from the 2004 site. Why it's appearing in Google results is beyond me, but the same thing happened in 2010:

    That was a really good job of spec, assess and address... thank you...

    Ah ok so that makes sense then. Its defaulting to what DOMZ has because of a SQL error and DMOZ hasn't updated since 2004. Case closed :)

    
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 145 Table '.\seotools8\user' is marked as crashed and should be repairedYou have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'order by a.url, a.keywords, a.domain' at line 4

    And this... Really good teamwork...

    So many intriguing ideas.... However, did anybody consider running an anagram check on "It's never too soon to start panicking"? I did!

    I agree with Jeramy on this.

    Coming from up North, Seasonal Haunted Hayrides are everywhere. We come to Uni for the granduer of what we can't find anywhere else; the "movie quality" of the presentation. I know that our scenario isn't everybody elses, but I do like holding HHN to a standard that can't be found just antwhere.

    Also as mentioned, the business side of such a decision doesn't make sense. The increased overhead in materials, maintenance, upkeep and additional hiring... with no balance on the left side of the ledger?

    Nothing wrong with brain-storming an idea... Just in this case, at least for my part, can't see it.

    Now... A House about a hayride? Jeepers Creepers "styled"? A ride gone wrong? (King_K) Potential !

    First time posting... was reading and agreeing with the lantern having what appeared to be roots... Reminded me of an old Irish Halloween Story that is the basis for the Jac-O-Lantern...

    In Ireland, where Halloween began in my opinion, the first jack-o'-lanterns weren't made of pumpkins. They were made out of rutabagas, potatoes, turnips, or even beets. There is an old 18th century Irish 'legend' about a man named Stingy Jack who was too mean to get into heaven and had played too many tricks on the devil to go to hell. When he died, he had to walk the earth, carrying a lantern made out of a turnip with a burning coal inside. Stingy Jack became known as 'Jack of the Lantern', or 'Jack-o'-lantern.' From this legend came the Irish tradition of placing jack-o'-lanterns made of turnips and other vegetables in windows or by doors on Halloween.
