Tobias Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Over on OU they're claiming the Geisha scare zone was shelved due to "budget reasons". If that's the case, then that's a bit of a bummer...however if it means giving the Purge scare zone more space to work with, then that won't sting as much.

ThNdIzNiR Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I don't know... you think the auction will be taking place in the alley? I haven't seen the new Purge yet, so I'm not sure how it was set up in it. However, when I think elegance, the word alley is not really associated with it.

kelise Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Could someone refresh my memory on the speculated streets besides Face Off, Purge, and (maybe) Geisha? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foREVer56 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Could someone refresh my memory on the speculated streets besides Face Off, Purge, and (maybe) Geisha? If it's still in play, a voodoo/witch type zone in CP. That, FaceOff, Purge and the scrapped Geishas are the only zones mentioned so far, that I've seen at least. I would guess a clown type one in front of Disaster, and then at least one more somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDW Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 You forgot the Mask a Raid or whatever it will be called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockinSight Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I know that they are not having Diagon Alley open during HHN but is the London waterfront still in play? If so then that's where I'm placing my money on where a Mask-a-Raid will be. If not, then it would probably be in either shrek alley or plaza of the stars.

The last I heard, it was going to be in Plaza of the Stars. I think the London Waterfront is off limits for anything HHN related. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 It's not universal. It's WB and JK. No, it's Universal. The Potters can be closed off from the rest of the park at night for private events that the corporations pay beaucoup money to rent. Even with IoA, the official response regarding using Potter for HHN was, "We haven't asked." Universal, absolutely, made the decision to keep Potter closed. It's a sound business decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the business made a very smart decision to keep the expansion that cost hundreds of millions seperate from the event that locals get a heavy discount to go to, right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mystiquephreeq Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 My thoughts: If we lost Geishas, it's due to budget and space. Both caused by the inclusion of the motorcycles. The bikes don't just need room to move, but they also need gas. Gasoline is expensive. While I would love an original zone, I am thrilled the bikes are back. I'm interested to see how they will work with the crowds, but I loved them when I saw them in 06 and 07. I'm willing to give up an original zone, if it means A&D can try this idea again. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomemadeHaunt Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 OR... Maybe its was never really Gieshas. Maybe it was always "Elegant ladies" and the information was wrong. Wouldn't be the first time. After all a while back I heard they weren't exactly what we thought they were and the area would still be populated with women. OR... Maybe it is Gieshas and they are the elegant ladies. Geishas are considered Elegant in form and dress. Maybe they are the women selling the unwitting victims. Like some kind of post-apocalyptic warrior Giesha. Although when I hear "Elegant ladies" my mind moves to the cheap (read as disappointing) thing which would be Lady Luck 2.0 Oh good lord. Lady Luck 2.0. I wouldn't be able to handle that. Such poor execution with that in 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I made that guess before I realized the Elegant ladies were cannon to the second Purge movie. So I guess it would loo like whatever it looked liked in the movie.

MattJohnson Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 The LED board is coming back. When the event opens, the Purge Announcement and sirens will broadcast. "Purge feed" will play throughout the night. You're welcome. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I think, if we had to have two Vampire houses with one based on a TV show, I would have rather had The Strain. Seriously, I could write up an entire house strictly on the first episode. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I could write up an entire house strictly on the first episode. I agree 100% This show has so many elements that could be used in a house. Imagine walking down the aisle of the airplane, dark with lights flickering. Seats full of bodies, not knowing which one was about to lunge at you. The morgue scene as well. Lots of potential in that show for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
