IheartNARWHALS Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I hope we don't end up like old Hollywood HHN or Howl O Scream. I honestly don't mind sequel houses. As long as they are good ones More Bloodengutz please! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomemadeHaunt Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 There is nothing wrong with repeating house themes. Everyone who is freaking out about TWD returning is neglecting to think about all the other house themes that have been repeated multiple times. I wonder if they will repeat another original house theme any time soon. What are your thoughts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Tales is a possibility. I would love to go through that and a Psychoscarapy house.

HomemadeHaunt Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Man, the Scary Tales and Pyschoscarapy houses were awesome. As for Nightingales, I definitely think that it will be returning in the near future. Who knows, maybe next year. There is so much that they could do with Nightingales. I've always wanted a WWII themed Nightingales house. It would work nicely since the 2011 house was based off of WWI. Then again, there is also the possibility of the revolutionary war, civil war, countless other wars, and even non-war events. The possibilities are endless. I do remember a year or two ago at the Entertainment and Design Forum, the A&D guys talked about possibly doing a sequel Nightingales house sometime in the future. Another great series to continue would be the Urban Legends series. La Llorona was a cool house and the whole idea of urban legends is fascinating. I'm interested to see if the scrapped Chupacabra house will actually show up somewhere down the line. I had an idea for an Urban Legends house where Bloody Mary would be the main character and she would be conjuring up a ton of other urban legends and maybe each character gets their own scene. Anything historical/supernatural in nature is right up my alley! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IheartNARWHALS Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Eh. They might just have an Icon house to appease the hardcore fans. That the best I can see happening with the Icons moving forward. I think the Icon era of HHN is over with all these IP's being more predominant each year. That's my thoughts on it anyway.

JackTheREAPER Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Well look at this year. The 3 originals were insanely successful. The originals this year really climbed to the top with the IPs. But hey, what about chucky? With all the chucky merch this year, could we end up seeing chucky used next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

criticalanalysis Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) Jack is back? Welp, we're off to another rough start. He's the least atmospheric icon by far. Give me the Caretaker, Director - heck, even the Usher - any day of the week. To give them some credit the ending of the video suggests more intensity next year.

IheartNARWHALS Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Really early reveal. There is still 2 nights of HHN 24 and they're already teasing next year?

Mrevio Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) can someone remind me of how well Brian Brushwood's act did? He hasn't performed at HHNO since 2010. I know that other 2-cent magic show in 2011 left a bad taste in my mouth for magic shows. If they get Brian back, he might not bring droves of people into the park, but he isn't shooing them away either. He can bring groups of people out of the wait lines and plop them into either the beetlejuice stage or animal actors.

JackTheREAPER Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Here's something I observed while reading the HHN24 "Relieve The Terror" blog post written by Mr. Aiello: On the part where he begins talking about HHN25, he says "We could not be more excited about the horrific possibilities for our 25th anniversary. The tricks, the treats, the past, the present, and the future... are all being examined." The PAST is being examined. The past for HHN obviously consists of the icons, including Jack. Maybe we will see the other icons. The past also consists of Legendary Truth, which is also returning. However, what if we see the returning of some other amazing HHN hit franchises from the past like Nightengales or Psychoscareapy. We have been hearing about a Nightengales sequel, and this may finally be the year it appears! What better to make a sequel to one of the greatest houses ever than on the 25th anniversary? Now as for the "present", it could easily just mean IPs. The present is what they look at for IPs. As in, what properties people wanna see. Future... guess we'll have to see.... But yeah, that's just some of my observations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foREVer56 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Prop Master could do a deviation of what FEAR did in 2010. Take the props of each icon and summon them back to life to wreak havoc on their anniversary. I hope it's not just Jack. They all deserve to be there for the 25th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelise Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 My GuessesPast: Body Collectors, Psychoscareapy, Legendary Truth, Icons, Dungeon of TerrorPresent: Walking Dead, Halloween 2, American Horror StoryFuture: All new original house I really feel like Psychoscarepy's storyline was wrapped up neatly in 2010. 2003: We are introduced to Shadybrook and its inmates. 2006: We return to Shadybrook and find its newest inmate, Jack, has had a bad influence on the impressionable patients there 2007: We visit the unfortunate suburban neighborhood where Jack and a bus load of the other inmates have escaped and had a lovely Christmas. 2010: We revisit the remains of the long abandoned Shadybrook and the ghosts of the inmates left behind. I'm not sure how the story could be continued in a way that doesn't seem forced like a bad movie sequel. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IheartNARWHALS Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 This is the first time I've ever heard of The Prop Master. Can someone enlighten me? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackTheREAPER Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 They all deserve to be there for the 25th. Especially the Caretaker The Propmaster was a topic that went up early in speculation for HHN24. It was a potential icon for HHN24. Not only was the icon released, but information went out that this "Prop Master" guy would have a scarezone and some other features to the event. I can't remember everything, but later in the year, it was confirmed to be scrapped. I think if they use AHS, it'll end up being for AHS: Freakshow. Just simply because it'll be the new thing for the franchise. But careful what you wish for... American Horror Story could end up being the new Walking Dead.

IheartNARWHALS Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) But careful what you wish for... American Horror Story could end up being the new Walking Dead. This is where I have to disagree with you. the walking dead (i refuse to capitalize it) is the same old same old. Its the same atmosphere and same "characters" (calling zombie characters to make my point later). AHS has a constant changing themes, atmospheres, and characters that it will feel like a new house every year. I don't see how it can get old unless they start coming up with dumb or dull concepts for the show. The only thing tying seasons together is the name. That's it.

xxleftx2xdiexx Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 So we know Jack is back for 25 but we will not know for awhile. Somethings they were testing this week makes it sound like there will be a great deal of interactivity in the park next year. As for what houses that may be a possibility next year are TWD unless the show sinks this season. AHS which I heard was going to be this year. Insidious which I also heard got cut from this year. as for original content an Icon house or scare zones would be great. Nightingales, Body Collectors, and Psychoscareapy would be great to see next year. The other house rumor that was wishful thinking/joke was Killer Clowns from Outerspace which would make sense since Jack is back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecto_Freak Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Insidious was never on the table from my understanding, it would be too much like Dead End. As much I want to see something new with the icons, I have a strange feeling they will do the same thing with them like they did in 2006 and 2010 (Only thing different was FEAR was the main icon). I might note FOX has had a lot of say when it comes to AHS, UO (And I think Hollywood) tried a few times but they cant come to terms with FOX. I know AHS was on the table VERY early this yr but it got dropped early as well. Lastly right now is just brainstorming phase of HHN 25, there not talking to IPs yet nor they know what all they want to do with the event. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
