Hatchet Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I would be so disappointed if FDTD came back that was easily my least favorite maze and one of my least favorite properties at the event. Yeah richie gecko outside the maze was awesome, and the facade was pretty cool to look at sans the Titty in the name. But the maze itself was so lackluster for me I got scared maybe once out of both the times I went through and a sequel maze seems even worse. Enough with the hispanic theme mazes it takes up a spot every year where we could have so many cooler properties (TrT,Hellraiser). Just make a hispanic theme scare zone like La Llarona to fill that demographic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill and Ted The fate of NY street barkers AHS being worth making into a maze Shows Fast and Furious being open for HHN Insidious-Pretty sure It'll return. Pretty popular property Sinister-I still think Murdy would do either or to be honest Purge- The Scarezone will probably come back hopefully TT as well but at this point it's more wishful thinking than anything Dark Christmas-There seems to be a high demand for it. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it returned as a maze Walking Dead-yea FDTD Return_ Pretty doubtful to be honest. They really wouldn't me saving any money since the new season takes place is different locations, and there's not that much of a demand although the maze was great. B&T-also doubtful since the extra money went towards the 7th maze, and we need it more than ever now that theres no more HOH overlays. NY Barkers-pretty sure that'll blow over. It doesn't seem like this incident was as public as the B&T incident AHS-Theres a couple of new things that could be used now like Edward Mondrake and his group as well as the snuff film chainsaw guys F&F-I hope it'll be open so it can eat up some of the crowd IDK where'd they load people though Edited November 6, 2014 by Ridesandstuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grindhousehero13 Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 The budget grows every year one of the biggest thing helping it grow is TWD. I don't think the 7th was entirely due to the absent of Bill & Ted yes it freed up some of the budget but I don't, Plus we need a show to help with crowds this was the worst year at least from my visit ironically the most fluid part was where they were doing construction. Budget wise it's super smart to just do the Year Of The Blum Universal owns all three (Purge, Insidious Ch. 3, and Sinister) Blum will be backing them so it's a great 1...2...3 Punch.

DTH316 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 NY Barkers-pretty sure that'll blow over. It doesn't seem like this incident was as public as the B&T incident This was pretty widespread actually, and covered on mainstream news and websites where even my regular friends were posting links to it. People then ask me about it since they know I'm a fan. However, for B&T, I had to reach out and inform people about what happened, while this already has the awareness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grindhousehero13 Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 I was in the lower lot a little later then usual and that was bad the biggest line I waited in was for soda. Anyways The year of the Blum is a good way to not rely too much on TWD, we can have a TWD without TT and theme. This was pretty widespread actually, and covered on mainstream news and websites where even my regular friends were posting links to it. People then ask me about it since they know I'm a fan. However, for B&T, I had to reach out and inform people about what happened, while this already has the awareness. I'm kinda hoping the article the Vice dude wrote lighten up the situation of B&T with both how Knott's handled it and that the dude was just looking for attention. I'm mean the dude compared himself to Jesus for Christ's sake....no pun intended. hire new writters explains the no-no's and we should be fine.

UniversalStudiosGeek Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) Definitely >99%- TWD Most likely 75-90%- Purge will come back in some way Dark Christmas maze Insidious returns with Ch 3 now Somewhat likely 40-60%- Maze involving puppets Halloween or FvJ: I'm surprised FvJ hasn't been done yet AHS Trick r Treat Unlikely 15-30%- Sinister: If Insidious returns Murdy won't do Sinister The Conjuring: Probably Saving it for 2016 Repeat of AWiL/AvP Shows returning (B&T, RHPS, etc) FDTD returns Celebration of 10th Year Alice Cooper Returns Extremely Unlikely <10%- The Exorcist Scream Icon (especially an Orlando Icon) Aliens Edited November 6, 2014 by UniversalStudiosGeek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grindhousehero13 Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 I highly doubt AHS at this point. I don't get your guys connection between Sinister and Insidious, Universal owns it now, two Blumhouse Universal owned are highly likely, it's a smart move!

DTH316 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Sinister sucks. Ugh. Please no. It wouldn't make a good maze either. At least the first film's stuff. And I don't think people request it that much now either. I think at the time it was just because people request whatever is out right than. But I haven't seen much desire for it on FB or Twitter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horror lover Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 How long have we been waiting for Trick 'r Treat now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferox Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Murdy said he'd do it if the movie actually comes out. So...we have to wait on that. It will be interesting to see what the most popular maze was this year. I that it was a close race between Face Off, AWIL, and AVP. Now while Face Off does have some chance with a new non-HOH maze since there's always more characters and the environments would be new by nature of not being in the HOH. AWIL is also possible. AVP seems to be the most likely, seeing as it has the biggest draw of the three. I think Orlando reused their AWIL puppets for AVP this year, so they could use the old puppets and some new ones. Change things around a bit since the maze is mostly original. Personally, I'm calling AVP coming back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe theme it as an art museum that's been abandoned and the Face-Off characters are the exhibits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferox Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 What puppets from Orlandos AWIL did they reuse into AVP I don't think they would mix. They reskinned the puppet mechanism. If you look at the way the xenomorphs move vs. how their AWIL puppets moved, they seem to have a similar mechanism. Mechanisms get reused all the time.

If they do it, it will not be the first one since I'm sure they only use whatever is in the second one since Universal is Distributing it. But like most things just wait till it gets released then everyone will bring it up like most mainstream horror. With TWD I don't see anything else coming back to be honest if is was not for that I think you'd be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverEvil1 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Since I don't come from this coast, I can't really speculate on what's going on: but I am going to make a statement for 2016, hear me out: With The Mummy remake/boot "officially" launching the Universal Monsters Cinematic Universe in 2016, I could easily see a case of duel coast synergy on that part. Perhaps not putting Dracula in HOH was a test to see if the Cinematic Universe could be well recieved as full houses, with the mostly action orientation. Obviously, the opinion has been mixed on both coasts, but hey when did that stop anything? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.HHN Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) From Twitter: Having lunch today with a legend, to see if we can work together on HHN 2015. Never would've predicted this one!

Freak Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 From Twitter: Having lunch today with a legend, to see if we can work together on HHN 2015. Never would've predicted this one! Life is strange! Maybe Del Toro? John Carpenter is also a possibility. If it was Del Torror, that would be predictable if he's working on Crimson Peak. Also from Twitter: What I predict they are: 1. Walking Dead 2. Crimson Peak (2015 film/Legendary) 3. Trick 'r Treat (Legendary) 4. The Fog (Lunch with the legend/Carpenter? Film's annicersary) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchet Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 My predictions 1. The Walking Dead (of course its coming back just look at the tv ratings for season 5 so far) 3. Trick R' Treat (sequel in 2015 and fans have been asking for this maze for years) 3. Insidious CH3 (the first maze was considered one of best mazes of all time and the gen pop loved it) 4. Dark Christmas (This is gonna be like a La Llarona case first it was a scare zone then a maze) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.HHN Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Interesting tweet I still think Trick r Treat is too far of a long shot at this point and won't happen unless we get news that the sequel will actually release next year, The Fog might also be a possibility but correct me if I'm wrong don't Murdy work with Carpenter for Halloween back in 09' or did he do it on his own? If he worked with him then it's most likely not him. At first I thought Del Toro but Crimson Peak is a given anyway I think so I think and hope it could be Doug Bradley or Clive Barker. Here's what I think the 4 mazes Murdy was talking about are... 1. The Walking Dead 2. Insidious 3. Sinister 4. Crimson Peak Here's what I think the rest of the line-up is... 5. Hellraiser 6. Friday the 13th (or FvJ) 7. Dark Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
