Joelimitsu Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Would Beetlejuice be a possibility? A lot of people did like the maze it got last year (Including me), so could it be possible for it to come back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHNGuy27 Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 (edited) As far as I'm aware, Beetlejuice didn't do very well with the GP and it was probably due to all the Covid restrictions/precautions that were in place. I could see them doing Beetlejuice again, but not for a very long time. Edited November 11, 2022 by HHNGuy27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just love Beetlejuice and I want to see what they could do with it if it had few new touches or if it went to Hollywood 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHNGuy27 Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 I loved the Beetlejuice house, but the restrictions/precautions REALLY hindered it, unfortunately. I know that Hollywood lost the IP, but the reason behind it is kind of unknown. So I'm not sure if Warner Bros. is willing to work with Hollywood again with that specific IP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HHNGuy27 Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 Just began working on a speculation map for 32. It won't be out for a while because I am waiting on some information about the event, so stay tuned...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fear2010 Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 I can’t wait to see it! Will your spec map include the scarezones, or you’re just predicting the houses first? You could throw in some original concepts as wild picks other than as wishful thinkings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHNGuy27 Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 Some of the houses will be spec, but a couple will actually be rumored houses. Chucky will be on there of course lol. Zones will spec as well because the info on them is always muddy and takes forever to come out. I might just go ahead and drop a map that is pure speculation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fear2010 Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 (edited) Casper Gutman made an interesting thought on Inside Universal. Do you guys find it striking this year with a right-down amount and variety of slasher merchandises? Every park and/or haunt goer had a different shirt that is either brought at the Studios for HHN, custom made, elaborately made, or cleverly made. It’s possible that a lot of different outlets made a good chunk of money off of characters like Michael. There were only a few Weeknd shirts when I was there on opening night, and nearly all of those were in stock at their shops. I do find it interesting how most fans and vets always treat newer IP’s at the event as an element of something new and intriguing while all the rest that have been there more than once are old popular demands. The general public would argue Halloween was the biggest spark of the year cause they didn’t offer any other IP’s that appeals to them personally other than Abel and the Monsters. I do see a trend of one slasher house or maybe two if necessary to represent once per year like Chucky and maybe my wildcard for 32. Would the sub-genre ever get a bigger representation again like Carnival of Carnage at 17? I unfortunately don’t see it as well cause Universal doesn’t control the rights of those IP’s, some aren’t popular in today’s world, and some are horribly in a train wreck when it comes to ownership and handling the rights. *Coughs* Friday The 13th *Coughs* The biggest common grounds between slasher icons like Micheal, Leatherface, Jason, Chucky, Ghostface, and Freddy is how big they are in pop culture both historically and symbolically.

HHNGuy27 Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 I believe they will go after slashers more often from now on. Halloween was RIDICULOUSLY popular this year. Way more popular than The Weeknd and Blumhouse. Slasher icons are the biggest parts of the horror genre and it would be silly for Universal to not go after them more. F13, Elm Street, Hellraiser, and Scream are most likely off the table, but I believe F13 and Hellraiser may be obtainable soon. IPs like Silence of the Lambs, Terrifier, Leprechaun, Chucky, Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Happy Death Day are obtainable and deserve MUCH more representation at the event. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHNGuy27 Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Here is my very first speculation map for HHN 32! Everything on here (besides Chucky) is pure speculation. C:\Users\capta\Downloads\HHN 32 Spec Map 1 (1).png 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HHNGuy27 Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 It kind of did this year lol. The Black Phone section of The Horrors of Blumhouse was super long and felt like a fully-fledged house. It took up 3 tents! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinfear Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Even though I loved Blumhouse volume three with Freaky and The Black Phone, I don’t really think we need to see either one of these properties return. They both did great in the house and were given a lot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fear2010 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 I actually wouldn’t mind Black Phone to come back as a full house at some point. Both Joe Hill and Scott Derrickson had some talks about a potential sequel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelimitsu Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Another horror movie I want to see as a maze but probably won't is Escape Room 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHNGuy27 Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Never say never. They're always bringing IPs that are niche. Killer Klowns From Outer Space, Freaky, Krampus, House of 1000 Corpses, Ash vs Evil Dead, and From Dusk Till Dawn are examples of niche IPs that have been at the event. There aren't niche IPs at the event every year, but they do happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelimitsu Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 I'm saying in terms of how it can be turned into a house. There are no jump scares in Escape Room. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did it with GB and Beetlejuice fairly well. 3 minutes ago, Joelimitsu said: I can't access it Did you copy the link and try to open it in a separate window?

Joelimitsu Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 I can see The Last of Us working. However, Why are you making Tales from The Crypt a Scarezone when it has so much material to make into a house? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHNGuy27 Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Because I feel like Universal would want to test it as a scare zone first. KKFOS and Trick r Treat, which are on the same level as TFTC, were tested as scare zones first. Also, a Tales From The Crypt scare zone was planned for this year but was ultimately scrapped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
