Since the head's out of the bag.

 

Clue Set 1 – “Babylegs” (Announced Dead Exposure: Patient Zero/Codename Zero)

 

Part 1

Part 2

https://masterofallscience.com/video/S01E08/E-iboRmcdE_CmKZMaK3OLFWY7U0=.gif

 

Rule – Word Exchange

Solution – In Part 1, the word “Detective” is replaced by the word “Cop.” A Detective is similar to a Private Investigator. Boris Schuster, the protagonists of Dead Exposure in 2008 was a PI. In Part 2, “Daddy Legs” replaces “Regular Legs” to key on a replaced word.

 

Clue Set 2 – “Mind Blowers” (Announced Trick R Treat/Codename Dynamite)

https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E08/wPNxfU_TWkVEtOhez8ka_gwO7GU=.gif

 

Rule – Word count

Solution – Counting the words in each line of the clue gives you 4-2-2. This translates to a time of 4 minutes, 22 seconds (it’s the only option in a 30 minute show). At that time mark in the Rick and Morty episode “Morty’s Mind Blowers,” Rick states “They don't all have titles, though. It's not a "Simpsons" Halloween special, more like a clip show made of clips you never saw!”

 

The movie Trick R Treat, as an anthology, is ‘like a clip show,’ dedicated to Halloween.

 

Clue Set 3 – “Dammit Jerry”

 

Part 1

Slightly off topic, but going back to It and The Shining......does anyone know why King hates haunted houses/mazes so much, especially considering how many crappy movie adaptations there have been of his books? (I'm looking at you Needful Things)

Moved some TrT posts into the TrT topic. 

 

A quick word regarding linguistics, semantics, and language. 

 

Words can have many meanings beyond the ones that are most familiar. 

 

Take sleight, for instance. The first synonyms that come to mind are sly, deception, trick. 

 

Other synonyms to sleight are dexterity, nimbleness, adeptness, quickness, stratagem,  skill, craft, scheme. 

 

When creating or solving riddles/hints/clues word choice is important. Words can be used to confuse or to clarify. 

 

Using a synonym can, sometimes, alter perception and solving paths. Sometimes, a synonym is used to highlight a difference. 

 

To figure out Clue 7, we have to figure out what definition @Legacyis using for sleight. Is sleight a trick or skill.

If you're asking? It's the first one.

I only mostly have a grasp on where things are, but does this confirm 9 houses, or is there one to be revealed? Is the new location included in the permits? 

Sorry, just trying to see if this is more or less evidence of a 10th house.

So where are we with speculation? I feel (as per usual) we swing in confidence between properties but what are we confident in and now losing confidence in? I am still shocked to see Halloween going lower and lower down the totem pole of confidence, as in my mind that makes such business sense and would be such a shoe in....

I think Rag-Tag might be the secret house.

I hope Feature is a return of Bloodengutz.

I think Snacks is about people being turned into food for someone(s) or something(s). Clue 6?

I have a pretty good handle on Meteor, though I'm sworn to secrecy.

They said 9 houses on the blog, but that could be a decoy...OR could mean an upcharge house.

Halloween is not coming. "Allegedly."

Permits don't post all at one. 

 

The MiB permit is only for the tent, not the construction of the house. We only have 8 house permits as of right now. 

There is rumor a third tent is being built backstage by the other two sprungs, since apparently some portables were removed.

Unsure about IT. 

No Halloween and no AHS. At least in house form. I don't know why The Thing or Lost Boys would be considered "no way in hell," since the only "confirmations" I have for missing HHN28 are Halloween and AHS.

I'm glad the rumors of Lost Boys are likely false. If we didn't already have two light-hearted houses confirmed (granted, both of which I'm pumped for), it could work.

So you don't have "IT" as a confirmation for missing HHN28?

From this point on, I think the announcements are going to be extra interesting. Especially the originals. Does anyone know if they will stick to the two or three week at a time schedule and if the next one will be an original, keeping with the pattern?

I'll watch for another tent permit. I'm still sweeping the permits as often as I can since new addresses are being used. 

 

The only other Universal tent install that I've seen was near SS33. The tents (there were two) weren't large enough for a house, and were most likely for a media event.
