I'm guessing that the ride is down because they never seem to run close to capacity during the night and as a "group" show it's probably been costing them to run it, I've never seen the wait longer than 5min at hhn, but if they are having a scare zone there it really kinda only makes sense to keep the games and food open money makers and small time crowd control so I'd really think nothings different BUT no ride 2 minutes ago, StupidStupidDan said: HHN28 commercial is up. https://twitter.com/HorrorNightsORL/status/1034109540512526338 Kinda wish we'd seen Sam in there somewhere rather than Myers or both but oh well ones more easily recognized 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without spoiling anything, Stranger Things involves some Telekinesis (thought not sure that's the exact right term) where someone could go into a sensory deprivation tank and "project" themselves somewhere else. It's a trope from a lot of movies that when it happens they're in a plain of existence that has a floor of water with an all back background replicating the tank a bit. Saw some posts on other pages with people saying they ripped off some other movie and it makes no sense, but it's used in Stranger Things too. The Upside Down is pretty much what they showed in the reveal video and is a real/physical world where as the water part is just a projection. For fans of the show, that was purposefully vague and not telling the whole story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HHN Pro Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Question: Since there's no Stay-N-Scream at Hello Kitty this year, where will the third one be? Diagon Alley? Because this is what I imagined: Finnegan's --> Stranger Things Diagon Alley --> The Horrors of Blumhouse Springfield --> Slaughter Sinema/Dead Exposure: Patient Zero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oysterhead00 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 If the "Most Anticipated Brackets" are accurate, this year will be even better for me since I've voted for the "loser" every time so far...I hope the lines at the event reflect this :-) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't seen that. You know, I think it's possible that Stranger Things isn't one of the early release houses. Maybe Finn's releases to Poltergeist and the other NY area houses. It could be a way to combat everyone rushing from the main gate running into a ridiculously long line already there, plus overcrowding in whichever S&S releases to Stranger Things. Just a thought. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They stopped doing Hello Kitty at a certain point last year, reserving it for overflow only, which was rarely needed. I don't think they would keep Stranger Things out of early release though, as potentially beneficial as that would be for the people at the front gate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is true. They could easily make an non ip to force people to go through that original maze to get the numbers up. I think it would be an IP though. You don't want to get guest upset. There is something in SF / FF area maybe for Rock the Universe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing since stranger things is their big draw IP this year they're going to give us a sneak peak, not putting money on seeing the demogorgon yet as that's what EVERYONE is gonna wanna see and that would be a waste...but probably a walk through video of the cast of the show like they did with walking dead! Assuming the maze is ready to go that is, I'm guessing it would be or at least enough for them to do a basic run with them since we have about a week before opening. Not a lot of spoilers for those of us looking for details but it will hype up the general population that's showing up BECAUSE of Stranger Things!

Like, if you wanted to "attempt" to influence the HHN team for HHN29, you should have started in January of 2018.

That's what I figured, being I'm not an insider at all I have no clue how late finishing touches might run for any given house that was more a benefit of the doubt kinda line, but this was the first announced and the big draw I would have been shocked if they WEREN'T loooong finished!! Was kinda expecting a little more for their sneak peak tho given how "cryptic" they were, giving a heads up the night before and all but ehh oh well like I figured it seemed more for general population who aren't as in the loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
