UNIVERSAL MONSTERS

 

 

Has it been announced somewhere outside the website?

[WESKER69]

Was there a need to quote that? No. And yea, its called it was technically announced when the website was updated, just look at the screenshot in the spec thread. Murdy confirmed the official announcement is today so he can discuss it at the ScareLA panel on sunday.

Here is a link to the entire ScareLA presentation, along with link from a different vantage point.  Slash was in fact one of the guest stars.  They played quite a bit of the music you will hear near the end of the video.  Unfortunately, ScareLA was completely different this year.  Very small and only in one big room.  So no dedicated presentation room for HHN.  Instead it was out in the open, next to an eating area, with all the noise from the booths spilling in.  And to make matters worse, the only projection screen was far offset from the stage.  No doubt about it - Midsummer Scream has become THE event to go to; ScareLA is stumbling.

 

Gotta say, this is easily the most intriguing house of the lineup for me.  They are treating each of the monsters in an original way, so I'd count this as an original.  Orlando did their original take on Frankenstein and Dracula years ago and those were great, so I see no reason why this would not - except for the fact that it is in Parisian Courtyard which necessitates long black hallways.  Please o please let them not just resort to drop panel/strobe scares.

One thing kinda confuses me, so when guests enter through the main entrance, that being Frankenstein’s lair. 

Do they immediately enter through the film vault portion? Or is that in the gauntlet section of the beginning of the maze?
