Halloween Horror Nights 35 (UO) - Speculation & Rumors

[Kichkinet85]

I enjoyed Nightmare Fuel but I'm good with them doing something new. 5 years with it is good enough for me!

I really enjoyed NF but after 5 years I’m ready for a change. I loved Nightmare Fuel, Wildfire, and Revenge dream but once they started with the circus theme I was liking I try but not loving. Idk if it was the theme or if it was having it back again. Either way I’m ready for a change.

I play Fortnite weekly with some friends from work and while I don't necessarily have the highest hopes for it at HHN, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited at the thought of how they're going to make it scary and actually tackle the IP (because it's definitely a unique challenge for the creatives!). idk what it says about my mental age when I'm more excited for Fortnitemares than Ozzy ahaha

I hope the rest of you Ohio betas have a skibidi rizz morning. 6-7 and gyatt to you. Or whatever the kids say nowadays (help)

Wth, something wrong with these whipper snappers.

There’s only so much you can do with sexy leather-clad fire dancers ‍ before it got old. 5 years in a row is more than plenty imo.

Are there any clues we have found in maps etc that hint at what the new show might be or are we still thinking TED to Emcee. Would welcome a dark comedy show.

I'm fairly certain that the consensus is that it is a Jack and Chance show. Especially after some of the auditions that HHN has conducted in Orlando. If so, I'm hoping it is better than the one in Vegas... While I haven't been, I've seen videos, and it looks sad... Personally, I would love to see Bill and Ted's again, but kiddos now adays don't know it. I heard that HHN had a call back for certain parts for houses, and they wanted the actors to lip sync to "Monster Mash" (picked because they though it was a generally well-known Halloween themed song, not because it will be used in a house/zone/show) and that almost none of the younger ones had even heard of that song... Has anyone seen my cane? I'm apparently old now.

I get the Bill and Ted thing. Only saw the last year and thought it was EXCELLENT! They don’t appeal to the masses but you could basically have the same comedic set up with any host. If it’s TED or Jack I’m good with it.

In no way shape or form can you judge a show based on the Vegas one. That isn’t a template at all. Thats a tiny stage show to run over 10 minutes.

First saw Bill & Teds in 2001. I was 30. I was with people in their 20s who had never seen the movies. It was always an obscure IP, kids back then didn't know it either.

That said, recognition isn't the issue with bringing it back -- using trademark infringing characters and having political content that blows up on Fox News is the issue. Same would be true of Ted or Harold & Kumar or any other hosts. Fortunately those aren't issues with gory magic tricks, so I expect Jack is back.

This 1000%. It's unfortunate as a B&T Stan, but there is no possible way for them to enforce the no phone rules. Too many clips get out on the internet. I'm hopeful if the Jack and Chance show comes they add in more humor than the one in 25, and throw in a better blend of music.

ok will an Ozzy house still be able to use Black Sabbath music? Real talk here.... @hunnylvr

I'd love it if they used some Black Sabbath as, obviously, loads of that music would lend to some great imagery. Honestly, I could see the remaining members of Sabbath signing off for use of some of it just because of their devotion to Ozzy and the loss they also felt when he passed. If you followed any of the tributes, especially in Birmingham, England, much of it related to Sabbath as well - the murals, the special events, etc. Anyway, even if it's just Ozzy's solo works, there is plenty (more than what they could fit, actually) that would make a great house.

On the Ozzy train of thought - I wonder now if they will wait to announce this house until July 22 which would be one year since he passed. While I HATE having to wait for official confirmation, I'd be really moved by such a tribute.

Hype time!!

scary movie 6 did pretty well so people were accepting of parodies again ( naked gun did pretty well too)
I guess for Bill and Ted they can technically stick to universal and Blumhouse only characters lol.
just use the universal catalog lol. maybe just base the show around bill and Ted meeting the universal monsters like Abott and costello. that would be amazing.

even just for clips on TikTok everyone would wanna record. maybe not the full show but just the best parts.

Crazy train of thought. Smart thinking.
