Halloween Horror Nights 29 General Discussion

[Legacy]

Shifting the conversation a bit but I’m really curious about Graveyard. At first I thought it would be Orfanage in a graveyard but I’m wondering if it’ll lean more into a paranormal angle.

This is the house moving up my anticipated list. I think it's going to surprise people.

Couldn’t agree more!

Agreed. The concepts I've heard make it sound like something we haven't seen much of at HHN. Fun, yet scary, and potentially some really gorgeous scenery.

 

[Living Dead Dude]

Wonder if ghostbusters will be announced today!

 

[JawsVictim]

Does it bug anybody else that Rob Zombie’s getting a scarezone too? Ho1tC is a good IP for a house, but is his music and movies that popular for a SZ?

It also kind of bothers me his scarezone is far away from the house. It’d be a lot cooler to walk through his sz and have it lead into the house’s entrance.

I don't really know enough about Rob Zombie's catalog to make a firm judgement on the first point, but I fully agree with the second.

people at hollywood are saying the next maze announcement won't happen until they annouce a opening date for jurassic world, so it's gonna be a long ride till the next annoucement.

 

[Darko]

This announcement happens when it happens people.

Eh, limitations prevent that. The only current house locations that tie directly to street locations are NY (Soundstages), Hollywood (Shrek), or CP (Parades), and either you don't want RZ in those streets OR those house locations. A compromise would be putting a house in F&F, but it looks like they're not ready for that.

Anything to make that ride stop working for a while.

 

[Darko]

Yeah, let's make good use out of that queue line. It doesn't have any other good use.

I remember thinking while in the pre-shows that if I heard the word "family" one more time, I am strangling a puppy.

Are they using this as a backdoor to bring Michael back to the park but only in a SZ? I mean his movies do have memorable characters kinda? I mean 31 alone has plenty they could pull for a sz.

That Micheal is owned by Dimension, aka the Scream people

Is it really that memorable Zombie did a Halloween and Halloween II reboot? I honestly forgot until you mentioned it.

I quite loved both of his Halloween films. Just 'cause you forgot doesn't mean everyone else did. Hostile opinions towards films is weird to me, seriously, weird.

Wasn’t being hostile, I honestly forgot Zombie directed those films! Those reboots aren’t as memorable to me as the originals - although now that I recall them, I remember both being pretty violent.

My point is, why Zombie this year? I get Ho1TC being a house. But a whole scarezone dedicated to Rob Zombie in 2019? I don’t get it.

As I kinda mentioned earlier, I do wonder if within the A&D team, this is them capitalizing on a desire they've had to work with Rob Zombie for a while. Since Hollywood's takes on HOTC just the few years before the "synchronization" of Orlando were very successful, but the problem then was that Rob Zombie opened his own haunt for a few years.

So I could see this just being a double down because it's someone who has a very...different fanbase to an extent that they haven't really gotten a hold of until now.

Fair enough, that is my fault for reading that as hostile. No idea why I read it like that.

Yeah they were pretty damn violent, but I like that they felt different to the originals.

And yeah, I would prefer just a house and not a SZ as well. A bit too much Zombie maybe.
