Halloween Horror Nights 31 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

[Crypt Keeper]

Edit: Gotta fix a couple things lol

Well, y'all might be getting an announcement soon, but I thought because there may have been some disappointment today that I would finally drop one of my personal speculation maps. I never release these things, but this year after reading about how HHN Nightmares creates their maps and how much resources I have, I thought I would release mine. Enjoy the speculation map:

Everyone should make spec maps and post them here lol

Ignore the rest stop. It's a map template from 2020 lmao.

Something I'd like to revisit is Joe mentioning SS22 is an original.

So either Fear Street/Stranger Things was splitting a soundstage (which feels very unlikely), or it's been replaced with an original.

Or Netflix was never on this year’s slate…

Now that is a twist. Thank you for the clarification!

Hmmm...

Well whatever angle the original in the soundstage is going, it sounds like it's very well seeped in various Halloween monsters (hence why the spec initially thought it was Wicked Growth 2).

Now the spec of the Bug House/50's Giant Bug house being in a Sprung tent is a tad surprising, since if they're going in the route of the 50's giant insect movies, one might think a soundstage would be better suited for it. But then it got me thinking, if we're thrown into a really tight corridor with giant puppets, that could better portray us being a lot smaller than them in a pretty scary way. And of course, if they're going in the route of something more seriously creepy crawly, then I know several folks who'll probably LOATHE going through this house!

Wicked Growth 2 was speculated last year—before anything was known about this year—based purely on pumpkins and 31. It was never actually rumored though.

Regarding Bugs… people keep saying “giant.” Are they expecting giant compared to us or giant compared to bugs?

I think "Norwegian" got mistranslated somewhere. I believe that is close to the right idea, but the actual meaning is quite different.

I dont expect anything but I might be upset if there is not a mind flayer sized spider for us to walk under.

That's so corporate lmao

More than likely a contract thing with the IP they are releasing. We don't need another beetlejuice incident

I always hear about this but I'm not really sure - what happened with Beetlejuice?

Merch was put out too early so WB pulled the IP for last year on the west coast

 

[GlitterandGloom41]

So expecting the announcement today now on account of Murdy’s “Tomorrow” gif right?
(And hey! this is actually my first post here after lurking for a while)

Please don't give us a Viking house. The scarezone was not great and I don't really need a Vikings house

I wasn't a fan of the zone, but I think a well-executed Vikings house could be really cool.

Pretty sure everyone has unanimously speculated that the bugs themselves will be giant.

But, if they won’t, that’s pretty interesting. An ankle-biter styled bug house could be super cool.

I don’t like bugs, so no matter what size they are, I am terrified

 

[GlitterandGloom41]

I’m fine with bugs, but I’m kinda worried about how it’s done, because I think there’s a good chance my wife legit might not want to do that house lol she hates bugs that much.

“No announcement because no merch” is some wild tail wagging the dog stuff. Lordy.
