I can’t simply find the words at the moment how much this means to me, alas, I will try.
I went to my first Halloween Horror Nights in 2017. It’s not an exaggeration to say that night changed my entire life. I loved HHN, every minute of it and when it was time to leave at 2AM, I was so exhausted. But I had two thoughts.
1. I am going to come back and experience this event every single year.
(Which is something I have held true too, even in Covid)
And
2. How cool would it be if Five Nights at Freddy’s came to the event as a house?
After this, for years and years I defended its existence across HNN and IU, usually getting laughed at for even suggesting something so unlikely. Which tbf was a reasonable line of thinking in 2018 and 2019’s speculation seasons. After a while I started losing hope, especially after last year. If not then will it even ever? So when it started to become a rumor this year I stayed highly speculative about how legit the rumor was.
Obviously the years of hoping and wishing have finally payed off and Five Nights At Freddy’s is coming to Halloween Horror Nights (What an insane and surreal thing to finally say)
I could go on forever and ever but the important thing is that now I can really rest.
I wanna say thank you to A&D for bringing my dream to life. Also, I know you have been very particular with collaborations in the past but huge props to Scott Cawthon for finding the time and the energy to bring Freddy and Friends to Universal.
To anyone here that really isn’t familiar with Five Nights, I encourage you to buy and play the first game (It’s very cheap). It’s one of the simplest yet effective horror games I’ve ever played.
Can’t wait for more information and to fully over analyze everything. Truly a dream come true.
