Halloween Horror Nights 34 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

[kristenabelle]

The SFX article today has some new details:

• Confirmation that Art will be roaming the park ala Jack in 2021 (plus other characters!).

Haaaaate this lol. If you see someone sprinting and shrieking out of the park, it's probably me

The SFX article today has some new details:

• FNaF will be taking over one of the restaurants (presumably Louie's), so you'll be able to dine at Freddy's.

Has to be. Don't know what else they can do that will fit FNAF.

• Confirmation that Art will be roaming the park ala Jack in 2021 (plus other characters!).

I don't know if I like this. With Jack roaming the park fit as he was the Icon and ringmaster of the event. IDK Art will just seem odd to me roaming the park.

• Besides the zombies at Mel's, there will be chainsaw hoards roaming around the park again.

Finally!

• Confirmation that next year will be treated as an anniversary year, and all 5 originals already approved.

Wow, already approved and this year hasn't even started (we do only have 16 days and 15 if you count Premium scream, 14 for TM preview)

Glad the roaming Art is happening. I feel like Art’s best moments are the ones where he is just messing around-being goofy. Those types of interactions work well for the streets.

Exactly what I was thinking. I'm sure the house will have moments of scripted comedy, but it's hard to capture that kind of energy when the beat has to repeat every seven seconds and the performer's face is trapped behind a mask.

So if Louie's is being "converted" to Freddy Fazbear's.. shouldn't we be seeing some work on it by now?

And the roaming Art thing is kinda strange.. have they done that with an IP before?

It's possible they may have to transition from day > night on event days? IDK - total guess on my part. Not sure how much, if anything, they'll want to keep out during the day

If anything I think they'd really be shooting themselves in the foot by not having it in FNAF mode during the day

I disagree.
You wanna see Freddy’s? Come to horror nights. Easiest way to get a return on your investment is to actually get RETURN on your investment.

Open it all day. It's no different than having food booths open during normal park hours. Their return on investment is you buying food, not you buying a HHN ticket -- that's where the shows/zones/houses get their return from.

Except this is different. This is FNAF we are talking about. A food spot themed after this IP will be MUCH more popular than all the other usual booths. It could even be one of the big reasons to get a FNAF fan to buy a ticket to the event.

I'm not exactly sure how a rethemed restaurant could be accomplished in the even transition though.

Put up a sign and a couple posters?

But you'd have to pay to get in the park during the day?

And it would serve as free advertising

And provides photos for the setting when there's not a tour option

If they wanted to swap out to Fredward mode every night any large props during the day would have to be covered up and signs would have to be uninstalled and reinstalled - why?

It could even be one of the big reasons to get a FNAF fan to buy a ticket to the event.

I would assume the house would do that.

If there's an operations reason for it that would make sense. If they don't do it my first assumption would be rights usage or limitations from the creator.

Edit: if they were really forward thinking the restaurant could be themed to the location of the sequel restaurant

Exactly the point.

Let's say this is the most popular food spot in the entire park for 2 months. Are these FNAF fans going to visit it and NOT buy the themed food and beverage being sold at it during the daytime hours? They gotta eat at one point or another in the day.

Honestly, agreed. As much as I don't care for the franchise, I will say the best moments are whenever Art is just generally clowning around and being out in the open/streets gives a way better opportunity for that than in a house.

For me it's akin to the KKFOS zone in 2018, that zone was pure fun from the Klowns just clowning around. So I hope to heck the various Art's out in the park can goof around like that, since unlike the house, I'd actually look forward to that!

Does anyone have a link to the article?

Spec thread should be short next year LOL

Spec thread should be short next year LOL

*crosses fingers they just announce everything in November so we can just not*

EDIT - I only kinda mean that. I have a really good idea for next year’s Easter Egg hunt, and an early reveal would ruin it.
