Halloween Horror Nights 28 General Discussion

[horrornights789]

So after today’s announcement we know this:

Zero - Dead Exposure: Patient Zero(state by Legacy to be in Sprung Tent 1)
Fireball - Stranger Things(Season 1)(probably in a SS)

So that leaves us with:

Surprise
Feature - Stated by Legacy to be a potential original
Snacks - Stated by Legacy to be a potential original
Poison
Coach
Dynamite
Ragtag

Hollywood is getting announcement in May, wishful thinking is that it’ll be shared but given today’s announcement I’m not sure. Does Orlando have any exclusive IP’s?

What's a stronger word for probable?

 

[OhHaiInternet95]

What's a stronger word for probable?

I'm betting SS 19.

 

[Legacy]

I'm betting SS 19.

I'll take that bet...

Double or nothing?

 

[horrornights789]

Is Nightmare on Elm Street still being speculated? Talks on that IP seems to have died down a lot

Hmm, that came out in '84.

 

[horrornights789]

Hmm, that came out in '84.

It’d be funny if they had a house set in every year for the 80’s. We already have one in ‘83 and one in ‘82. Curios to see if they connect DE2 to the 2008 DE considering ones in the 2000s America and the other is 1980’s Paris

Edit- After looking up 28 Days Later this house sounds like an original spin on that IP. The logos are undeniably similar(which btw the new logo is awesome!!!)

 

[CoopF22]

Hmmmmmmm ..
Halloween 2 - 1981
Dead Exposure - 1982
Stranger Things - 1984
Aliens - 1986
Lost Boys - 1987
IT (2017) - occurs in 1989

Any connections for any other speculated house for 1983,1985 or 1988?

We're on the same page buddy

I'm fairly sure that Dead Exposure was set in the late 50s.

So... Let me try to share some information to feed speculation without giving away the goat.

- I've heard about a new house location this year.
- Including Dead Exposure, I've heard details on five potential originals. One is extremely likely (95%). One is very likely (85%). I have no reason to doubt the other two yet.
- I can see one of the potential originals MAYBE actually being an IP.
- I'm confident (90%) on two unannounced IPs.
- I'm 75% confident on one other IP.
- There are 2 IPs I'm 50/50 on.
- Everything else, including some expected favorites, I'd chalk as longshots.

Oof so this one is a sequel; guess I need to brush up on my HHN lore.

I feel like Halloween & AHS are the most likely IP’s. Trick ‘r Treat shouldn’t be too hard to get either(75%), and I could see NoES & Lost Boys as 50/50. Also, idk why but I feel like whatever Feature is is gonna end up as an IP. Also thank you for help keeping speculation alive this year Legacy


Edit - Most of y’all probably know this(I didn’t), but Patient Zero will actually be the 3rd in the Dead Exposure/Zombiegeddon franchise

Well, maybe it was in the 2000s and guests were through the mirror so to speak. It's a bit confusing. Check out Mary's Journal, specifically the Charlie McPherson entry from an archived 2008 website.

BTW, what a great website that year had. Probably the best one Orlando ever produced.

Seriously, that year in general was a MASTERPIECE. Was extremely fortunate to experience it.

This is where The Lost Boys talk could fit in like Romero and Dead Exposure.

VAMP (instead of '55 ... '80-something) / The Lost Boys?

Guessing the F&F area to replace the MIB tent area because of FFL's demolition.

- Including Dead Exposure, I've heard details on five potential originals. One is extremely likely (95%). One is very likely (85%). I have no reason to doubt the other two yet.

- I can see one of the potential originals MAYBE actually being an IP.

- I'm confident (90%) on two unannounced IPs. I'm thinking these are Halloween mashup and AHS Cult.

- I'm 75% confident on one other IP.
Guessing this is Trick R Treat.

- There are 2 IPs I'm 50/50 on.
So these last two spots are being battled out between originals and IPs.

So, anywhere from a 6/3 or 4/5 original/IP split, though one might be a hybrid.

- Everything else, including some expected favorites, I'd chalk as longshots.

 

[horrornights789]

I could see Lost Boys end up being Vamp ‘88 or something like that considering we thought Dead Exposure would be George Remoro.

All I'll say is three of those IPs aren't happening. And possibly a 4th. I'm iffy on the 4th.

If I had to guess Aliens, IT, and Lost Boys aren’t happening. Halloween could be iffy since they’ve been really tight lipped(and also IIRC Miramax is one of the producers). Hopefully this means NoES & Trick ‘r Treat can happen if it’s right

I'm thinking of something else.

EDIT - To clarify. There's no real question on that anymore.

So does that confirm we’re getting a full on Lost Boys house or did I completely misread it

Edit - Maybe Poltergeist is the original? If it’s not Lost Boys I cant see an original Trick ‘r Treat or NoES

I thought you meant werewolves instead of vampires and had a quick Dog Soldiers dream
