So... if my wife wins the Twitter poll in my signature (and in Chit Chat), I'll spoil the name for Poison...
(Crass, don't care. All's fair in twitter battles...)

Scary Tales: Deathly Ever After? Don’t think “deathly” is right but all I can think of right now

You were remarkably close.
The official name for Poison is:
Scary Tales: Deadly Ever After
The Wicked Witch features prominently in the story... and thanks for putting us over the top.

HELL YES. Guessing that’s why everyone(me especially) kept assuming it was gonna be Oz. Do you know if the Emerald City is gonna make an appearance?
Also guessing the facade is gonna be the Castle from Path of the Wicked
Close but no cigar. But probably the closest I’ve ever been in trying to decipher your clues! Haha. Guess you lost the bet then?
OMG I am freaking out! This couldn't be better! Thx @Legacy for the name. It is exactly what was my whish (on my top 3 of my whishing list)

So all that’s left to speculate is what’s going in Meteor(S.o.X.), The Horrors of Blumhouse 2, and Halloween 4. Also Murdy said to expect a maze announcement this week for an IP(my bet is Poltergeist)
So months ago it was shared that scene 7 of Scary Tales was called “Splatter”. Any thoughts?

Reuse of the Dorothy Death from ST3? That scene had her brain hanging out her head and Toto was splattered all over the wall. Maybe the WW’s death but if she’s the main villain they probably won’t kill her off
Long shot but when people started talking about this being Oz I thought of the 80’s sequel “Return to Oz”. In that the scarecrow has a pumpkin head. Linking with splatter I’m thinking maybe an execution scene, where the scarecrow’s pumpkin head is smashed by a big hammer? Doubt it’s right but has been in the back of my mind for a while now....

So happy to see my all time favorite house back!
I’m guessing we see HHN Bear?

Ask and receive...
Clue Set 1 – “Babylegs” (Announced Dead Exposure: Patient Zero/Codename Zero)
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S01E08/q36gFUxzTwP3g-kcTBbU85FfoaA=.gif
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S01E08/E-iboRmcdE_CmKZMaK3OLFWY7U0=.gif
Rule – Word Exchange
Solution – In Part 1, the word “Detective” is replaced by the word “Cop.” A Detective is similar to a Private Investigator. Boris Schuster, the protagonists of Dead Exposure in 2008 was a PI. In Part 2, “Daddy Legs” replaces “Regular Legs” to key on a replaced word.
Clue Set 2 – “Mind Blowers” (Announced Trick R Treat/Codename Dynamite)
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E08/wPNxfU_TWkVEtOhez8ka_gwO7GU=.gif
Rule – Word count
Solution – Counting the words in each line of the clue gives you 4-2-2. This translates to a time of 4 minutes, 22 seconds (it’s the only option in a 30 minute show). At that time mark in the Rick and Morty episode “Morty’s Mind Blowers,” Rick states “They don't all have titles, though. It's not a "Simpsons" Halloween special, more like a clip show made of clips you never saw!”
The movie Trick R Treat, as an anthology, is ‘like a clip show,’ dedicated to Halloween.
Clue Set 3 – “Dammit Jerry” (Announced as Carnival Graveyard: Rust in Pieces/Codename Rag-tag)
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S02E06/pZUsQfuhnqxF7JO7l010rSOldas=.gif
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S01E07/A1YZKl_tTWPNlxcFIbhFD_pxlq0=.gif
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E05/mSjhEL39unrtvjFFhjTD2bf3Yw8=.gif
Rule – Elements of Story
Solution – The elements of story are: Plot, Character, Setting, and Theme. The gifs present the first three things in that order (“theme” is not traditionally considered in a haunted house). The Plot is to escape (expressed in the gif). The second gif alludes to the “Character” – The “easy target” Rick and Jerry reference in the episode is the Insane Clown Posse. The third gif is, literally, a destroyed carnival ride (the Whirly Dirly). In the house, we are escaping insane “clowns” (carnies, specifically) through a destroyed carnival.
Clue 4 – “Saving Rick” (Spoiled by Legacy as Poltergeist/Codename Coach)
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E01/43-0myzkor8MU6r9QG0fIDh-oZ4=.gif
Rule – Context
Solution – This one… should be pretty obvious. The context of the scene is summer, digging up a Rick’s decaying corpse from the back yard (during a storm) so she can open a portal to save a family member. In Poltergeist, corpses are found in the backyard and they open a portal to save a family member.
Clue 5 – “Pink” (Spoiled by Legacy as Scary Tales: Deadly Ever After/Codename Poison)
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E09/q2MRHgCy4sv2x_QVwbaJKGwXqnc=.gif
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E09/UmaCc-rDTwLqBm4QzY5-cxOJmjI=.gif
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E09/o2KhY4SN0_O_NK8aNfE_osgrebo=.gif
Rule – Analogy
Solution – All the dialogue in this series is irrelevant. They’re red herrings, and the clues more story-centric (I got the story for this house, but not the title, which made it a bit difficult). It also requires some understanding of the episode. Froopy Land is an “imaginary” place from Beth’s (Rick’s daughter) childhood. Entry into this land is through a rainbow portal, and Froopy Land is now ruled by “King Tommy” a childhood friend of Beth that has been trapped there for decades (like the Wizard). During the episode, Beth returns and ends up killing the denizens of Froopy Land and overthrowing Tommy.
It’s not Oz. Froopy Land is not Oz. But this house features a Wicked Witch (Beth) “breaking” the rainbow barrier and killing everyone who lives there. So, it’s an analogy.
Clue 6 – “Pickle”
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E03/ku5PBVj7j3nDcsYp1FKI4D9uWuc=.gif
Rule – None
Clue 7 – “Nihilism”
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S02E07/HSUJbtUoZNvLfxrjwD2dY-SG3AY=.gif
Rule – Sleight
Clue 8 – “Ship” (Announced Slaughter Sinema/Codename Snacks)
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S03E02/D_K2Pse2xzlS7e8w7YNl184z5LA=.gif

https://masterofallscience.com/video/S02E02/4mHot7mQPIXy5uJTfoLVh8znsr0=.gif
Rule – Disarray
Solution – There’s a lot of gifs for this because, obstensibly, it’s a mash-up (9 total gifs for 9 scenes). Gifs 1 & 3-8 are all movie parodies/references specific to sci-fi or horror films (schlock staples). Gif number 2 is a bit of a cheat, as it indirectly relates to a scene in the house. In Gif 9 (Grandpa and the Government), the words don’t matter. The ship itself has driven into the facility, just like you would a drive-in.
Clue Set 9 – “Crow”
https://masterofallscience.com/video/S02E02/b4MiiVti6-jstB4bpKBT6qyi22s=.gif
Rule - Dig
They could kill her off. You know universal love two things in their attractions. Screens. And water effects :clap:
