I don't recall when the MIB facade was visible; but I did note that the first visible construction (lighting posts in Central Park) was on 7/30.

It does. If two years ago someone would’ve told me that Stranger Things is going in a sprung tent, I would’ve been concerned.

With beetlejuice in old parade building more then likely I really hope he’s standing in that little grassy spot welcoming people into his house!

Not saying it's wrong, because I don't have the full details, but where do people keep getting "Dungeon of Terror" as being the overall "theme" to a hypothetical anniversary house?
Why is it seemingly going into a tent?
Scarezone update: This year they are dramatically cutting back on scareactors as you can probably imagine. From a logistical standpoint, we need to start thinking in terms of what would provide decent scares from a distance. I can see "large" sets in Hollywood and New York and scares in the style of last year's Zombieland where a zombie bursts out of the port-o-potty and then goes back in. Think of mini "shows" where an event happens to get your attention but then is gone a few seconds later as to avoid building a crowd. Think of projection mapping, sets, fog and heavy surround sound providing most of the atmosphere in the zones with very little scareactor presence.
DoT as a theme of its own doesn’t really make much sense. But as the first ever HHN-house, it being the host to a compilation even as just a facade piece would make sense.

you hide the actors like with chucky.
same thing as chucky. but with wires. and a vertical curtain
@Ringwraith how much do you think the lack of scare actors will affect the houses?

I've been doing a little bit of research and I'll have to admit, I was very skeptical of a Billie Eilish house and I had a feeling of, "wtf does a 17 year old know about music and life?" And really, I rolled my eyes when I found out this house was rumored. While I still somewhat feel that way in regard to life experience and knowing what true "love" and "loss" feel like, from the mind of a teenager, I do suppose that personal circumstances in life, can expose people to these notions at different points in a respective life. After watching this interview and seeing her creative process(there are 3 videos prior to this, in the same article), I have a lot more respect for what she can offer from a haunt perspective. I highly recommend going down this rabbit hole, because it may open your mind and provide some excitement as to what we could possibly see. Her and her brother both have kinesthesia, which can make for a truly visceral and mind blowing experience, if we're going to be walking through her brain. There are so many visuals in the interview, from her journal, songs etc. that are haunting, so I think we're in for a real treat.
I keep hearing throughout the haunt industry that this is the "year of special effects" when it comes to haunts. I'm actually very excited for the lack of scareactors because I'm one to take in the visuals and so therefore I will be less distracted by someone screaming in my face. I'm sad that there are good people that won't have jobs this year, because of it, but on the other hand, I think it will make the houses better as a whole.

billie eilish house Confirmed scariest house in hhn history. im calling it now. im redicting shes gonna have the most scariest house we have ever seen.
for real, only because no one is expecting it and also because they will wanna prove everyone that doubted her wrong, as well as because her house will be thinking outside the box.
her house wont be a typical house so it will be very scary.
maybe like a DMT trip but demonic
I'm excited for a potential Billie house more than anyone, but this is just overcorrecting at this point. Just wait until the house is actually announced, built, cast, and at least a single guest has gone through before setting any true expectations for it, good or bad.

Visually speaking, it has a ton of potential. One thing I'm very much against, is her voice. I'm not a fan of the "whisper singing" generation that we've bred as a whole, so I may have to walk in with ear plugs. Although, with her, it may lend to the creepy feel of the atmosphere.

Very true. There are so many variables of what makes a great house. You can have a dream IP get botched (The Shining), a thrown together house that A&D didn’t care about get elevated by its cast (Blumhouse Vol. 1), and the perfect combination of design and casting (Scarecrow).

As of rn billie is one of my most anticipated because we have legit no idea how it can play out!

Whoh whoh whoh...you actually want people to do some research before forming an oppinion?
Honestly, I just like seeing new IP’s even if they happen to be a pseudo-horror music artist. I’ll take Billie over whatever variation of TCM we’re getting. Of course, I will admit being quite...”bored” with the 2016 house so maybe in that case I have bias.

Easy scare zone solution this year: Dear Uncle Stevie King, just make peace with Uni/HHN/haunts already and allow a Christine zone or a Maximum Overdrive zone (because we all know how much you love Maximum Overdrive). No actors needed. Boom.

Or we could get that movie about the tire that kills people as a zone and not have to worry about king
