Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

[HHNIcon]

I've heard that the Yeti original is the Japanese original, but I'm not sure if the Japanese aspect is a part of it anymore.

I’ve heard a different location rumored for yeti. I don’t think it’s a Japanese original

The Soundstage houses have been hard for me to pinpoint.

Come to think of it, a Samurai Yetis house would be insane lol.

A few more tidbits from "Pinhead" on Reddit:

What I will tell you is that both sprungs are originals, both parades are IPs, Chucky is in F&F, and it's a 5/5 split. The IPs are super strong, and one of the SS originals (located in one side of 24) is likely to be in the running for HOTY.

If true, Chucky in the wrong place in the map--I'm wondering if that SS might be the Crossroads house. Just sounds like something that would be a passion project/HotY candidate.

Also I'd still put money on ST being in Parade 2--longest queue, most exposure to dining and retail for casual guests just there for that house. If TLoU truly in Parade 1 as well, going to greatly unbalance Stay & Scream.

I'm guessing they don't do IPs in the sprungs anymore due to crowd flow?

No Japan

As I recall, the location of any house depends on what they require for it. Tall sets? Soundstage or Parade. A Flyer/Bungee? Once again, Soundstage or Parade. If they don't need any of those, and it can thrive in a tighter/claustrophobic environment, then something like the Sprung tents or F&F can be doable.

We already know Chucky is in F&F, and when you look at the rumored IP's like TLoU, ST and Monsters being in Paris (Opera house and Notre Dame aren't exactly compact...), they'll most likely require the bigger locations.

How do we know Chucky is in F&F? Did I miss something?

“Rumors” but that’s where it is

Ah okay. Thought I may have missed something.

I'm not sure if it would be possible with the animals being housed backstage there.

My mind is still leaning toward a few options.

New parade building: Springfield or at one of the old Sprung tent entrances (although they may want to avoid that bottleneck again)

Old parade building: Route through ET, or enter backstage by Cafe La Bamba (but this would be a loooong walk)

I remember The In-Between queue going through some of Animal Actors bird cages.

But I think both parade houses will enter by the Quick E Mart. Parade one route will detour on the south side of the building with some pathways elevated over the drainage. Then both parade buildings can exit through the normal ET route.

Just trying to get caught up with the inside lingo.
I know this is probably a stupid question , The rumor that Chucky is in F&F and is a “5/5 split”. I never heard that term , Does that mean half is season 1 and half season 2???

For clarification, the "5/5 split" refers to Five IP's and Five original houses.

Thanks ! I knew it was a stupid question.

Don't sweat it. We all use lots of (fun) weird nerd jargon and shorthands, so there's nothing wrong with asking for some clarification.

As far as the Yeti original, I've heard from a few different sources that it could be "Skunk Ape" - Florida's version of the Yeti.

I’ve been absent from this thread for pretty obvious reasons, when/why did Yeti discussion for this year start up? I remember watching videos of the last yeti house and remember being jealous I couldn’t experience it.

Yeti discussion hasn’t really caught traction this year

This is what I am hoping it is. Bigfoot, Skunk Ape, Yeti 2, and Japanese Yetis were the four ideas passed to me. I haven't put much confidence in it because I can't get a whole lot of info. Especially when being told, "It's Yeti 2". Just sounds kinda.... out there.

Skunk Ape is ripe for a Sprung, but I keep hearing this Yeti house is in a Soundstage. Attack of the Swamp Yeti is basically Skunk Ape, so maybe we're finally getting a full-fledged house based on that concept.

Skunk ape vs Florida man house???? Legends truly will be colliding this year.

I’m skeptical, but that could certainly fill the “comedy house” void this year - and if the Japanese legends (a great idea I hope they use later) house isn’t coming, we have an unknown original lurking… and it’s a concept that MIGHT have been whisper-down-the-lane-d into Werewolf Bikers, which insiders believed was a thing earlier in the season…

If it is Skunk Ape, Sam n’ Max better show up.

If it truly is Skunk Ape, it's number 1 on my hype list.
