So what house are we betting butter beers on for tomorrow?

 

[MrTorrance]

Butterbeer relatively cheap, so, even though there will be hate, I'll go with..........Ghostbusters!

Isn’t Murdy’s post the same phrase that Orlando used before announcing Scary Tales last year?

John has been using that phrase every year since 2016. It has no connection to the actual maze announced, just his way of saying “something is coming”

I guess this means Pizza Fries are coming back this year.

I'm getting nervous that some of these rumors of last minute house changes have to do with Budget Cuts..

You can toss that worry out the window, while we don't know the exact situation of what happened last week, Budget Cuts is not one of the reasons. Throughout HHN's history, I honestly can't recall a year where there was a complete change of a house -because- of budget cuts.

Generally, unexcepted changes to a house have happened due to...
- Higher-ups forcing some synergy for them to do a house. (This happened in the infamous year of 2012 where they had to do Silent Hill. That ended up replacing their planned AWiL house, and it happened at such a late stage that Silent Hill's layout was pretty much the same as AWiL's.)

- A sudden loss of the venue to hold the house. (Once again, this happened in 2012. A South American/Chupacabra house was supposed to go in the old Murder She-Wrote soundstage, however a combination of asbestos -and- the SS getting torn down to build Transformers happened. So the house was actually scrapped as the last minute House of Horrors was created in the parade building.)

- Uni losing the rights to use the IP in one way or another. (There's a couple instances where this happened, but one of the more infamous cases was with Scream back in 2015. Uni wanted to do the films, the owners of Scream wanted the MTV tv show. Uni was pretty gung ho on doing the movies, so they were pretty far in construction before the owners pulled the plug. Leading them to makeshift a Purge house instead which had a ton of sets and props clearly in mind for Scream. (Kitchen with jiffy pop everywhere, Drew Barrymore's character hung and gutted, the movie theater from Scream 2 etc.)

Whatever happened last week may have been the third option, especially if it was Creepshow.

I'll stick with classic monsters for tomorrow, though I am leaning total postponement. heh heh

 

[Living Dead Dude]

I think Im getting on the ghost busters announcement but totally hoping for a awesome surprise IP for both coasts!

I've never quite understood why they weren't initially planning a house in the parade building that year.

I guess I’ll hop on the Ghostbusters train too then.

 

[hhnlover]

me realizing ghostbusters might actually happen

Sticking with Corpses.

Sticking with Corpses.

this is most likely a shared I.P . and remember, hollywood did corpses 2 times already.

HHN legacy on YouTube seems to think it will be monsters but I’m not sure how much inside knowledge he actually has

As I have said before, I am not too versed in HHN, but I did have a random tip come across my desk. Something about an old, red sports car being delivered to the Parade Building when the HHN buildout started. Not exactly sure what that would be relevant to, but this may be news to you all. :shrug:

So I’m guessing you work with Universal.

Parade building is rumored to be monsters correct?
