I think I’m ready for a year with lots of gore, lots of fire, lots of heavy metal, and the return of Jack.

Oh hell yeah.THE RETURN OF DEMON CANTINA!! :rock:
The huge wrestling fan in me would enjoy this concept. But knowing how clingy Vince is with his IPs, I would have a hard time seeing this happen. Comcast/Universal does own the USA Network, which airs RAW and NXT, but they also have a huge deal with Fox which we all know is Disney-owned now. I just don't see something like this officially working as an IPJust shooting at the hip here: assuming the concept is still in use this time next year, what would you say to a house based on WWE's Firefly Fun House? I'm imagining a house that begins very bright and comfy, but quickly descends into creepy/off-putting, and by the end, Bray Wyatt, the charming kids' show host has turned into The Fiend, and we just have a bunch of scenes of him laying into other, real-world wrestlers left and right. Maybe find a way to incorporate Matt Hardy and co.?
...can't be any worse than Hollywood's Undertaker house.
Not so fast. Disney owns 21st Century Fox, which covers Fox's film and television production divisions, and the IPs they've spawned over the years, but not the Fox network or Fox Sports, as owning both Fox and ABC would violate an FCC rule prohibiting mergers between top networks along the lines of those, NBC, et al., and the Justice Department felt Disney owning both ESPN and the latter would give them too much of a grip on cable sports. As such, those assets, plus Fox News and Fox Television Stations, spun off into a new company this past March.but they also have a huge deal with Fox which we all know is Disney-owned now.
That's true. I forgot they changed the ownerships around for Fox. But I can't imagine it wouldn't still ruffle some feathers over there.Not so fast.

What I'm saying is, Fox doesn't enter into the argument as far as WWE goes, and relations between Comcast and WWE are still well-maintained, so if either party wants a Firefly Fun House haunt for next year, it should just be a matter of a few phone calls.
Couldn’t Universal just negotiate a deal with Disney to use some of their horror IPs for HHN?
Really because I recalled that they negotiate a deal with trading Oswald, and Al Michaels.ive heard disney dislikes uni so much they would never ever play ball lol.

Plus we don’t know if Disney would make a Halloween event for teens, and adults using their horror IPs.

Well Disney hasn’t done their own version of HHN with their horror IPs for a older audience yet.Disney doesn't want people going to HHN, because if a person goes to USF for a night, they aren't visiting one of their parks. Sure, they appeal to completely different demographics, but there's still a lot of crossover amongst the audiences. And with how many kids have gone to HHN in recent years, Disney has even less incentive to help Universal market their event.
they are always competing and disney wont ever wanna help universalWell Disney hasn’t done their own version of HHN with their horror IPs for a older audience yet.

And yes, as I said Comcast/Universal do have a healthy relationship, hence the reupping the deal with RAW, NXT, and the USA network. I'm saying while it should theoretically be an easy deal to make, VKM doesn't tend to let properties he owns get licensed out in a manner like this would require, and right now WWE owns everything Fiend-related. Vinny Mac likes everything to be completely in his control with final say at the very least. That being said, if Bray were to acquire the rights to his character....
