Halloween Horror Nights '19 General Discussion

[Joey]

Maybe waiting on announcing it at Midsummer Scream and going in depth about it like how they did Holidayz.

Me think they would save Creepshow for the SDCC panel on July 19th at 5:45pm to announce it.

But which panel

 

[rageofthegods]

So if Creepshow is indeed coming to the event..the facade doesn't make any sense.

The house from the Prologue/Epilogue

Dang did I get here late.

This is a long shot, but...



……^ Jody Verill facade?

It's not wide enough to be that. Too linear.

But which panel

Creepshow will have a standalone panel at SDCC on July 19th at 5:45 PM, at Room 6BCF.

Greg Nicotero will be present, alongside other writers involved with the show.

Wouldn't explain the poles.

 

[Guygas]

There could be some other explanations too:
1. That location isnt creepshow
or
2. creepshow isnt coming at all

Or if it's the Shudder show..it could be a scene featured in the beginning of the first episode of the new series, or part of the series opening for the Shudder show.

If it wasn't happening, I'd somehow doubt that Nightmares would put it on their "Speculation Map" to throw people off, considering @Gambit's comments when there was seemingly concerns of putting up Ghostbusters or not.

There's nothing really recognizable with that facade and it looks like something we haven't really seen yet so I would be willing to think it's for the TV Show.

Well I got nothing then.

I'm surprisingly okay with the idea of a Creepshow maze based on the new maze, if only because Joe Hill, Joe Lansdale and Josh Malerman are talented writers and I love their novels. Still, I'm not gonna lie when I say the nostalgia factor won't be missed.

Oops wrong group

Creepshow has been on the rumor mill for so long, I have to believe it’s coming. I would guess maybe it’s a different maze. Maybe things have been switched around in the wake of Us (or whatever the mystery IP winds up being).

 

[Spookies n' Stuff]

The main thing that makes me think they would bring the original Creepshow rather than any other adaptation is that the original is really the only one anyone cares about. Creepshow had 2 sequels but they're never brought up, when people hear Creepshow they think the original, and having a maze based on the TV series before doing the original is just asking for confusion, because when people hear Creepshow, its unlikely a TV show that hasn't even aired yet will come to mind at all. Not to mention I don't think HHN has ever done a maze based on a TV series that hasn't aired yet that went well. Doing the Creepshow TV series alone without the original just seems like a really stupid choice in terms of marketing, especially with a franchise thats already as obscure as this, but thats just my two cents.

The first one is the best, but I dig Creepshow 2. It's stories don't lend well to a maze though.

"Thanks for the ride, lady!"

That being said I agree with your point here 100%.

 

[chris.g]

Murdy has built out of the box facades for mazes in the past too... maybe this is just another case of that.

 

[Freak]

Murdy has based a maze in a reboot TV series before, coincidentally in the same venue: From Dusk Till Dawn. That one got a pass because it’s so close to the source material. Doing a maze in the new Creepshow would be pointless, disappointing, and confusing to everybody who’s seen the original.

 

[HHNManics]

Still seems odd for something like this not to be the facade.

Looks like the sides of the “facade” still have to be attached, so it’s not gonna be as thin as we saw in the previous photo

Is this referencing an old From Dusk til Dawn maze? Why is FDtD not ringing any bells for me?

Most people refer to the location as the FDTD Tent because From Dusk Till Dawn was the first maze there

Go to the Sox photo

Go to the Sox photo

Not sure what we're supposed to be seeing. Doesn't look like there's a terror tram this year, so it just looks like prop storage.

The fourth image though, with all the branches, that one looks like the FDTD tent. They almost look like blossoms, not like all the green that was in Jody Verrill. Any idea what that is?
