Is it a twist on the Angelina Jolie action flick?

Is it a twist on the Angelina Jolie action flick?

If that's the route ya'll want to go.

 

[jrn14]

is it Hide and Shriek? or is that fan fiction?

 

[ChaseTuff]

is it Hide and Shriek? or is that fan fiction?

Legacy has long stated that Hide And Shriek was never the name, back when it was first posted actually. If it was, we wouldn't be having the conversation.

 

[Spaulding]

Ignoring Hide & Shriek, and assuming the house is still called/connected to 'graveyard', in folklore salt is used to combat 'vengeful spirits'. Seems at least possible that this a house focused on ghosts/spirits and possibly include ghost hunters of some description.

However, Ghostbusters would make a house like that somewhat redundant this year.

America's largest cemetery is in Salt lake City, if anyone can make anything of that tenuous link!

 

[PenguinCowboy]

Salt.

Salt and Pepper.

Pepper's Ghost.

Ghosts in the Graveyard.

Ghosts in the Graveyard: Olly Olly Oxen-fear

 

[jrn14]

Salting the earth, or sowing with salt, is the ritual of spreading salt on conquered cities to symbolize a curse on their re-inhabitation. It originated as a symbolic practice in the ancient Near East and became a well-established folkloric motif in the Middle Ages.


Is this heading in the wrong direction?

So does anyone think there might be an announcement today?

There may be, there may also not be one. We kinda just have to roll with it. Even if we "think" there may be one, sometimes they just don't happen. Just go with the flow, no need to ask constantly about when the next announcement is.

 

[Spaulding]

So does anyone think there might be an announcement today?

I don't think anyone can answer that until the announcement happens.

Even Legacy said he didn't see the Yeti announcement coming.

There might be one today. There might be one tomorrow, or Thursday, or Friday. Probably won't be one on Saturday or Sunday. That covers the next 5 days.

Graveyard: Hmm...Needs Salt.

Also constantly asking for an announcement will not make one magically happen. It happens when it happens.

 

[Imperius]

Think it’s best people stop asking if anyone thinks there will be announcement.

 

[SeanPhilly]

I asked this last year, but any spec for them using the water/light show during HHN hours this year? Would be awesome to see some horror flicks playing over the water.

 

[Darko]

I am going to assume Academy of Villains is back as the sole show again this year?

There was a Beetlejuice rumor that was flying around, though that seemed to be more possibly for Hollywood and well...that didn't happen. So I'm assuming so at this point.

You know what happens when you assume!

 

[Darko]

I am seriously pretty excited about this year. I was originally pretty skeptical on a Ghostbusters house, but after a lot of thinking and of course Poltergeist last year, I think it could be fantastic.

Also maybe a part of me just really hopes they play the Ghostbusters theme at the house facade as you go in.

Also for some reason I can't get out of my head this image of the theme playing while we are outside the gate waiting to get in, and everyone at once says, "Ghostbusters" when that part of the song comes up. It won't happen...but I really want it too.

What about Graveyard: Supernatural

 

[Darko]

Graveyard: Eat & Sleep

Graveyard: Stay & Scream

Graveyard:...What Is It, Boy? Little Timmy's stuck in a well!?

I'm good now. Anyway this house does intrigue me though. It seemed to be more worth keeping than the house the Tooth Fairy was to be in. Makes me wonder what they have up their sleeve with this one. I mean the Tooth Fairy house sounded much more like a "safe" house if what Legacy said is true. So I am guessing this one is quite "different" I presume?
