Halloween Horror Nights 29 General Discussion

[Living Dead Dude]

It just tastes so damn good

Edit- Someone else who went said they’re sworn to secrecy until Thursday. Hopefully it’ll be a 2 for 1 announcement

How did that make you think Ho1C? Am I missing something?

 

[captainryborg]

I

i know that but the uk event that’ universal Orlando was at

It's the annual HHN preview to media in the UK...

Asked whether or not the "secret till Thursday" announcement wad coming to both coasts...

I’m a bit confused about the alleged house locations. If Stranger Things is in sound stage 25, like Poltergeist last year, why is it in the letter B spot? That is sound stage 24A, right?

IDK. 25 is still accessible from that path, though.

Anyways, just watched Us. Very good movie, and a breath of fresh air amidst this movie hellscape of remakes and sequels. However, I completely understand why Ringwraith has low expectations for the house.

Spoiler

Given that The Purge at 25 was a replacement as well as about something happening nationwide, I'm thinking they do the same thing here. If the house is good it will be entirely because the cast will have succeeded at recreating the eerie silence of the Tethered--the scene in which the Tethered daughter climbs over the roof of the car as they drive comes to mind.

It has to be Klowns or Corpses then. They wouldn’t announce a big IP at an Orlando only event, and the % on Hollywood makes me think it could be shared which wouldn’t fit an original. Either way Thursday should be interesting

Does anyone know if the Simpsons Ride will be open during the event this year? I know that at one point last year, it was open and operating.

At this point no clue.

It’s not listed on the spec. map under Attractions, so it looks like not at first or at all.(if the map is correct)

6 attraction spaces on the website and same 6 from last year on the spec map, i'd gather it would be the same.

I'd love to see a curve ball attraction open like ET, it's unexpected and fits the theme. Plus it would be good to take some crowd consider how busy this year is going to be.

Probably not except on super heavy days

I would love to see E.T. during HHN; however, doesn’t the parade building house’s line go through E.T.’s queue/ extended queue?

Honestly i just want minions open...
That ride is available and would help crowds

I'm surprised that that ride is open during the day.

I don't want to say never but..... As long as there is a scare zone at the entrance, and with the congestion at the front of the park, it won't happen.

It also was open, back in 2015 or so! It was running nearly empty cycles. Opening more rides to absorb crowds sounds nice, but it doesn't do anything if no one is interested in riding.

The kid rides just don't draw a crowd. I remember when every house was 100 minutes or more, Kang & Kodos was still a half-empty walk-on. No point paying to run them for a couple dozen people an hour.

 

[Legacy]

Never mind the fact that most people don't attend HHN to ride the rides.

Oh I so don’t think it’s going to happen but it’s just a nice thought.

No they don’t and it wouldn’t eat up the die hard fans but it could the first timers solely coming for ST and GB etc

I would say there is a "decent' percentage of folks who are 50/50 interested in the rides vs. houses. Not most but a good amount who wanted to "ride a couple rides and hit a couple houses" I don't know how big this percentage is but I've heard this attitude floated around.
