Halloween Horror Nights 29 General Discussion

What's with the crappy one-piece, rigid, plastic masks?

I was really excited for this house but the costumes in the video look HORRIBLE! The solid unmovable masks, at least.

Did people love that?

Now I'm worried about this house...

Someone talk me off the ledge...
The house was a last second design and build after Transformers replaced Bldg 44. They developed the whole house from scratch in about 4 months. It actually wasn’t even complete opening weekend.

The masks were both a cost-saving measure and an effect-based decision. The whole house was in black and white, and used a good amount of strobe to mimic old film projection (while hiding its cheapness).

Universal Monsters is going to be a completely different animal.
 
If they're following a similar schedule as last year, I would say it will either be Klowns (assuming it's coming), or some details on the scarezones/show(s).
 
here's a speculation map on hnn (note probably won't work because im on a school filter).

Does the place that posted that image have a good track record for this sort of thing? I saw their speculated map from last year and they guessed a few of the houses at the very least.

Yes, because they take the “spec” part of the spec map from the forums (and I’m sure one of the higher ups at Nightmares probably has their sources) which means they’re always on tune with them.
