1. Body Collectors: Recollections - I keep hearing over and over that this house is A&D's favorite, so if the creators themselves are hyped for this house, I see no reason why we shouldn't be hyped for this too. Not to mention both the Body Collectors and Psychoscarepy franchises have been pretty solid, and thanks to Winter's Night I'm all for a cold/winter house as well.
2. Asylum in Wonderland 3D - What's this? A 3D house up high in anticipation?! There's multiple reasons for this, I love twisted fairy tales/literature so Alice in Wonderland is right up my alley. Also, Alice in Wonderland is a perfect theme for a 3D house. There's wonderful potential for trippy imagery and if they incorperate the blacklight strobe effect a la' Dead Exposure for the Chesire Cat? HOLY SH!T. Finally, I have very fond memories back when Knott's Scary Farm did their own take called "Malice in Wunderland", so I'm getting a nice dose of nostaliga here for a 3D Alice.
3. Insidious - Man, I feel like my list is going to be quite different then others here. XD While the Insidious saga is a bit hit or miss for me, I fully acknowledge that this IP is truly made to be a house. Hollywood did a fantastic job with it years ago, and with this being in a sprung tent I feel Orlando can knock this out of the park. An' I'll call it right here that this is the Dark Horse IP for this year.
*4 & 5 are really close together, I'm constantly flip flopping the two back and forth for one reason or another.*
4. RUN: Blood, Sweat and Fears - I want to have this higher up on the list, but since it probably won't have the maze/ever changing maze elements which made RUN infamous, I unfortunately can't. However, with this being held in Hellgate Prison, this does have a chance of being a really intense, chaotic house.
5. Jack Presents: 25 Years of Monsters and Mayhem - Like with RUN, I want to have it higher up on the list. But for me Anniversary houses have always fallen under "Great idea on paper, not so great in excecution". Case in point, the Hallow'd Past from HHN 20. It was less a look through the years and more of a "Wasn't 08' great?" house.
Now there is potential for M&M with it being TWD Mega house sized, so hopefully that'll be enough space to have a great representation throughout the years an'-
Forsaken, Nightingales and HR Bloodengutz confirmed for this house
Ok, we've gone from "Wasn't 08' Great?" to "2011 was Heaven". (I won't lie, 2011 did have kick ass houses and characters (Bloodengutz for PREZ). Hopefully we have plenty of houses from other years to avoid the same pitfall Hallow'd Past fell into.)
6. Freddy vs Jason - I'm definitely happy they're were able to get this IP, especially knowing they wanted to do a scare zone back in 07' with them but ran into IP/contract issues with the characters unable to be seen together. Should definitely be a fun house.
7. An American Werewolf in London - This is another house I want higher on my list, after all this is one of my personal favorite films and Orlando knocked it out of the park. Because of that, this version and cast has some big shoes to fill. But other then that, I'm really happy it's returning. I gotta' wash out the bad taste of Hollywood's version and this'll help.
8. The Purge - It's gonna' be intruiging to see how this turns out due to the whole Scream debacle, this is a IP that could work as a house so it could turn out decent.
9. The Walking Dead: The Living and the Dead - It's the IP that just won't die, but I'm interested in seeing how they pull off the flooded store so there's that.
