HHN 29: Universal Monsters

[Legacy]

Wait...so we jumped the gun on assuming there was a last minute house change. Hoo boy, the twists just keep coming!

You jumped the gun on THIS announcement having to do with a potential issue with a house.

I never said the two were related.

And don't forget to look up...

What does this mean?

It means look up.

This is an obvious push from the higher ups. They want to see if building a world or area for the classic monsters is worth the money for FW.

Hey, I'll take UCM over Blumhouse as the "Shove-it-down-their-throats" house.

No... it's an obvious "Oh, this was successful in Hollywood and we have full rights over the property."

I wouldn't necessarily say that..

I am very excited to see how Orlando tackles them again. They have a lot to work with, and it should be fun to see what they incorporate from Hollywood. I am though curious, to see if they'll use the designs that Crash made last year as a stepping stone for Orlando.

Whats the official name for the maze? Or is it just universal monsters

Universal Monsters, as Hollywood called theirs last year.

 

[jseal777]

Monsters are universal!!

In case anyone was wondering, Murdy said that Slash is not working on the Orlando soundtrack and alluded that he didn’t know if Orlando is using the Crash designs.

i hope they reuse the "bed" scene from castle vampyr for this

So will this house have similar creature designs as HHN19 or will it be something different? I really enjoyed those houses!

Guessing that A&D for Orlando will be "inspired" by the Crash Mccreery designs, but they will make it more suited for the Orlando location in the terms of durability and quality of life.

Similar to how Stranger Things was handled for creature designs for Orlando.

Cyber Image says hello

Cyber Image says hello

Cyber Image says, “We need relevant merch to sell. Horror Makeup exits through here and Monsters merch is evergreen.”


Not every decision is a test. A lot of times, decisions are just logical.

This and looking at it from a marketing perspective, they want IP that draws people in. Recognizability is definitely a factor in the IP that they choose to bring to the event. Who doesn't know Frankenstein, Dracula, and the Wolfman? It practically sells itself, it's that easy to market to potential attendees.

Hoping to see some cool masks in the tribute store, hopefully Creatiure from the black lagoon

 

[hhnlover]

another thing i hope they do, is that they reuse the wolfman scene from the 2009 maze with the hunter shooting the wolfman. from what i heard, it was a perfect double scare.
