HHN 31: Universal Monsters: Legends Collide

I believe that’s supposed to be Anubis, the dog-like god of death in Egyptian religion.

It is. Hollywood confirmed at Midsummer's Panel Anubis “Werewolf” is in their house.

TBF, I don't pay too close of attention to what Hollywood does. Still looks sick as hell.

At least for Orlando's version, it doesn't sound like there'll be too much of Drac. Guessing for Orlando's, they're on the same team but then for Hollywood's is when their alliance falls apart lol.

Who ever gets the most “wins” in the house during the entire event should face against Frankenstein’s Monster later in the future.

I think it’s kinda funny that Anubis and the Amulet are key plot points in this house. This is EXACTLY the setup of the gangster/bandit murder scene in the Great Movie Ride (RIP)

“Halt, Nonbeliever! Disturb the treasure of the gods and you shall all pay with your lives!”



I wonder if they’ll make reference to the attraction in some snarky way. It would be great if, should there be a scene like this, the “high priest” turns around and it’s the Mummy, or maybe Anubis himself! It also introduces an interesting idea for a house finale, that someone touches the amulet and gets turned into a skeleton….

Wow that facade is so beautiful

 

[ultimateforce]

Wow what great set designs!

I saw employees arguing in the house.

Guests were cutting in line in the house, taking photos, and trying to go back stage.

I just wanted to leave!

1/5 - What the Hell is going on this year?

Oh LAWD no. It’s a good thing I wasn’t on that walkthrough. I cursed some dudes out for touching props throughout one of my Graveyard Games runs, I’d hate to think how I would have reacted seeing some of those antics.

 

[ultimateforce]

It was chaos I just wanted to leave and get away from the situation. I've been to HHN over 30 times since HHN 28 and I've never seen anything like that ever in a house.

 

[FaceBagman]

Oh I had a kid ahead of me taking video/photos and harassing actors in Bride last year as well. I reported him immediately to the first Team Member I passed and that Op followed him through the rest of the house, then pulled him aside after. Was really grateful for that assistance.

Lame behavior is something that’s unfortunately out there at almost every haunt I’ve ever been to. It ruins walkthroughs for sure, and I hope you’re able to get plenty more chances at this house as the season continues!

Sets in this house were great, it was super long, and had some great scares. This house seems to be dragged by a lot of people but I'm curious if this is an expectations issue (a la Marathon of Mayhem 2 vs 1) since there is an imbalance of monster appearances. If this was just called a mummy house idk if it would be getting the same backlash. But yeah, idk if people have just been getting bum runs so far or if its the crowd that memes over Dracula just being disappointed, but I loved this house!

Could not agree more. It's a great house getting hit hard by fans over the advertising (which is fair enough, but it's not worthy of being called a bad house because of it). I still saw a ton of Wolfman and 3 instances of Dracula, but it's obviously a Mummy house in the end. Hope it grows on people once the initial disappointment fades away.

 

[ultimateforce]

If they just called it a Mummy house it would have been a lot better received for sure.

 

[Disneyson1]

So, do the Legends actually “collide” in this house?

 

[ultimateforce]

One scene in particular in a very anticlimactic way.

 

[krazyhorrorkid]

Not a bad house, heard they were just picking and choosing which monsters to put in there between cast changes. Why do you gotta prioritize one monster, leave the remaining scares to another, and then completely exclude one?
Doesn’t make sense

More than a few people are reporting a lot of holes in this house both on employee preview and opening night. Can anyone else corroborate / give the scoop on what’s going on?

I feel like it must be some rough luck with either timing or casting? Or maybe things improved by the end of the night since I didn't go through until after midnight. I was reading lots of "the only dracula I saw was a dummy and not an actor" and "almost no wolfman", yet I saw 3 separate draculas, quite a few wolfmans, and a ton of mummies. It felt jam-packed during my run. Not sure what's up.

If you went later into the night, I’m guessing they got swings in there. Some of the reports I was hearing were from the first hour or two.
