RIP AHS Heartbreaking.
I'm still blown away by the fact that they are actually doing HoB AGAIN. It was alright (at best) the first time but by no means did it warrant another go-around. What in the world made Murdy, not only, want to do this again but also, want to do this over AHS: Asylum; a maze he has been talking/hinting about for a while now. For me, this is a new low for Murdy. Heck, even if it wasn't AHS but instead an original maze, I wouldn't be as upset as I am about HoB returning.
If he can't use AHS, he could very easily do an original house and not recycle a poorly-received concept. But no, that's too creative for Murdy.I'm still blown away by the fact that they are actually doing HoB AGAIN.

Murdy right now:Honestly. I'm just going to play the denial card on this and just pretend that they got lazy with the facade design, needed a movie theatre, and decided just to recycle last year's Blumhouse Theatre facade...
I CAN'T WAIT FOR "SILVER SCREAMS: WEST COAST EDITION"!!! :exclap::exclap::exclap:
Our (forum fanboys) opinions matter very little to the people who run the event as we are a small majority. Most of us weren’t huge on Blumhouse (personally it was in my bottom 2 of last year) but in talking with John on twitter and in person he’s said that HOB last year was the second highest rated maze. GP ate it up so they’re giving it another go with different properties and in a bigger locationI'm still blown away by the fact that they are actually doing HoB AGAIN.

I suppose we should wait until we know what properties are included before we panic. If they manage to reuse Purge, Insidious, Sinister, or Happy Death Day, then yeah, this isn't great. (Granted, there aren't a whole lot of options beyond Truth or Dare and *maybe* Get Out...)

Blumhouse's success was, IMO, a product of low expectations (leading to pleasant surprise) and superior construction/scenic relative to almost every other maze (sans perhaps Titans and AHS). The extended length probably didn't hurt, either.
The cast of Blumhouse is honestly what made it the best maze of last year (especially Purge & Sinister). But it was a very popular maze, there were nights when Blumhouse would have one of (if not) the longest waittimes. It did beat out Insidious for popularity with guests for 3 weeks straight (which makes Insidious getting HOTY total BS)I feel like he is always saying that some of the worst mazes are actually the highest rated ones. Is there somewhere we can see this backed up? Or are we just going by his say-so? I really am interested in knowing.

I'm sticking with the windmill for the facade for now... could just be a crumbled castle turret but eh.. we'll see
