The Old HHN 30 Speculation Thread (2020)

[JawsVictim]

We haven’t had a straight up adaptation of John Carpenter's The Thing. I’ll once again voice my support for that house since it’s one of the best horror/sci fi flicks and checks off the classic IP box.

It, The Thing, and Jordan Peele’s Candyman would make a well rounded IP line up.

Oh my word, 32 pages already? I'll catch up with you guys in a month.

You're not missing much. Twenty-eight of those pages is just Legacy pleading for a Count von Count house.

Saw Doctor Sleep last night, and rights issues aside, I can't see it happening for any event, even HMH. Like Flanagan's Haunting of Hill House, it is a very character driven movie. I do admit that it genuinely got me a couple of times and it's a far better movie than IT Chapter Two.

Ok y’all remember this is for actual speculation on HHN30. Wish list items and such has its own thread. We will start clamping down on this way more as we’re done with the first week after the event.

If it’s a “I want to see this” put it here:

Please don't hurt me Joe

Don't mind me, just waiting for a stupidly early spec map.

I'll throw my hat into the "I have a hard time not seeing Jordan Peele's Candyman happening" ring. Also if they do a lagoon show, I could for sure see it as obviously like a 30 Years of Fear theme or something along those lines. All fairly safe to speculate I say.

I could easily see the lagoon show being where they throw a bone to the icon fans.

The only consistent rumor I’m hearing is 2 or 3 IPs. What the IPs could be is still too scattered to share.

I have a better sense of what’s not coming.

After all of the spec last year, I'm sort of hoping Pumpkinhead does actually make an appearance...

Well, it appears I misinterpreted what this thread was for...Sorry for derailing it a bit

Nothing I’m hearing is that obscure.

Please don't take it personally. We're just being a bit more anal and strict with the speculation this year.

Honestly if there’s only gonna be 2-3 IPs that means they’ll all be heavy hitters. However I think something like the Classic Monsters, while they might not show up in house form, will likely be in the park as either a zone or part of a mashup.

candyman is highly likely one
so we really just have to speculate on two, what are the biggest ips they still havent done?

IT and The Conjuring 1+2+3, I guess.

 

[Horror Lover]

IT and The Conjuring 1+2+3, I guess.

I would think we'd get one of those while saving the other for a future year to stretch out the IP well.. I could easily see IT next year while saving The Conjuring..

 

[Lucky Planet]

candyman and IT, yeah, pretty epic year
