It implies nobody’s updating Slash.Doesn’t this imply HHN is still happening this year?
Could it be Halloween 2018 with a sneak peak of Halloween kills kinda like saw having the one trap from jigsaw?Hearing from a more reliable end that Halloween Kills is indeed the Waterworld maze

Oh man if y’all somehow did get halloween kills I would book a flight immediately! Here’s hoping maybe next year we could see it!Assuming we do get an event this year, the facade doesn't really fit any location in 18, either. Logically, that maze would start in the gas station or maaaaaaaybe Smith's Grove, but that isn't a gas station and Smith's Grove was shot in these two locations, neither of which fit. It doesn't really fit Smith's Grove Sanitarium from the Rob Zombie movies either, it's missing the projected ledge under the second-story windows. The only known shooting location from H:K is the CFCC Burns Building in Wilmington, which was turned into the Haddonfield Memorial Hospital. Doesn't really fit that either, the facade looks too different and it's missing the garage.

Yup. Even if the event miraculously doesn't gets cancelled, it's better safe than sorry. Also, it probably means double the payday. Paid for the work now and maybe for the rights usage later if they use it next year (if that's how it works, unless Uni owns the exclusive rights, but I doubt it since Figure owned his own stuff he made).
All things considered, that's the best way to look at it. All the work that has been done this year has already been paid for, including a lot of the stuff in the future. The only thing that hasn't been paid for is the actual staff to make things run. I can't imagine Uni will throw everything away, so anything that doesn't get used this year, will most likely be used next year. As for the rights to properties, that might be tricky, but I ASSUME there is insurance for this kind of thing and exceptions in the event of cancellation. Unless it's a very prickly property, at the least, any maze that is already built will probably be repurposed (think Scream at HHNO turning into Purge).
Will they let the mazes sit dormant until Sept 2021? I'm not an expert on the subject, but these things aren't built to last all year round and through constant weather. Knotts often lets some of their mazes sit around, so I do think it's possible HHN can too. Maybe they'll be more proactive to store them in a location to keep them more safe though.

I've been thinking that for a while. If this year is a no-go (which I think it is), save as much as possible for next year. I'd suspect most of the rights would still be retainable under these highly unusual circumstances with a little negotiation. Even if they're not, just retweek it to be an original property.
And if it means they'd save all the time and development money, they'll find a place to store it.
Nothing was announced, so anything they'd put up next year will still be a surprise and new.
Well obviously. I didn’t know if it was something SPECIFIC, or new.uh yeah, we've been hinting at it for the past week or two.
Speculation aside, HHN is officially off folks. However, I am hearing good news in regards to IPs and that they may stick around next year.
This is true, also we should see more obvious indicators as soon as today if anything.Let's be clear, it is not officially off until Universal makes an announcement. However, the evidence and continued California regulatory rollbacks all point to the event's imminent cancellation. I think we should make peace with that.
I was gonna say it, but you found it by the end lmaoUnless Universal thinks parks won't be opening in the fall.
