Halloween Horror Nights 30 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors (2021)

[ChaseTuff]

I’m really happy the Texas Chainsaw house is directly from the original movie. Have they ever done just the first movies house??…Also was kind of bummed about Bride announcement because I feel like it’s been done so much but it is always a treat to see all of the classic monsters represented at HHN I suppose.

The TCM back at 26 / 2016 was based on the original.

oh really??..I did that house once or twice if I remember correctly but I couldn’t remember if it was indeed the original movie…So are they basically doing the same house then??..

From the more I’ve read I feel like they were let down by 2016’s version of the house?..and they’re trying to give it another go?..

My birthday is on the 31st and I get my ticket every year for my gift to myself. Let's make it happen Universal.

Well, they're still not going to be allowed real chainsaws because closed environment. F&F = gift that keeps on giving

I respect what that film did to the slasher genre and how it paved the way for other low budget horror, but arguably, IMHO, it's a terrible film. Therefore, I had no expectations going into the 2016 house.

However, I was surprised at how good of a job they did. It smelled like BO, the scares were on point and the set design, as always, was accurate and transported me directly into the film. Based on reviews, it feels like many people had that positive reaction as well. Now that they have more vertical space, I'm intrigued to see how much bigger they go.

From the moment I stepped in that house, I felt like I was being hunted. When Bubba came at me with his hammer, I think I almost fell to the floor because I thought he was legit going to hit me. IDK, it was a completely unoriginal, rehashed concept but as someone who doesn't scare easily, it more than did the job.

Eh. I have different feelings on the TCM house from that year. I thought the scenes were way too long and we never got a perfect run. The Leatherfaces all also seemed tired and hardly moved. The kicker…having the set design folks repairing a window in the middle of our last walkthrough. 2016 TCM never connected for me.

Now HHNH’s TCM from 2016….the scariest house run I’ve ever had.

Uninformed but educated guest: determining how strong single-day ticket sales are to see what the pricing should be. Just a guess.

looks like it

I don't think they're doing the same house. It's in a soundstage now, so I'd expect to see it expanded.

happy early birthday

Gotta' say it was nice getting two houses announced, definitely felt like Orlando and Hollywood wanted to get their shared announcements out of the way to focus on their exclusives.

As for FFP's, I've got a feeling it won't be long before those are announced. If whatever is going in the Shrek theater is an IP, than I feel it'll be once or after that drops.

I'm expecting it next week, now that all the shared stuff is out.

If today was truly the last shared announcement. I wonder if that means no HK or Exorcist for Shrek.

• Creepshow
• Halloween III
• Halloween Kills
• Fear Street
• Spiral
• Silence of the Lambs
• Willy's Wonderland
• Exorcist (pls no)

One of these is *supposedly* what's in Shrek. Guessing it's Creepshow.

 

[jorgerr96]

27 was my first HHN so I am pretty excited about getting to see TCM.

• Halloween III
• Halloween Kills
• Fear Street
• Spiral
• Silence of the Lambs
• Willy's Wonderland
• Exorcist (pls no)

One of these is *supposedly* what's in Shrek. Guessing it's Creepshow.

YO IMAGINE IF IT'S WILLY'S WONDERLAND. I watched Willy's Wonderland a few months back and thought it was better than Banana Splits, I'd literally freak out if Willy's is the house in Shrek.

H3 is my guess

I know this was briefly discussed but I don’t think we landed on anything concrete. Does anyone know how the Exorcist came up as a possibility?

Because it's on the spec list for Hollywood, I think.

 

[kingcooger]

All the plausible guesses I can come up with for what's in Shrek:

• Creepshow
• Halloween III
• Halloween Kills
• Fear Street
• Spiral
• Silence of the Lambs
• Willy's Wonderland
• Exorcist (pls no)
• WILD CARD: It's an original

It's one of these.

• Creepshow
• Halloween III
• Halloween Kills
• Fear Street
• Spiral
• Silence of the Lambs
• Willy's Wonderland
• Exorcist (pls no)

One of these is *supposedly* what's in Shrek. Guessing it's Creepshow.

How do we know it is an IP?

The WILD CARD on that list was it being an Original and Ringwraith only said it was one of those.

Just playing devil's advocate, here as Ringwraith also said this:

The budget game, for the event as a whole, has significantly changed since Covid. There's never been more scrutiny.
