Halloween Horror Nights 31 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

[Blysthon]

I still don’t personally see ST coming to the event It just doesn’t make sense tbh

If we get an icon (I highly doubt we will), it’ll be The Pumpkin King or Lil’ Boo. But I’d see them being mascots more than “icons”.

Just give us a mini purchasable Lil' Boo and we'll (mostly) all be happy. Maybe make it one of those magnet shoulder things so we can carry him with us always.

Not sure how I'd feel about bugs being a cheesy 50's-style house. You can do some seriously creepy stuff if you made that a more serious house.

IDK man, if I saw one of these things from the Outer Limits jump out at me in the house as a blackout scare, I would crap my pants.

Since that account suddenly seems a bit more credible (assuming you find the speculation map credible), probably worth discussing the other scoops dropped. My comments in italics:
* Bugs a "1950s giant insect" house -- sounds like a lock to be this year's dark comedy house
* Underground creatures = mutants on a subway -- not a Terror Mines reimagining like I had hoped but has potential
* Wolfman v. Mummy includes Dracula -- possibly a London-set house? Mummy escapes museum to meet the local monsters?
* Zones all themed to traditional Halloween; in addition to Scarecrow redux, mutated trick-or-treaters in NYC and a witch zone




This is the same event that did Evil Dead and its pastiche Cabin in the Woods in the same year on the same street.

Bug house sounds like it's taking a lot of inspiration from 50's Giant Insect B movies, could be lots of fun. After watching Moon Knight, I kind of wish the Universal Monsters maze was solely focused on a Mummy reimagining that really emphasized Egyptian mythology and tombs that lead to the underworld. Kinda like Hades: The Gates of Ruin for Egyptian mythology.

Losing the hope for my beloved Evil Dead in exchange for another Blumhouse compilation is big sad :'(

But they're shooting for newer titles, I understand. Still think it has a likelihood of being a swing and a miss like 2018's though...

It’s Evil Dead or Halloween, not Evil Dead or Blum, fwiw

If you think about it Freaky leans into aztec Horror and comedy considering the dagger the movie revolves around with Sacrifice, switching bodies it would be kinda interesting ngl if it’s done right.

I think a serious giant insect house would cause genuine fear for a lot of guests, in that interesting grey area there between 'fun' terror and actual terror. I'd for sure skip the lights-on tour for that one.

If that's true about the zones all being Halloween-esque, that could be very interesting. Another excuse to have Jack-O-Lanterns in Central Park!

Reminds me of the subway in Dead Exposure. I'm up for more of that.

I think that house might be a sequel.

Wait a minute...

GASP!

Terror Underground 3?

You people need to calm down with "Seaside Village", there's no indication it's related to Dead Man....oh, nevermind.

Freaky also had some really great kills (wood shop, cryogenic freeze, mini golf course) that would translate well to a maze.

Assuming a good chunk of you are like me and just now hearing of Black Phone thanks to the map, here's the trailer. Releasing June 24th.

Honestly yeah, the more I thought about it the more I think this Blumhouse house could work a lot better than it’s predecessor.

Wait is that the guy from Moon Knight? /j

Honestly this looks pretty cool. it’ll be interesting to see how this correlates to a house. Freaky is definitely made to be a house, so i’m excited for those, not at the top of my anticipation. but definitely will be better than 2018’s blumhouse. hopefully it doesn’t get as much hate as it did

 

[Blysthon]

Also the score sounds very Aztec

Opening night that pumpkin tunnel was absolutely flooded hahah
