Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count (HHN 32)

[ThemeParks4Life]

It was bound to happen sooner than later. Interested to see what they do with it since it'll be based off the series.

Man, Universal must REALLY be getting sick of all the "next announcement please" tweets.

Oh, who am I kidding? There will still be people asking for the next announcement tomorrow.

Sooo, you guys thought 2022 HHN was crowded....Wait till next year....Wooooh.....and, I guess there will be more heavy duty announcements in the future...Universal gets really really serious.

Given this is their flagship--kind of not shocked on this.

Given the Metaverse collab, Hot Topic's merch rollout, and the rumor of HHN Vegas; I think NBCU/C is finally aware of how large the HHN brand and what it can pull. Really excited to see how this affects other houses to come. As for Chucky--I wonder if they have the house ready to go in design.

What I mean by this is--Brad Douriff and Jennifer Tilly have surprisingly been featured in voiceover for the duration of HHN31/'22, with Chucky present on both the Hollywood Starway and Rip Ride Rockit; and Jennifer Tilly doing VO work for the Hollywood Starway.

Chucky and Tiff feel the given, but hoping this means Fiona also stepped in to play Nica for Voiceover. Would only make sense if they got the main three for it.

Needless to say, it was quite unusual to see this announcement yesterday. Does anyone have any insight as to like... why?

When I saw the post I thought it was a joke. Wow.

Well.. Happy spec season.

I will say - the only way I will like this house is if they use puppets. I have no desire to see 4.5 foot tall Chucky actors.

Yeah we're starting in August next year lol

Yeah we're starting in August next year lol

You think? I've been assuming September 1st, and then August in 2024.

This might be treading too far into spec, but anyone think this early of an announcement could indicate an increase in # of houses?

They probably saw it as a lock and a good way to generate hype. I’ve stopped asking why Universal announces things when they do. Lol

 

[RedRightDan]

I find it strange that they gave many people some free subs to Peacock, announced Chucky this year, yet Chucky S2 isn't releasing direct to stream until the season is finished.

I would assume they would try to avoid another Labor Day opening weekend.

RE: Chucky

1) This makes a ton of sense

2) I'm excited he gets his own house again

3) I'm glad he has a *reason* to appear on the merch next year other than "people love Chucky"

4) I hope the house doesn't have the spirit of the show because the show isn't very good

I love the wildcard nature of just tossing this out there

 

[Jakemeister]

When are Frequent Fear Passes going on sale? :bolt:

 

[RomanNikolas]

May be a bit early since construction hasn’t started yet (and also because it’s November 1st:grin, but does anyone have an idea as to the location?

This was honestly my first thought - I'm thinking F&F. Split the 2 seasons the same way they split Blumhouse.

 

[Crypt Keeper]

Kinda thought they would release the dates for next year alongside Chucky. I would expect the house to be in either a Sprung Tent or the F&F queue, but I really hope the Chucky masks don't look goofy lol.

Personally I love the show so disagree there. Everything else, agreed.

Funniest thing about this announcement is I was at Howl-O-Scream when they announced it and was like, “Why now?”

Howl-O-Scream was amazing again though. Incredibly small crowd. Which is not what we are gonna be able to say about HHN next year.

I hope there's no masks and they use puppets lol

Geez, it's November 1st and we were already expecting dates for next year? We have a long time to go for dates.

Isn't the play Labor Day weekend till the weekend before Halloween? Not a ton to speculate in that regard
