Piggybacking off of my original idea, I thought I'd pick my optimal house lineup for a fictional best-of HHN event (featuring 100% replicas of houses that I've experienced.) Using only 10 of the unique locations the originals appeared in, here's what my best-of HHN would look like:

1. Body Collectors: Collections of the Past (originally appeared at HHN 18) - Soundstage 20
2. Jack Presents: 25 Years of Monsters & Mayhem (originally appeared at HHN 25) - Soundstage 21
3. An American Werewolf in London (originally appeared at HHN 23) - Soundstage 22
4. Castle Vampyr (originally appeared at HHN 14) - Soundstage 23A
5. A Nightmare on Elm Street: Dreamwalkers (originally appeared at HHN 17) - Soundstage 23B
6. Poltergeist (originally appeared at HHN 28) - Soundstage 25
7. Friday the 13th: Camp Blood (originally appeared at HHN 17) - JAWS overflow queue
8. Halloween (originally appeared at HHN 24) - Sprung Tent 2
9. The Thing: Assimilation (originally appeared at HHN 17) - Sprung Tent 1
10. Scary Tales 3: Once Upon a Nightmare (originally appeared at HHN 18) - Original Parade Building B79

I realize the queue setup and flow for the sound stage houses would be a nightmare, but c'est la vie. I don't think I'd ever want to leave the park if this was an actual house lineup.

Honorable mentions that just missed the cut: Dracula: Legacy of Blood (HHN 19 / SS23B); Dead Exposure (HHN 18 / Sprung Tent 2); Universal Classic Monsters (HHN 29 / New Parade B108S);

Wouldn’t Dreamwalkers be with BC2 and not CV? I know it was in 23 but CV got the whole soundstage.

Can we just have this lineup year-round and call it even? I’d take it.

Anyways. Will update as I’m able to think about it. Going by the venues generally used for houses now. Potentially unpopular opinions ahead...

Sprung 1–Nightingales: Blood Pit

Parade building 79–Scary Tales: Once Upon A Nightmare

Parade building 108–Seeds of Extinction

MIB tent—Horrors of Blumhouse v1

Shrek—Killer Klowns From Outer Space

********
Side note, I really wish there was a “dream house lineup” thread. Too similar to the wishlist thread, but not similar enough for that specific topic to appear there...:/
