Halloween Horror Nights 21: Your Luck Has Run Out

[Victoria]

The best part is that it is open Halloween night. Good...Good...

They've always been open on the 31st.

 

[Brian G.]

Yeah, but because this year it falls on a Monday, I was unsure if they would have it open or not.

I just realized, this year's icon won't be The Dealer....it will be Luck (a dealer named Luck)

I'm calling this now, so I can say I told you so in a couple of months

Not liking the ticketing structure at all, great if you live in Orlando I guess, they really know how to devalue a ticket.

IDK. The icon could also be the spirit of the "House". Or both. both are being mentioned a lot so far.

 

[Brian G.]

What if, and this is just me speculating, the "House" refers to that long rumored "Extreme House"?

Perhaps but I think it's just normal casino reference. The house wins 98% of the time.

But it was capitalized.....a lil too much emphasis on a common saying. Again, just pure speculation.

That's why I think House will be some sort of entity that controls Luck. But that's just my initial gut feeling based on absolutely no fact.

House refers to the real theme this year: the growing home foreclosures due to the economy. Press your Luck and win your house back!

 

[Brian G.]

As far as the theme goes. do we:

Like it? Love it? Hate it? Want to see more before you make a decision?...

Do tell.

As of now, I LOVE it. I think it's got a ton of potential. I love the 30s vibe I'm getting from the music, and I think Luck/House/Whatever can be a great Icon(s).

Of course, they could mess it up somehow. But as of now, i'm high on the idea, and will probably make this my first HHN event.

 

[ralphoutloud]

I'm hoping we get a Boardwalk Empire type deal. Prohibition Atlantic City!

 

[Tbad556]

I love the theme so far.

Does anyone else think that there's a good possibility of Chance playing a role in this year's event?

I hope not. I really want to see a clean slate, and from everything they've said there won't be anyone returning.

 

[zbob1992]

Yeah after reading everything I definitely see the Icon being Luck and their domain being the House unless House is to be like Fear where they will be pulling all the strings for the next 20 years. But so far I love the theme and idea as it is very different from the usual horror fare and I am also a huge Fallout fan and the music really reminds me of Fallout.

 

[GrahamSHAZAM]

I'm iffy about the theme right now. A few months ago, if you were to ask me which event (Howl-O-Scream or Halloween Horror Nights) would be having a casino theme this year, I probably would have guessed Howl-O-Scream. It just doesn't feel like an HHN idea.

As for an icon, I imagine a Two-Face type of character. Someone who relies on chance and luck to do all those evil things icons love to do...

And then there's Chance. She does sorta fit. But before someone pounces on me for suggesting that, I know HHN XX was the end of an era and all that good stuff. It's just a thought.

 

[rooney08josh]

I'm loving the theme so far, although after being starved of info I always love the first peak we get of the theme , I think it could be perfect for the 21'st HHN and it's full of potential. Really looking forward to see where they go with it from here...

 

[JokerMan0925]

Is anyone else getting a 403 Error? (Forbidden)

 

[Vyrus]

I think the theme has a lot of potential, and some holes to it as well, you can only do a haunted casino house so many times, or a mobster house. I wonder other house ideas are out there?
