Halloween Horror Nights 29 General Discussion

Teddy’s guinea pig dies in the episode. Pet Semetary could be in play but doubt that’s it.

What season and episode number is it?

 

[NuteGunrayWasFramed]

The three aspects that keep sticking out at me are 1). Francis the Guinea Pig 2). Hell Hunt 3). A whodunit/ trapped scenario with Teddy (as mentioned before.)

Funny, somehow I came up with Creature from the black lagoon yesterday myself.

Its been mentioned among UCM which had been mentioned a lot, but Dracula, Wolfman and Mummy have stolen the convo. Had an attraction in Hollywood...

Would have a similar vibe to Dead Waters one could imagine...

Robot Chicken is not like the others...

So the clue is not pointing at a reference to an IP contained within the Johnny Bananas episode?

Are we looking in the right place at least? Robot Chicken is the right track?

My wife and I watch these shows all the time. So gags, themes, quotes, and additional context is already in my head. Typically, the only "research" I'm doing is confirming details to avoid ambiguity where I can.

That said - For the Bob's Burgers clue, I had to use a gif from this specific episode. And for additional context, this isn't their only Halloween episode.

season 8

 

[Spaulding]

Not like the others because it's stop motion and the others have all been cartoons.

So maybe we are looking for a property that is made with, or at least utilised, stop motion

Coraline?

 

[Spaulding]

Coraline?

The only well known one that comes to mind

 

[kingmantis]

Looks like we're finally gonna the get Monkeybone house I've always dreamed of.

 

[Robert Bliss]

If the Bananas show we should be looking at is American Dad, Scott Grimes is on that show and was in at least the first couple of Critters movies. I'm at a disadvantage on these clues. I have pretty much just seen all of Clerks and Futurama and maybe an episode or two of the others.

 

[Oakley]

I know a few other properties have used stop motion techniques in order to achieve certain effects. Said movies are escaping my mind currently, but I know movies did exist where they used this as a method.

I wouldn't be sad if it was a Coraline house, though...I actually would love it. The Other Mother is a bit scary at times so she would be really fun to see in person. Though, I don't think that Coraline is the answer.

The only well known one that comes to mind

Beetlejuice, The Thing, The Evil Dead(s), King Kong, etc., etc., etc. all use stop motion.

 

[Robert Bliss]

Going down the Robot Chicken path, the episode also had someone as Richard B. Riddick, so maybe Pitch Black?

 

[Spaulding]

Beetlejuice, The Thing, The Evil Dead(s), King Kong, etc., etc., etc. all use stop motion.

Right, sorry, I was focusing on films made entirely with stop motion. Of course, ther are many made using it mixed with live action

 

[NuteGunrayWasFramed]

Beetlejuice, The Thing, The Evil Dead(s), King Kong, etc., etc., etc. all use stop motion.

Or or or...The Gate and Puppet Master.

 

[DannyPowers]

There's also this guy, but he's probably too obscure.
