Halloween Horror Nights 29 General Discussion

How likely is Ghostbusters, actually?

Insiders in hollywoods forums hinted at it

 

[Legacy]

So I’m guessing this is Orlando’s answer to Hollywood’s Suspiria in terms of pretty cult property?

Also, this and HotC in the same yearO: Must be a cult classic theme or they’re banking on ST2 to bring in the crowds like last year

I'm speculating on it, but it "feels" right. I could be wrong though.

That said, remember how last year's "eighties theme" wasn't actually just a nice idea that fans stuck to event so they could say it was a theme?

Don't expect a theme.

Don't expect a theme.

I do wish they went further with that. The TV should've been the marketing icon last year instead of the pumpkins, for example. Also would've been better to play music that was actually from the early '80s outside DE2, as catchy as the techno music was.

Anyways, I would argue that if the Bigfoot rumors are true, you could definitely stick a "cult classic theme" on this year even if it's not intentional.

I would prefer Ghostbusters doesn't happen, but if it does, then as someone mentioned previously, entering the queue by the NY library would be really cool.

Pumpkinhead? Hmmm...just looking at the look of the monster, it kinda reminds me of the stilted Beasts from Poltergeist last year.

 

[CoopF22]

I've never heard of this movie but am excited after reading up on it and watching a few clips.

 

[Darko]

I love Pumpkinhead, I am so excited if this comes.

 

[NuteGunrayWasFramed]

The fact that nearly sixty movies were named BEFORE the answer is just astounding to me.

What code name matches up with Pumpkinhead? Pit?

pits an original. chicken, dog, hysteria, pressure, and drill are ips.

If Hysteria is Ghostbusters, I'm going to guess Dog is KKfOS and ST was Pressure. Maybe Pumpkinhead is Drill?

Chicken is likely HoTC.

We think.

Chicken is likely HoTC.

Pressure is a tent, so there's almost no way Stranger Things would go in there. More likely is Ghostbusters, Klowns, or both just aren't showing up this year.

More likely is Ghostbusters, Klowns, or both just aren't showing up this year.

Or one of, or both, just aren't houses.

To be fair, the main GIF that was given to go off of was “weird things happening on Halloween”. That’s just bait for a million different guesses.

I mean, the movie is called PUMPKINhead, I'm a little shocked myself that no one even randomly threw it out.

It would make zero sense for KK to be a street again, except maybe they want to make it bigger this year?

Ghostbusters as a street would be interesting. If it's not a house, then Hysteria was clearly ST.

I mean the movie has literally nothing to do with Halloween and very little to do with actual pumpkins.

Quotes aren’t everything. I believe @Legacy even said don’t focus on the quote.

 

[Imperius]

The old Ghostbusters show is coming back.

 

[Tobias]

Oooh, Pumpkinhead! I'm down for a wicked creature house.

As for codenames, hmmm.

Hysteria - ST 2&3
Wasn't it pretty well established that this is ST due to the reaction of the 1st one last year?

Dog - Pumpkinhead.
I was thinking this was Ghostbusters, but Pumpkinhead does have a dog named Gypsy in it. An honestly I don't know how Pumpkinhead would fit with the other codenames.

Pressure - Ghostbusters
While I thought this is more suited for KKfOS due to the sheer pressure of getting it right, I'm getting the vibe that the chances of this being a house are dropping. An the next biggest rumored property besides ST is GB.

Chicken - HoTC
The connection is pretty easy with Captain Spaulding's fried chicken.

So the last possible IP codename is Drill, whatever could that be? Now if KKfOS is actually happening -and- all the above houses are confirmed...I'm at a little loss which one fit's this codename.
