In-Between was a perfect storm of never-before-attempted scenes (Infinity Room, Wall-crawl), narrative simplicity, and a cast that understood the assignment and executed it with intensity. Chromadepth houses are not traditional. Scares in them require a lot more patience but also a lot more over-performance to make things obvious. That cast just figured it out in a way most other cast can’t.
(Fans tend to forget when they ask for houses to come back, the cast of a house is more important to a house’s success than the design).
Regarding the Monsters, the parks have to get approval to use the Monsters for a couple of reasons. One is unity of presentation - Universal, as a company, doesn’t want the parks presenting “classic” if a new, reimagined version is getting announced. Another reason is to ensure what the parks present is fully inline with Universal’s own imaging requirements for rights usage. Pictures “own” the films, so they have final legal authority on how the characters can and cannot be presented.
Legacy pretty much beat me to the punch on the In-Between being a perfect storm of a house. Especially considering Afterlife: Death's Vengeance used several effects and costumes from I-B, and yet it didn't land the same way it did for I-B. (You could also add that Afterlife's narrative was...not as simple as the In-Between.)

The Weeknd house I could see being modeled after a club with the music playing obviously and then the characters and imagery from the videos. The Dawn FM Experience on Prime has that type of environment that could translate to an opening room

I sadly had to miss last year's event, so I mostly avoided the spec thread - but there's a chance we might be down this year. Good to be back pals.
I have to imagine we'll at least get dates soon, right?

No, it's chocolate covered raisin day.
What's the over under on getting an announcement this week or next ya'll think? With Mardi Gras coming to the end this week in the park the only next big event for them to my knowledge (and that is very limited when it comes to Universal for now) is HHN so it should be full steam ahead now.
Edit. It just came to my attention I was off by a whole month when Mardi Gras is in the parks.

Saw a video on twitter that a tent has appeared in Fast and Furious. Best use of space for that attraction yet.
Based on what you can see in the video, It looks like the tent is behind the Ghirardellii facadeSaw a video on twitter that a tent has appeared in Fast and Furious. Best use of space for that attraction yet.

Hard to tell, but kinda looks smaller than the MIB tent.

Thanks for sharing, lol! I'm pretty sure that the tent goes a little farther back. If you look on google maps, it seems like there is a decent amount of room!
Ah, I'm so glad we've finally gotten the first Speculation Map.
Now we can move on to the "Are we getting an announcement this week?" phase.

Even better, we will no longer get the "Is FNaF or Squid Games happening?" posts.

Can someone familiar with that queue do an overlay on Google maps so we can see where the tent is situated?

Some clarification from him on the exact spot.
So I think Coolbert's theory is somewhat right. The tent will act as the facade and first scene(s) of the house, with the rest of it being in the actual indoor queue.
