For what it's worth, this is the MiB tent (in orange) set against the location of this new tent. It looks like the new tent is about 2/3 the size of the MiB tent, but that's a really rough estimate
I wonder if they are going to tie the SF scarezone into the house in someway since no matter how you go in you'll be dumped into the scarezone afterFor what it's worth, this is the MiB tent (in orange) set against the location of this new tent.

I honestly think they might announce The Weeknd first considering he did 2 twitter posts. Dates most likely will follow, and fear street might be a second announcement. That's my guess at least
NGL the overflow line could possibly be the street next to the soundstages, I mean it's probably the weekend that is gonna be in that house, so the line might be insane a lot of nights

From an advertising perspective Gremlins or Scream would be the best to announce first since they would be the biggest GP draws and a prime part of the overall ad campaign for the event like how they started out with Beetlejuice/Ghostbusters/Stranger Things prior years. Of course whether or not those houses are happening is still entirely up in the air so sitting on those is also a decent move to keep the die hards engaged throughout the announcement process wondering if/when they might get announced and if “this will be the one”. If we look at it from both angles (as in “what’s the house that will probably get the biggest overall attention that the die hards already pretty much know about”) then I’d probably say Fear Street should/will be first. That said announcing The Weeknd first also has some merit to it since it would at the very least get people talking about whether or not it should even be there which at that point “all press is good press.”

People are still confident Gremlins or Scream is happening?

Happy Purge night! (First movie actually takes place tonight!)
The Weeknd would be the first. His music way more popular than Scream or Gremlins combined... or just about any IP used before.

While true I don’t think they want a super polarizing drop first. If you expect it to get some backlash which it will, you don’t drop it first IMO. If you get a bunch of people yelling on twitter he’s not horror and HHN is going soft for your first drop then you’re gonna have a bad time.

Has something happened over the past few days that makes those two properties seem unlikely now? Genuinely asking cause last time I was fully attentive to the speculation it seemed pretty certain that either Halloween, Last of Us, or both weren’t happening and that Grenlins and/or Scream were the “favorites” as the true houses.
Y’all wondering where the Supercharged house and queue would go. I’m sitting here wondering if we’re getting two house locations out of it.

Wait whaaaaa?
No Shrek and no MIB, so new tent next to F&F and a house using the queue?
Until I see movement at MiB tent, I’m wondering if they need two alt locations for this year. :shrug:

That would be very interesting. Gives me 1998-2001 vibes where two houses would be in Earthquake.
...This can also help in the long-term should they decide to up the house count to 11 or 12.
That sounds like it would be a nightmare from a queuing perspective. Then again, I never went during the Earthquake/Disaster days, so I have no clue how much space is at play here.

Scream was an optimistic possibility for a while there, but I think that was ultimately more wishful thinking than sound spec. I'm sure they tried, given the timing/new film/exit of previous IP owners.
Gremlins I don't think was ever happening. No idea why people kept trumpeting that one.
I never thought Halloween was coming. Last of Us appears to be a red herring.

I think Halloween is either staying or changing to another IP, then TLoU changed to an original. 5 IP's, 5 originals.
(or replace Halloween with an original and give us a 6/4 split again... wouldn't be complaining...)
