Halloween Horror Nights 33 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

[TheHaunter]

I think The Weeknd as a house could potentially make up for some not feeling the IP lineup is that strong this year

I think the only problem with this is that most people are speculating that since the weekend was rumored to be doing music for a scarezone the scarezones would be the only thing at HHN featuring The Weeknd and we might not get a house. Hopefully this changes because the weekend was one of the best houses on both coasts and I'm sure almost everyone wants him to make a return. The lineup may not seem strong but this is just speculation hopefully insidious and ghostbusters are the only IPS that say. I wouldn't mind if anything else changed.

Preview of the crowds inside the Weeknd scarezone and house entrance

Cool! That frees up the rest of the houses for those of us who do not give a crap. LOL

Why are we talking about Beetlejuice now?

Uh oh.

 

[Casper Gutman]

Beetlejuice and Ghostbusters as key IPs would make me a very happy camper, but boy, there’d be some howls. Strong merch and lagoon show potential, though.

It’s kind of amusing given how little we know that so much discussion seems to center on which of a collection of rather unexciting IPs will end up in the event’s one really awful venue. Will none of our insiders show pity and throw out a crumb or two about the originals?

Sweet Revenge seems like a very solid lead

Beetle juice and Ghostbusters are some heavy hitters but may I ask if any of you think we will get mature/high age rated houses this year? I would want some Gorey or just straight up disturbing IPS. I know Hollywood might get something disturbing with their IP exclusive but other than that I just straight up have to know.

Originals do gore better

What’s going on with Beetlejuice this year?

He’s got a new movie coming out September 5th!

Is he celebrating at HHN?

Is he celebrating at HHN?

He’d be a way better pick than Weeknd so I sure hope so!

Beetlejuice + Weeknd mashup or we riot.

 

[Killer Klown]

True, get rid of Insidious and put in both BJ2 and Weeknd and we’d be cooking something with that theoretical lineup!

I feel that The Weeknd would deserve a better location than F&F. I know we say that the location doesn’t matter because tents have had a good track record, but F&F feels way to crammed to put anything beyond small props per room when the property has a lot of visuals to play with

If it’s a replacement/upgrade from scare zone, they may not have a choice, as all other locations are already spoken for. I’m speculating of course.

 

[Ahmanet]

I love Beetlejuice and will see the new movie opening weekend ... but have zero interest in him getting a house , just doesn't translate well

 

[Acandrews12]

So theoretically, if we see The Weeknd, A Quiet Place, Ghostbusters, Insidious, and Beetlejuice as the new IPs, four of the five of them have been to HHN in the past. Would that be a record of repeated IPs?

I know there would be different iterations, but the IP is still the same.

I missed all this spec yesterday about The Weeknd and I'm over here like...
Don't get your hopes up, it's only spec season, don't get your hopes up, it's only spec season

But dang I'd be lying if I said I'm not hopeful. I've been obsessed with The Weeknd since I looked into his stuff when he was speculated for 2022 because I was originally one of those "hE's NoT hOrRoR" people, but I was so sold on him after I watched his MVs. And the house just solidified it for me-- one of my all time favorites. Would be super excited to see them translate Dawn FM into a house

 

[TheCodeMan95]

I'd personally prefer them to put an original in F&F so they can specifically create something to fit well in the venue.

But I don't remember the Weeknd house having any massive props/sets outside of the first stage room, so it could work there.

 

[theuberguberman]

There was the big train at one point part of the way through the house as well, but otherwise nothing else was that big. And looking through the Dawn FM MVs, I honestly think those could do just fine not in a soundstage. Though I agree I'd rather an original in F&F that's meant for specifically that space and put The Weeknd literally anywhere else.
