It would be cool to see some lights flashing like in poltergiest, which shows the evil being unleashed all over the store.Getting a vintage storefront vibe from this.... Could be a antiques store. Which does correspond to rumors of a pandoras box type maze.
Toy Story 4 Maze would be great.Definitely, something like this:

I'm converted. I now think it's an antique store.
Can’t wait to see all this mazes at hhn HollywoodConstruction update taken today! Couldn’t get ST or much of Metro though.
I actually didn’t have my phone out when the stage fOR ST happened to be open.
Ghostbusters lookin good!

Can’t really see it well, but behind those bushes are two thrones. Maybe that’s where Hades will sit at?

Weird that they aren't using the 3d murder ride facade piece like they used to. Sorta makes me wonder if they're trying to keep this maze a bit cheap.View attachment 10659

Yea I’m hoping that they detail it up more cause the facade is basically just paintWeird that they aren't using the 3d murder ride facade piece like they used to. Sorta makes me wonder if they're trying to keep this maze a bit cheap.
I think they should've just went with the film poster as the facade. No use in doing the same facade if you did it better in 2011View attachment 10659

I have noticed alot of scaling back on the facades compared to last year (Ghostbusters being the obvious exception). Last year we had incredibly detailed house facades with windows and decals; Poltergeist, Trick R Treat, Halloween 4, and The First Purge all had incredibly detailed facades that probably cost a pretty penny. UCM's castle facade couldn't have been cheap, either.I have a feeling, what with the size of the Water World queue, and most likely other mazes eating up large portions of the budget, this year's facade is gonna be pretty scaled down, at least compared to 2010/2011's. Maybe the scares will make up for that, as facades can sometimes trick people, with past mazes having really detailed ones, yet mediocre maze execution and vice versa.
I don't disagree. I honestly think they did it out of necessity this year, considering the fact they were adding two mazes, tram or no tram. Creepshow could've been Joe Hill's house, FMTW could've been the castle ruins, and House of 1000 Corpses probably would've been much more detailed, but they weren't. I don't particularly mind, though I do hope that Horror Nights doesn't completely stop doing those sorts of facades either.Unpopular opinion: If the scaling-down quality of this year's facades results in more details within the maze (e.g. better looking sets, less blackout rooms, etc..) then I honestly don't mind.
With the pretty stellar maze lineup this year, that's definitely gonna attract more guests, as well as alcohol sales, I'm hoping this year will result in an even bigger budget for 2020. Plus the experience of this year with having "10" (really 9) mazes will hopefully prepare them for how to allocate the budget in future years. Especially since I doubt that we're getting Stranger Things next year which, I won't be surprised, is taking a huge chunk of this year's budget.I don't disagree.

Personally, I think it’s a stylistic choice.Weird that they aren't using the 3d murder ride facade piece like they used to. Sorta makes me wonder if they're trying to keep this maze a bit cheap.
Sorta odd stylistic choice, considering the event tends to go for accuracy over style for the most partPersonally, I think it’s a stylistic choice.
