1. Dead End (Upside 1/Downside 3)
2. Silent Hill (Upside 1/Downside 4)
3. Gothic (Upside 1/Downside 4
4.Penn and Teller: Newkd Las Vegas (Upside 3/Downside 5)
5.Universal's House of Horrors (Upside 2/Downside 7)
6.The Walking Dead: Dead Inside (Upside 4/Downside 6)
7. Alice Cooper: Welcome to My Nightmare (Upside 3/ downside 7)

Upside= If all goes well what it could be
Downside= If all goes wrong what it could be.

Rankings are completely subjective...just how strong I think the concepts are and how good/bad I think the execution could be.
Like P&T sounds amazing...but I've never been that amazed by the comedy houses. I love comedy, but I can't see it being house of the year.

1) Penn and Teller - 3D was pulled off incredibly last year, the video teaser looked insane, and I love everything about the concept.
2) Gothic - The early comments and released photos have put this house pretty high on my list.
3) Alice Cooper - Based off of the HHN Hollywood house's hype from last year and the fact that it looks brilliant.
4) Dead End - Very interesting concept and could be great.
5) Silent Hill - Very excited based off of what I've seen involving the franchise and how it could be implemented.
6) Universal's House of Horrors - Seems like a very exciting concept, but it's not blowing me away just yet. I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being my sleeper hit.
7) The Walking Dead - I've never watched the show or read the comics. It still seems like an awesome house, but I have very little invested in it at this time.

Surprisingly enough, I don't think there's one bad house on the lineup based off of what we've seen thus far. They all look very promising and I'm stoked. :thumbs:

1) Universal House of Horrors (done right this could be a top house ever)
2) Gothic (early reports suggest they nailed it)
3) Penn & Teller Newkd Las Vegas (I'm a sucker for the dark humor houses, and P&T are masters at dark humor)
4) Alice Cooper: Welcome to My Nightmare (if you grew up in the 70s and saw him on The Muppet Show, you'd understand)
5) Dead End (could go either way--no sure about use of the vortex, may live or die based on the cast)
6) Silent Hill (not familiar with the game, but the rave reviews and, let's be honest, the previews of the nurses have me intrigued--hoping there's a storyline novices can follow as well, tho)
7) The Walking Dead (the strength of the show is its characters, not its cliched zombies; also given the promotion and isolated location, I expect this will have the longest lines)

I've added a poll. Vote away!

 

[Brian G.]

I will be adding a dedicated section to houses and favorite street experiences later. Was late (obviously) when everything was released, and was already tired.

 

[Roll N Fear]

Do we have an accurate guess on the location of the houses before I make my assumption?

Yup. Made by Gambit @ HNN:

Thanks TBad!

1. House of Horrors - Expecting the best of the best from this one.
2. Gothic - 16 foot ceilings and early reports bump this one to the top of my list.
3. Silent Hill - It's no Resident Evil but has potential
4. Dead End - Not sure what to expect from this one but a SS always makes everything better.
5. Penn & Teller - Probably has the best chance of moving up high on my list but for now it will stay towards the middle.
6. The Walking Dead - Earthquake queue kills this one on my list.
7. Alice Cooper - This house makes no sense to me and just seems goofy. I'd rather they use a more current rock icon.... Marilyn Manson. Nothing is scarier than seeing that man in the "boob suit".

 

[Codeblak]

1. Penn & Teller - A 3D comedy house in a location that generally favors more intense scares? Sounds like a winner.
2. Gothic - An original concept to say the least. Best guess for theatrical winner.
3. House of Horror - A return to the classic monsters is certainly exiting. This, coupled with the B&W style sounds exiting. Best guess for 'Fun' house.
4. Dead End - The one I'm least certain about, but you give me a proper haunted house, and I'll probably love it.
5. Welcome to my Nightmare - I'm not a fan of Alice Cooper's music so I don't see the appeal, but with rave reviews from Cali and a prime location, I'm optimistic. Contender for Most intense.
6. Welcome to Silent Hill - Exited that Universal is open to doing Houses based on Video Games, but I've never played the games so I have no opinion. (If not for TWD, I'd say Left 4 Dead was Made to be a house.)
7. The Walking Dead - I'm not sure how well it will translate. Also, Current wait time: Two hours.

The only one I'm excited about based on what I've so far read and seen us Peen and Teller. The rest just seem...generic.
