Really excited for this. I hope they don’t hold back on the gore and brutality, though I am afraid they’ll “Stranger Things” this house and make it more of a walkthrough attraction rather than a haunted house…

My #1 anticipated list and I’m glad they’re doing this based on the video games. While not the first video game house, I do certainly hope this reopens the door for video game IPs to come.

I wonder if they’ll mix elements of the show as well?

 

[FBarnhill]

I'm already seeing replies to this on how this will be so "woke". I swear, it's the fans who hate the franchise a lot more than the general public.

 

[chris.g]

Those “fans” will probably never even have the opportunity or have had the opportunity to go to HHN. They’re just mad the sequel didn’t play out to their terribly imagined vision.

 

[Ron101]

I wonder if this will stay closer to the appearance of the game or TV series. Perhaps both?

 

[Jerroddragon]

It doesn't look like it but this maze/scare zone would have been prefect for the lower lot sets....I know its not happening but would have been perfect

The fact they’re being selective in where this house is set actually makes me interested to how far they go with Pittsburgh, as opposed to being a Stranger Things in it encompassing the entire product.

So….we have a location yet?

@HydraGen2299 and a friend seemed to caught on what it is if I am not mistaken: Mummy Venue, as the facade seems to be a QZ entrance within Pittsburgh proper.

That’s….a choice. Why not the sound stage? Maybe they found a more suitable IP for 29?

 

[foodstampsFTW]

Little surprised it’s not based off the show but im more than fine with it being based off the game. Probably gonna be my most anticipated this year.

[Horror Lover]

I wonder if they're not allowed to mention or acknowledge the TV series ala not being allowed to mention The Shining novel or Stephen King by name when they did The Shining back in 2017..

 

[Jaden]

Looking at the key-art of this maze, I don’t why, but I find it mind-boggling just seeing a PlayStation logo on it. It’s not even a big deal at all, yet something about it just fascinates me. It’s like the equivalent of seeing a Mickey logo on Super Smash Bros when Sora was announced.

 

[Jake S]

it's going to be pretty rad walking through this and hearing the (fantastic) music from the game.

 

[TheGentTrent]

I can’t wait for the inevitable promotional video of Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson going through this house.

 

[Wigglepebbles]

Is the current merch those “preview exclusive” or is it the design moving forward?

 

[BriefCasey]

I do certainly hope this reopens the door for video game IPs to come.

Just spitballing, but the first ones I wondered that could be HHN material are FNAF or Metroid (Dread or Fusion, probably), though those are less realistic looking IPs, which is opposite from what HHN seems to usually go for. Though there is the FNAF movie coming.

If either of those ever happen...I might actually consider braving HHN for once just for those mazes. Helps that SNW will be a safe zone, provided it'll be open (which I have no idea about for this one since it'll be the first HHN since SNW's opening. I know HP wasn't open for years, but I think it comes down to the Big N's discretion.) Though that said, I've no interest in TLOU but another game being repped at HHN is very interesting and I'm happy for the TLOU fans.

That said, this might be a shocker, but I've never been to HHN in my life, and just read up on it. Simply because I don't like horror movies, and it doesn't mix well with not liking gore played for horror, which is often the bread and butter for horror and HHN mazes, and having seen video footage of some of them, being immersed in that kind of setting isn't my cup of tea. ^^''

I’m only interested in seeing Resident Evil or Silent hill back. Hopefully this does pave the way though
