The Old HHN 30 Speculation Thread (2020)

[00_Themeparkfan_00]

You guys know how the backstory of the Universal Palace Theatre mentions that it used to be a playhouse where they did plays? It would be cool if Mannequin Theatre is actually a prequel to the events of HHN19. Heck, maybe they can even throw in a cameo from The Usher in there. I mean look: It is an anniversary year, so tying a new original house to a prior fan favorite event would make sense.

And perhaps instead of it being ripped from different movies it's ripped from a bunch of plays, kinda like @Legacy 's Ghostlight concept? (That's a fantastic write-up by the way, Legacy.) Unsure if that would be miserable rights-wise or if they can just grab stuff that's public domain at this point.

 

[00_Themeparkfan_00]

Yeah. I feel like they'll be an issue with rights though, but they can do what they did for Slaughter Sinema: where they did original movies inspired by the 80s, what they could do is original plays inspired by real ones: so for example a twisted version of "CATS" or a twisted version of "Hamilton"

I recall someone saying that there will basically 100% be a Billie face mask being sold and I wouldn’t doubt it being the spider crawling from her mouth.

i'd wear the heck out of that. i'd have a hard time choosing between that or beetlejuice

 

[00_Themeparkfan_00]

I'm curious as to how they would do a Beetlejuice mask.

Oh, now I understand.

Mannequin Theater - I get a feeling that any 1 of the 3 unique original houses this year could make the history books & "favorite" lists. I already gave my thoughts on this concept in a previous post. However, now I can think of an additional scene this brings to mind that all you Bioshock fans will get: Sander Cohen. The lore of the mannequins/marionettes/puppets is going to be really cool to dive into. Is the "theater" in question here the Universal Palace Theater? Hmm.

That is the first thought I had when I saw this.

I’ll love if this happened but somehow I doubt it will.

Considering HHNRumors said the facade for Mannequin Theatre is rumored to be a movie theater, I'll not be surprised if this is the Universal Palace Theatre before it became a movie theatre.

On another note: I'd love if the first/last scene for the rumored Icons house is the terra queen getting sacrificed for another 15 years, I mean it'll make sense.

Only on Halloween night. I guess every other night it will be her sacrificing a victim, and on November first she will be mysteriously gone.

With all this talk about The Universal Palace Theater being used in Mannequin Theater and maybe The Usher having a part in it, could other houses possibly have connections to past HHN characters? I could see The Storyteller fitting in with Bedtime Stories and The Director or Eddie fitting in with Texas Chainsaw.

EDIT: NVM, Legacy said that The Storyteller being a part of Bedtime Stories was never rumored.

 

[00_Themeparkfan_00]

Yeah. every other night the terra queen sacrifices a victim, but on Nov 1st she vanishes and thats because she was sacrificed for another 15 years.

 

[Living Dead Dude]

Only thing is it would seem weird for manequin to be universal palace theater and if usher has a room in that house it would probably also be universal palace. However I think that would be truly incredible

 

[00_Themeparkfan_00]

Yeah. It'll be a nice way of paying homage to HHN19 while also bringing something new, as we've never really gotten a house based on marrionettes/plays. So it'll be a good change, tie that in with The Usher and it should be a phenomenal house.

 

[Legacy]

They’re already paying plenty of homage to 19 even if it’s not the Palace.

 

[The Storyteller]

just curious: what’s the deal with tcm now? are they no longer basing it on the second film and moving it to the third movie? was tcm 2 even an option?

Sounds like it’s TCM 3D, the one from 2012(?). Similar concept though in that’s its basically a homecoming for the Sawyer family

When it comes to TCM 2, rights for that film are super wonky. Hence why Hollywood had to do a makeshift original when they did Blood Brothers.

for beetlejuice: if the last scene isnt Lydia flying on some sort of suspension dancing to Shake Shake Shake Senora I will riot
