1.) Vamp '69: Summer of Blood - I've never been to Vamp '55 or '85, so this'll be my first experience with the series, and it sounds fun! The music selection will probably be fun, potential for lots of unique character designs, and vampires, which are automatically super cool in my book. Will definitely be a fun zone to chill out in, especially during S&S.
2.) Shipyard 32: Horrors Unhinged - The way the podcast described this almost feels like an off-season anniversary zone? I'm really curious to see which old characters Dr. Oddfellow was keeping on (figurative) ice. I'm also glad this zone seems to be taking advantage of the San Francisco setting, and it feels like it'll be a cross between that and the old Fright Yard zone from 2004/HHN 14.
3.) Dark Zodiac - Really, really excited to see the zodiac monster designs they come up for this zone (if they don't just yoink the designs from the Singapore version of this zone). The mentions of tarot-related characters and imagery also sound very fun. I will absolutely be seeking out the Scorpio scareactor and taking a selfie with them in my Scorpio T-shirt. Otherwise, I hope the scenic for this zone works. I find a lot of the time, zones which are themed after an "evil dimension" and such just... kinda have weak scenic if it's not in Central Park. Perhaps a 7-style approach would work?
4.) Dr. Oddfellow's Collection of Horror - Even if it's just a "table of contents" zone with actors taken from other zones, I'll still really love this if it has a circus vibe to it (especially in terms of music), has the big "HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS" marquee they've used for the last 2 years, and has Dr. Oddfellow as a sort of barker/standing character a-la Pumpkin Lord last year.
5.) Jungle of Doom: Expedition Horror - Please don't be racist. Please don't be racist. Please, for the love of god, don't be racist. I've seen images/premise of the original Jungle of Doom from 2003, and they did not age well. I do not need a white guy in a headdress jumping out at me. If it's hopefully not that, this could be a pretty good zone! I'll have to wait and see, but the environment sounds very fun.
EXTRA - Death Eaters and M3gan Horde - Death Eaters in Diagon Alley feels like something that should have happened already, but I don't mind it taking this long. I really love the vibes of DA at night, so I think this'll only add to it, even if we lose it as quiet little corner of the park during HHN. As for the M3gan horde (is that even still coming?), it sounds fun. I'd prefer a new variant of the Chainsaw Drill Team, though.
