Halloween Horror Nights 35 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

[Blysthon]

It’s not. It’s not even rumored. Fans have been asking for it since 32. It’s not currently rumored. It’s just fans assuming what they want is what is going to happen.

Yes for right now all of this is just spec, besides this is November. It’s way too early for rumors to be popping up left and right. Once we know everything it’ll probably be by Spring.

But For Right now, we’re Hitting things on a wall that doesn’t stick.

I’d bet on it.

 

[Legacy]

I’d bet on it.

It’s your money.

I’m just saying, nothing is confirmed until it’s confirmed.

And it’s November.

And it’s November.

So would it be an Oddfellow solo year again? Considering the comments about them treating HHN35 as an Anniversary Year (when they confirmed the 5 originals had been written), and the cloth, wouldn’t it indicate that something funky is going on?

Or would you think it’s just a “Lol I’m cryptic” for the sake of speculation for the sake of speculation.

If I was Orlando, I’d have the general theme plan figured out for an anniversary far enough where some whispers could come out.

I don’t know. But I tend to not put a lot of credit in small “teases” that are not pushed as “official.” A cloth in a house on the last night could be a tease, but it could just as likely be wishful thinking by a team member.

The final night of 25, the final Usher performer in the Icon zone wrote “C U Next Year” in blood at the end of the night. Fans SWORE it was an official thing; Usher was obviously returning as the icon for 26. It was just a scareactor talking about themselves. It wasn’t a teaser.

HHN is no stranger to changed plans… and that includes overall themes. They’re also no afraid to “officially tease” stuff for anniversary years. The secret zone at 19… Jack appearing in the farewell video for 24… when they *know* what they’re doing for an anniversary (and they know fans are excited about it), they go for it. They let us know.

If the official social media alluded to the tapestry, then this would be a different conversation. But no one has. Not the official media… not any of design team… nothing. They typically have original concepts locked in the summer of the year prior (they work 16-18 months in advance of the year). So they may know an Oddfollow house is happening… but there’s no signs it’s a full scale Oddfellow vs Jack anniversary centered event yet.

There we have it, Now enjoy your Pumpkin Pie in the coming weeks everyone.

What are you talking about? This isn’t a saying and what’s with the odd capitalization?

 

[HHN Maddux]

Yeah… I’ve noticed it last year too. I honestly think the event is too long for the community where, after four weeks, the focus shifts to “what’s next” while there’s still five weeks left. Add the frequency at which so many fans go to the event creates a familiarity where we start asking for me.

It happens with new rides too.

I’m just going to sit and ponder Universal having success with an experimental IP like WWE, establishing a relationship with Amazon for Fallout, and needing something to drive a show.

Oh, look… Hazbin Hotel is available now.

Circling back to spec, was re-reading through and this caught my eye. Is Hazbin something you've actually been hearing about, or just pointing out that if Uni wanted, it's definitely viable now?

Damn autocorrect lol, right now, I might come off as unreliable. But some of us, are speaking some nonsense at this point.

 

[rageofthegods]

One thing I'm surprised hasn't been speculated on more:

Robert Eggers has The Werwulf out next year. They could do a fun compilation house with that and Nosferatu.

I don’t think they would do that, so far this has been wishful thinking. On an other note, who am I here to judge. We all love being delusional but, the only rumor we have Is Hellraiser at the moment.

And If I’m wrong you all can clown me

Edit: People have been craving for creature, And love that universal Monster. But some People of the general Population don’t know who Robert Eggers is.

But that can make a very scary house

I don't think this is true anymore. Nosferatu made more money at the box office than The Black Phone, and it made about as much as Insidious 5 and M3gan. It was a huge hit!

Perfect cross-promo opportunity too, although the biggest factor here is whether or not Eggers would allow it to happen (the fact that Nosferatu didn't come this year despite the fact that his movie hit it big suggests maybe not).

I definitely agree that Eggers' work is popular enough to warrant being at the event, but there are obstacles. Most notably, Werwulf will again release on Christmas day, which is too late for it to be featured next year.

As you mentioned, it is a bit murky as to whether Eggers would allow his properties to be at the event. The creative team has also seemed to prioritize their own interpretation of the Universal Monsters, rather than more recent theatrical adaptions, and works that are viewed as somewhat adjacent to them (which Nosferatu and Werwulf at least partially fall under).
