I wonder what that can mean house-wise. Or wrong definition?

It's not so literal. Allegorically (metaphorically?), it's the same house. Hubris is a personal code name.

 

[RedRightDan]

Maybe a stretch, but does it have to do with Dante's Inferno and/or a journey into the afterlife? Dante is often tagged with being guilty of hubris.

I saw. This officially has my vote now.

While the tagline is still curious, Caretaker represented Death in Fear's series of totems (Jack was Chaos). If Chance was the female Chaos, it wouldn't be Cindy who is death, it would literally be Lady Death.

Cindy would likely be Vengeance.

That'd be REALLY interesting if they're "starting the cycle" again building to 30. I love the look of Lady Death. So I'm in.

And I was thinking... I figured out who would be Sacrifice:

The Terra Queen.

Can someone give me some details on how the 2nd Shrek theater gets transformed into a house? I went through Krampus last year and Asylum in Wonderland 3D in 2015, and I have seen the Shrek show, but only in 1st theater. So it makes me wonder how much work has to be done to make the 2nd theater ready to hold a house...literally in the case of Krampus. It seems like it would be a lot of work to move all the chairs, and then where would they all be stored? And being a theater I would think that the floor would be slanted or tiered. I assume I'm missing something obvious, but it's always made me scratch my head. Thanks in advance.

It really is as simple as taking out the chairs and making a layout. Shrek theater is actually flat so they don't have to worry about leveling. Chairs are just stored somewhere during the duration of event and installed before the Christmas rush.

I've kinda just been skimming this thread lately because I find all of the "clues" and "riddles" and such noise just endlessly pointless and aggravating, so I'm just catching up to the whole Lady Death rumor. I love this idea. She seemed like a great icon at Singapore, so I have no problem borrowing her from them the way they borrowed Jack from us. I pored over all of the photos from dejiki.com last year and the design of her and many of the other characters were just absolutely fun and fantastic. Hopefully some of those other characters would come along for the ride, too.

Maybe we're getting some sort of Dia De Los Muertos/voodoo mashup for our theme? There seems to be a good amount of clues for each side. Perhaps they took Singapore's concept and tweaked it a bit.

What is... life? The answer is life. I'm going to say life, Regis.

theres no correlation between the two

I'm going to say your heart. Can't live without your heart. Supports voodoo queen or lady death both imo.

 

[peasoupprincess]

I mean, Santeria involves animal sacrifice. So there is a little bit of Latinx crossover there. Loosely but. :shrug:

That might cause a bit of controversy as its a religious practice

Yes,but sadly, any religion outside of the Big Three is treated as a novelty in this country.

 

[JTslash]

Looks like an icon/theme reveal is coming soon!

Can't live without brains. It's a teaser for the return of TWD.

Kidding!

Good point really, I know with Exorcist there was some talk of not offending Christians (not even sure why there would be talk of that, since the movie really has no anti-Christian elements), but take any folk religion and there will be no such talk. Then, there should not be anyway, at least as long as nothing is deliberately derogatory. It is sad how silly things get sometimes, last year some six lags parks (I think) bowed to pressure to get rid of an asylum house because it might be offensive to mental patients, I mean come on ...
