Halloween Horror Nights 35 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

[Spooky_Bitz]

I loved Welcome to SCarey and it was in my personal top five of 2021. I was very happy to see past Carey properties i never got to experience. Especially after doing a lot of research on past originals. I hope the rumored H.R. Bloodengutz house is something similar but without the plexiglass and vinyl. And i get the concern with the general public but… I’m okay with houses like that appealing more so to the die hard fans

If it is, I hope they do a better job than Scarey. I worked that house, so it holds a special place in my heart, but it confused so many people, because if you were not a dyed in the wool HHN fan, you had no clue what was going on. That, and it really suffered from the vinyl curse. (TRUST: The scares in that house would have been SOOO much better without the vinyl).

If it is a "mashup" I hope that HRBG intros each room, or something like that to give some cohesion. With the rather mixed reception of Welcome to Scary, I don't know if they will do another mash up so soon. I really do like the idea of HRBG hosting "RUN", since this *may* be the last year that location can be used... I have little doubt that as soon as Hollywood Drift opens, FF will close.

with Scarey, I personally was ok with the random characters, but the biggest problem I had was the sets. it was too random I wish it felt more like an actual town like Blood Moon: Dark Offerings.
it was like too random

Marathoned Scarey like 6 times with my buddy one day right at opening, it was his first year at HHN and one of his favorites. It was my 12th year and also pretty up there.

I hear you on a lot of this. I liked SCarey but understood the complaints. As someone who never got to see many of those houses, it was great to catch Dead End / Wyandot, etc though.

If they were to go the mash up route, an intro with HR as the star and then at least a voiceover between each room (à la Slaughter Sinema) of him introducing the next “segment,” represented by a different original concept, could work.

The reality is, even within the F&F location, I think there are plenty of claustrophobic fan favorites that could be featured in tight quarters to strong effect: Scarecrow, Darkest Deal, Wicked Growth, etc. Bordering on wish list, so I’ll cut myself off. But I think there’s reason to think they will do a mash up (just drawing a trend line) and that this could be it.
