Impressive. Would've been better if it had Channel Zero & Grimm, but fair enough.
Before the night ends, also found 2 more leaked mazes and looks like we're getting originals after all! Murdy's really stepping up his game!

My idea was to start off looking like a good lineup but then progressively get worst and worst. Now looking back, it'd look like a decent lineup. Maybe next year I'll try to come up with something and actually pull it off right. B)
Good to know we have at least 7 mazes this year! Does this include TWD?
I think Parisian Square was part of the leaked lineup. So this means we're losing the gauntlet? I was unsure why that happened last year instead of a maze to begin with, but maybe the budget has been boosted after such a successful year. That makes me really excited, that is SO much content. Including the Terror Tram, I mean, wow.
I just hope we get a really cool show this year. My friends weren't totally into Jabbawockeez, even though I loved it, but something rousing and funny like B&T would be very welcome.
They could still have a gauntlet that moves from French street, possibly thru SSFL, down to Baker Street (That's the London street, right?). Plus they can make another one where the Metro Sets entrance is. They can stilll make two if they wanted to.
I am slightly concerned with how the houses will be with seven to design, plus the Terror Tram and scarezones. Like I said earlier, the event needs more creative people for HHN to excel. With an event virtually as big as Orlando now, you need a team of that size. Its probably why there are many returning IPs.
But yeah, I think we'll still end up with Jabawockeez for another year.
Anyone here attending Monsterpalooza for the panel?

I used to think the same since we were on a downward spiral for a while, but all the mazes were designed phenomenally last year. I think what helped is one maze had a minimalist approach (The Exorcist) so that helped with budget being spread into the other mazes. Maybe some years, the design just gets lazy while some years with more inspired properties, they excel. I can't think of any blank wall scenes or annoying empty rooms -- again, aside from Exorcist which used that concept wisely. And AHS had that one random room in Hotel, but I think they just realized they had extra space last minute or something, if I remember correctly from Murdy's twitter when asked about it. But TCM, Halloween, FVJ, TWD, and Krampus were overflowing with props and scenic, it was pretty astounding. Even Terror Tram had triple more stuff on it than usual.
