Welp, with the WB/ Netflix acquisition news, it looks like the catalogue of IPs we won’t see at the event will just get bigger. Sounds like Stranger Things will be one of them.

With the recent reports of WB and Universal in negotiations of increasing the WB IP's licensed to Universal via DC Comics, I actually suspect there might've been a play to have a easier bridge between NBCUniversal and Netflix/WB for licensing.

Won't impact any potential IP's for FFN or HHN 2026 though. Not in the slightest.

I figured it would be more likely now too.

Hey guys so strap in cause this is a long one. Murdy gave us the codename funicular and I think I may have cracked it. Behold the famous Funicular of Guanajuato, a pretty popular tourist attraction in the state of Guanajuato Mexico. While you’re there you may wanna check out the most famous thing in the city THE MOMIAS OF GUANAJUATO.
The momias of Guanajuato are the same mummies that inspired the film “El Santo contra las momias” which inspired the 2023 scarezone “Terror de las momias”. We also know that Murdy had to go back to a prior house treatment to look at notes for a treatment this year (treatment 1) well here’s the kicker. Murdy already researched Guanajuato for the monstruos houses. In fact the Momias were accidentally discovered in the cemetery of Santa Paula in Guanajuato, which may look familiar to some of you guys.

So yeah thanks for coming to my ted talk guys hopefully I convinced some of yall.

Or Funicular is Us returning?

Would Murdy really give away an ip like that though? I thought it was US at first as well but I feel it’s more likely that Murdy would give a codename for an original then give away an ip with a pretty obvious codename like that. US also isn’t the most ideal repeat because the layout would have to be entirely reworked for any of the house locations we have which kinda defeats the purpose. There’s still other options for repeats that you can just copy paste with no problem. Chucky, Creepshow (you’d have to get rid of one of the black hallway segments but that’s it I think), even insidious that’d be pretty funny

@Legacy Yeah Us isn’t exactly a kind of experience that can be easily replicated, unless you had a venue that oriented itself in a way to make a repeat possible.

Only real place you *could* do that, is T-Pad, but that’d mean flipping T-Pad on the side and placing the tent where you have it where the HHN and FFN queues were.

Which—is easier said than done, and that they’ve had the T-Pad system for the past 4 years since 2022.

Murdys done codenames more actively than Orlando too, with stuff like Barnbrack for Weeknd, Churro for Monstruos I believe, and among other things. And typically the clues have had some meaning to a house.

It’s also typically tradition for us to have the Latin American house be one of the first three for treatments too. I think Hydra has a good ebb and flow on this one.
