Halloween Horror Nights 29 General Discussion

[Legacy]

Forgive me if this is a silly question, but has HHN ever re-used a property for multiple years? I'm going for the first time this year and I really would love to see Killer Klowns again. Sadly I feel like it isn't very likely, but figured I would ask if Universal has done something like that in the past.

IPs used multiple times (off the top of my head):

Psycho
People Under the Stairs
The Mummy
Halloween
The Walking Dead
American Werewolf in London
Purge
Trick R Treat

EDIT - If we want to throw Hollywood into the mix (still off the top of my head):

House of a Thousand Corpses
Friday the 13th
Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Don't forget American Horror Story, Saw and The Purge.

Those too.

I didn't feel like thinking too hard.

I feel ya.

The Purge is big to account for at the very least as it's now been used as many consecutive years as TWD was.

Actually, it wasn’t in 2016 so technically there was a gap. But 2017 had it in three different places so it more than made up for that.

Ah, yes. Forgot about that. It was planned for the New York zone that year before the Pulse shooting happened and they changed to an original concept.

 

[Darko]

I ,uh, really want a pirate house for some reason. Or a scarezone. I'll take either.

 

[Horror Lover]

Don't forget American Horror Story, Saw and The Purge.

And Nightmare On Elm Street

 

[Legacy]

And Nightmare On Elm Street

Technically, NoES has only appeared in Orlando once - 2007.

Freddy vs Jason is considered a different IP.

EDIT - Orlando repeated IPs I missed:

Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Tales from the Crypt (Crypt Keeper)

 

[JawsVictim]

Do we wanna run through the repeated originals as well? >

 

[Darko]

On the subject of icons, I really want Eddie to get his time. I want him for HHN30 even though I know we won't get him. Jack will be center stage again more than likely.

 

[NuteGunrayWasFramed]

My new guess for the Family Guy clue is House of 1000 Corpses.

That was my guess a month ago.

Small tidbits of interesting:

I was preparing to slog through 2000+ permits to find out why we hadn’t seen the tent permit or any permits, yet. The first few of this year quickly informed me that there were issues with the permit site at the beginning of the year. Add in the leeway mentioned in the article, and it seems the permits are posting just behind the actual construction.

The wording of the permits is different. HHN is not mentioned and the typical “temporary amusement facilities” is missing.

The address listed is different.

The change in the wording is the one I find most interesting. Interior Alterations gives them wiggle room.

Sure does.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. The 2 aren't connected.

 

[jrn14]

Sure does.

What on earth could this mean?

I don't foresee an announcement. Doesn't mean it won't happen, I just wouldn't get your hopes up.

What on earth could this mean?

It means the permits *could* give some flexibility that allows a rumor I heard to come to fruition.
