Halloween Horror Nights 35 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

[Kichkinet85]

Sorry if this is somewhere obvious: has there been any discussion on how the 2025 code names ended up linking (or not linking) to the houses? I’m just curious how relevant the code names had been lately.

The only one that I heard meant anything was for the Teriffier house.

They had a few that were a bit more on the nose this year, but basically the only ones that stood out as “obvious” were

WWE - Snapdragon (a wrestling move)
Grave of Flesh - Lily (a flower traditionally used in funerals)
Fallout - Daisy (associated with the nuclear age)
Terrifier - Poinsettia (Christmas and blood red color)

I was told different things for Poppy (death related) and Jasmine (cuz commonly found outside, like a campground)

The codename for Dolls: Let's Play Dead is one of those ones where A&D's connection is fairly broad, even though there's a connection which is far more straightforward.

Iris - According to A&D, it's because of Doll Eyes. Thing is, most mammals and birds have Iris's as well, so it doesn't narrow things down at all.

Meanwhile, Iris is a very well-known song by Goo Goo Dolls...

Cat Lady was also meeting, so I wouldn't read too much into it. Definitely very cool though! Would love to see offerings like that make it into the actual event.

We really do need more Meet and Greets at the event, honestly, it's an easy way to have something to stabilize the lines a little bit and it's not like they don't have places to stage it waiting to go throughout the park. The HHN Bar's stages are a shout in the right direction but having some face characters that are ready for interaction's always great. Scareactor Dining seemed pretty neat for this but I'm assuming that it got discontinued for a reason.
