Greetings internet dwellers!

So this afternoon the HHN Orlando Twitter feed, decided to have some fun with fans. It began with a postcard from France, where a girl named Emily chronicles the pending zombie apocalypse. From what I gather, Emily and Greg are on their honeymoon in Paris. Which in this case, is severe bad timing. Greg gets bit, and turns into a zombie. Emily is caught in a country where she can't understand the language, and now Greg is dead and a zombie, and things have escalated quickly. She awaits her turn to get the hell outta Dodge, which I'm SURE will happen...

Anyway, one of the other little fun bits to come out of today, was Emily's sister. The postcards are sent to one, Kimberly Duncan. For those who don't know that name, Kimberly Duncan, was the annoying tour guide at Cyberdine Systems on T2 3D: Battle Across Time. More than anything, this is what entertained me the most today. It's also interesting to note, Kimberly Duncan, lives in Carey, Ohio of all places. As that's where the postcards are sent. 

Of course, a bunch of die-hards are now pinning over every word, every inch, every letter in the postcards, to find any kind of clues they can. While I don't believe this is connected to anything Legendary Truth related, some are going to inspect these with a fine-toothed comb. 

Anyway, you can follow the ill-fated journey below.

Well, it's happening. If I had a nickel for every time I have heard people scream for Killer Klowns to come to Halloween Horror Nights, I would be and extremely wealthy man. Yes, the last two scare zones for the event have been announced. They are both IP based. You may either love these ideas, or hate these ideas.

First off, Killer Klowns, may be a bitter pill to swallow for some not in the know. The key here, is going to be those who aren't interested or know about the film, to buy it as an original idea. I talked a little bit about this with Trick 'r Treat last year. On a personal level, I'm kind of indifferent to this. I don't hold the giddy fondness for the film that some people do. I've only seen it a handful of times, and I really just find it to be a bad film. Eh, it has some moments, but for the most part, it's just not my cup of tea. Perhaps it is time for me, to revisit the film with this now coming to the event. 

Then we have Revenge of Chucky. This is the IP where you will hear all the superfans, complain about having IP's at the event, after excitedly shouting their praises for Killer Klowns. The die-hards really don't take kindly to Chucky being at the event. They will use the he's overused excuse, even though we haven't seen Chucky properly represented since 2009. Sure, he was in the Die-In scare zone in 2015, However, that was such a minute ripple at the event, he was barely there. 

Killer Klowns, will have you dodging the Klowns, as they try and turn you into cotton candy. There is talk of a lot of smells here. Honestly, the description for this, seems really bland. Revenge of Chucky, will take place during a toy fair. The Chuckster, has possessed the other toys and they are out to get you. Of course, Chucky, wants to play too.  

So that does it for now. At this point in time, we get a break for a while in terms of the announcements. It's hard to believe, we are coming into July already. We still have 6 houses left to be announced. Good times. You can see the announcement video below. 

Greetings internet dwellers!

We just keep rollin' with these announcements this year. The latest, is Slaughter Sinema, an homage to horror "B" movies and Grindhouse flicks. According to the blog, the house will feature everything from werewolf bikers, to alien cannibals, to a Swamp Yeti. Yes, a swamp Yeti.

The blog also released a teaser video and a bunch of posters, to go along with some of the movies featured inside the house. I must say that this house, has had me impressed for quite a while. As I learned more and more details about it, I was more and more intrigued. 

This is a littler more high concept, than things that they have announced thus far. It's going to be interesting to see the reaction to those who aren't as into this type of thing. It's a little more tongue-in-cheek, and the content is a little more weirder than most. 

I for one, can't wait for this house. This is by far, the house I am looking forward to the most at HHN 28. Based off of what I already know (*wink). It should also be noted that the drive-in, is located in Carey, Ohio. If you would like to read up on the drive-in and more about Carey Ohio, please check out our Carey, Ohio information page. 

​You can check out the video and posters below. 

Greetings internet dwellers!

So much stuff to get through today. First and foremost, take note at the change on the site today. The old school TV and VHS look is pretty sweet. The first and most important thing that happened today, is that tickets officially went on sale. You can head over to the site and purchase them now. The next piece of info that dropped, is the official confirmation of 10 houses.
​
The next items up for bid, are 3 original scare zones. We have Vamp 85: New Year's Eve, Twisted Tradition, and The Harvest.

Vamp '85, is an obvious sequel to the popular Vamp '55 from 2016. And it will take place during New Year's Eve. If I had to guess, this would be in New York.  

Twisted Tradition is a little interesting. They reveal in the description says that it will be in Central Park. It almost sounds as if it's Trick 'r Treat from last year, but warped. It sounds interesting, but also very much like a scare zone that would go into Central Park.

The Harvest is no doubt, a blatant attempt to capture the success of Scarecrow: The Reaping last year. It even has "The Reaping" in the description. Perhaps we will see another barn raising somewhere in the Studios.

Last up, Academy of Villains has been confirmed to return this year. If I had to guess, the team will get an upgrade into the Fear Factor building. With no Bill & Ted, they should get a slightly better place to perform. There is no description as to what the show will be, just that they are returning. 

And that's it. So much goodness happened today. And there will be more to come this month.

​Say tuned, all!

Greetings internet dwellers!

Well, it may not have been announced the way they wanted, but Trick 'r Treat will return to HHN. The property will be upgraded to house status this time. The Michael Dougherty directed film, was featured at HHN 27 as a scare zone. The scare zone was really popular with guests, and was highly regarded by most fans.

While I am not a huge fan of this movie, I do want to see this property as a house. I think the material lends itself to being a house. The scare zone felt more like a traditional Halloween section of the park. Those unfamiliar with the movie, may not even have known it was even based on a film. With an upgrade to a house, those who aren't as familiar with the property, can see what its really made of.

I would be amiss if I didn't make mention of the goof on Tuesday evening. Yes, someone hit the video button early on Halloween Horror Nights Hollywood's Youtube page. It happens. Hopefully we don't have any more incidents like this this year. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if we have one, or two others. It's just bound to happen sometimes with so many components running at once.

Nevertheless, Trick 'r Treat is returning. To both coasts. 

I don't expect another announcement to happen until June. That's it for now. Until next time. 

Greetings internet dwellers!

This early?! Yes, this early. They hype train for the event, is THIS early. However, and original this early?! Yes, an original this early. I mean, why not? If their current plan for releasing stuff holds true, it makes sense to toss in some originals and other things to shake it up a little.

Anyway, so Dead Exposure: Patient Zero is next up for bids. I know the original is a fan favorite. It also has the legacy bonus, of being tied into the first Legendary Truth game. However, I am not as enamored with the first as some. I thought it was an OK house, but not the greatest.

This new version according to the blog, will drop us into Paris in 1982. We may collectively, want to get used to that decade at this year's event... Patrick Braillard, says to expect some of the same elements from the first house, in this one. So the darkness gag from the first, looks like it will live in this. The City of Lights has gone dark, and we are now being hunted by zombies. Yay.

Anyway, so that's it for this announcement. Keep your eyes peeled. More stuff is on the horizon.

Greetings internet dwellers!

I think its going to take some time for some, to really grasp just how big of a get this is. Landing this name to be featured at HHN 28, is a big deal. Not just a big deal in terms of the name, but probably an even bigger deal to try an pull off.

Having Stranger Things at the event, is even bigger than having The Walking Dead. Stranger Things, is something that transcends demographics. It has a much broader, wider appeal, than something as genre as The Walking Dead. Couple that with the fact that Stranger Things is at the height of its popularity, and you have a megastorm brewing.

Anyway, according to the description, the house will obviously feature the creatures from the Hawkins lab, the Demogorgon, and the Upside-down. It also mentions some characters within the maze itself. So it's not a Walking Dead situation, I guess. Or at least, I hope. I think a lot of people are looking to see the likes of Eleven in the house. They do mention Barb. Freaking Barb. 

Stranger Things is coming to HHN 28. When I first heard about this in November, my first thought was, "Good Luck." This is going to be a tall order for them to pull off. If they do, more power to them.

This could also go horribly wrong. You can read more about it on the blog.

Anyway, that's it for now. As we are in announcement mode now, always keep your eyes peeled.

It can always get crazy when you least expect it.

Greetings internet dwellers!

Lots of HHN 28 stuff dropped today. I was working, so I haven't had a chance to say much.

First off, we have official confirmation on the dates. Secondly, we got a neat buy one, get one offer. It's an interesting move to make. For the most part, something like this is designed for the on-site guest. Someone who is staying a few days, and has the opportunity to go multiple nights. Or perhaps someone who just wants to go twice, but doesn't want to drop their life savings on a multi-day pass. The offer ends on June 6th of 2018.

Also, withing the blog post, we got confirmation of the number of houses (and Scare Zones). The number is no surprise, but it brings to rest any holdouts for this ten house rumor. We have nine houses and five Scare Zones.

We also got a little bit of an updated logo.

That's pretty much it for now. Keep your eyes peeled. Things. Things are coming.

After today's announcement about holiday festivities, I was expecting "something" to drop about HHN 28. Honestly, I thought it would be tomorrow, but I digress. Mike Aiello, decided to throw fans a bone on Twitter this evening. We got ourselves a "codename". 

The throwing out of codenames, is nothing new. Obviously, HHN Hollywood does this all the time. However, John Murdy, likes to play with the fans by having them run around in circles for months, trying to figure out what things actually mean. 

HHN Orlando, throws out a name or two every once in a while. The codes, are usually the names they give to houses (and Scare Zones), to keep their real names secret.

Anyway, our codename is POISON. Taking the play a little further, Aiello, posted a photo of a description of a scene. SCENE 7 - SPLATTER, is all we get to massage our brains.

So that's it for now. Who knows, perhaps things are coming quicker than one may think. Keep your eyes peeled.

​Later, all. 

Greetings internet dwellers!

HHN Legacy generally doesn't post anything that hasn't been confirmed by Universal, or Halloween Horror Nights directly. In the case of the dates for this year's event, I feel there is enough ancillary evidence to make an "educated guess" on the dates.

With the hours for Universal Studios posted for the fall, it's reasonable to assume that Halloween Horror Nights 28 will start on September 14th, and run through November (probably ending on the 3rd). 

Today, a video surfaced (which I will not post here), which also posts the dates for the event. It should be noted that said video, isn't a new video at all. It's the same video Halloween Horror Nights posted at the end of the event last year. It's just cut down to 30 seconds, with some added text and a new end graphic to include the dates. To see the full original video, you can go to HHN's Twitter page.  

So while nothing has been said officially, it's reasonable to assume we have our dates.

​That's all for now.
