Fear and Beer: A Halloween Horror Nights Podcast

We have not one, but TWO announced houses for this year's Halloween Horror Nights 33 !    What are some ideas we have for crazy Slaughter Sinema 2 "movie" ideas? Is Goblin's this years "Dwagons" TRIVIA IS THIS WEEK!    Don't miss out on this weeks episode!

A quick update on the most recent Halloween Horror Nights posts. Things are getting more and more active for them and an announcement seems imminent. Let's break down what we've seen and heard these past couple days!

The rumors just keep coming! Twists and turns throughout this chaotic off season have brought us finally to Horror Night Nightmares' Speculation Map v2.0! We have some changes here and there; some stuff is gone, some have moved and some may have morphed into a new concept? Let's dive in!

With no new rumors or speculation this week we decided to let you dictate the way this week's show went and you delivered!   You all wanted answers to certain questions so here they are!

We have our FIRST OFFICIAL HHN33 announcement! So much to discuss with dates starting in August and wrapping up in November, Single Day Tickets, Express and so much more! The return of Speculation Scuttlebutt returns with a whole new batch of rumors regarding both houses and scare zones!

MARCH MADNESS IS HERE! We love a good bracket and we figured let's toss the 4 most recent years into one and decide what Original HHN House emerges victorious!   We took what we think were the Top 4 of the past 4 Halloween Horror Nights seasons (29-32) seeded them and discuss them one by one!

THE TIME IS HERE! We have our first Speculation Map of Halloween Horror Nights 33 from our friends over at Horror Night Nightmares! This year we have to earn our dues by decoding all the images so let’s put on our detective hats and break this all down together one house at a time!

Another week and another batch of rumors! We've seen a few more IP names, a possible show and a Universal Monster name being tossed around online so it's time to discuss!   The Halloween Horror Nights Speculation season is starting to pick up!

There has been a handful of rumors floating around in regards to Halloween Horror Nights 33 already and it's still only February!   Are we still getting Five Night at Freddys? Ghostbusters is back? 2 new Sprung Tents? There is a lot to discuss this week!

Nick and Jamie dive into some of our most beloved past Houses and Scare Zones to see if there are any fun ways to combine two together and create a new concept! Some go together, some are worlds apart, but alas all are fun!

After our vacation to California we are back! Let's pick up right where we left off! Diving into the history of HHN characters who are sort of hiding in plain sight. Some of these are more familiar than others, but can any of these step up in an "Icon" fashion? Maybe, maybe not, but let's discuss!

After last year we saw Halloween Horror Night's acceptance of bringing back older, under used characters and giving them a new polished look. What are some other previous characters you'd like to see get the same treatment? We discovered about half way through this is going to be an ongoing series for us so enjoy Part 1 as we dive into some of the more well known ones and we'll be back next time w...

It's only January and we are still a month or so away from Speculation Season so we figured; what the heck? Let's take a swing at things! This is our own personal "Guess Map" We have no insider information or sources, however we have code names, trends, new movie releases and other various hints to work with so lets dive in and see what we can CONJURE up!

We are in the New Year of 2024 and we can finally say we are going to HHN THIS year. After a 2 week break we catch up on all the news that has come out over the holiday weeks. We have Code Names, Permits, Universal in the UK and more!

With Christmas right around the corner let's look at a couple Holiday Horror movies that would be fun to walk through as Houses! From Gremlins to The Mean One there is a lot of fun potential properties out there for Universal to work with! What would you like to see?

We were invited down to Sir Henry's Haunted Christmas media night!   This local haunt is located in Plant City, FL and runs for select dates in December. December 8th-9th and 15th-17th Be sure to get your tickets online in advance! This year's event features two haunted trails; Slay Bells: Chapter 2 and Creatures of Christmas. On top of the two amazing trails you can also enjoy some laser tag, an...

Is it too early to talk about HHN33? No, perfect we didn't think so either! Last year we nailed some stuff so let's see if we can call our shot again! What do you think we'll see next year at HHN?

We find ourselves in that weird phase of grieving where we don't want to admit and believe it's finally over, but alas. It is. Let's end this HHN season on a high and hand out some hardware. (not real hardware because we're poor, but virtual imaginary hardware) Dress to impress and lets all attend this years Fear and Beer HHN Awards show in style!

Ahhh...the end of a season. Always bittersweet; sad to see it go, but excited to rest and begin speculating for HHN33. Before we get too ahead of ourselves let's look back and rank HHN32 one final time. This year we graded the Scare Zones and Houses in term of Set Design, Costumes, Sound, Use of Area, Scares and Storytelling on a scale of 1-5. We then averaged it all together to present to you the...

Going into our last week of HHN32 let's take a look back at not only this year, but last year as well. What happens when we hold each Scare Zone against the one that came before it? How do the IPs from HHN31 stack up against this year? Do the Originals this year compare to HHN31? Listen along to find out!

Another week into October means another week closer to...the end. Sorry we had to say it sadly, but fear not we have plenty to talk about still! This week we take a look back at our pre-season Hype Lists to re-evaluate the houses and see where things currently are standing! 

Smack dab in the middle of Halloween Horror Nights 32 we think it's a great time to look back at where we had things on our "Hype" Lists and check in on those; Did things move up? Did they move down? This week let's look at Scare Zones and compare where they are now versus where they were before we got to walk in to the fog!

We have finally gone on our 6 House Unmasking the Horror Tour! For those of you unaware of this tour book one now! They are packed full of tidbits of knowledge and behind the scenes information! We will go through as much of the information as we can remember and give you some insight into these tours!  

Last week we were asked to attend the media night for Sir Henry's Haunted Trail down in Plant City, FL!   Celebrating 10 Years as a haunt they have now introduced a new attraction! A HAUNTED HAYRIDE! This year will include said Hayride, 3 Haunted Trails, 2 Escape Games, Ax Throwing and Midway! This event is a Local FL Haunt NECESSITY for all!    

Week 2 is over and Week 3 is kicking off strong! What are some changes we have seen? What are some more changes we want to see? Grab a beer, inhale some fog and enjoy!   If you want to call in to our show please call 689-244-0956
