Start talking HHN 35!
After months of tiny breadcrumbs and whispered rumors floating around the HHN universe, today’s the day we finally dive in.
Is Stranger Things actually making a comeback?Could HHN land a potential Oscar-winning movie this year?Is Jack back?....again
Only time will tell… but it’s officially rumor season, and we’re talking ALL about it. Let’s get into it. 

HHN35 Guess Map

The time has come for our now seemingly annual Halloween Horror Nights Guess Map episode! 
Somehow, over the past two years, we’ve lucked (or maybe skill’d?) our way into nailing a few of these picks, so let’s see how many we can call this year.
 
Every property on this map is pure guess work on our end. We put this together back in December before most of the rumors even started swirling.
 
Think we missed something?
Have a prediction of your own?
Drop it in the comments and let’s talk HHN!
