Nightshades absolutely ROCKED the CityWalk Plaza Stage again tonight, and Iโ€™m so glad Universal brought them in during Halloween Horror Nights season. The vocals, the musicianship, the energyโ€ฆ this is such a fun addition to an HHN night. ๐ŸŽธ

If you spot Nightshades on the CityWalk schedule, GO SEE THEM.

And yesโ€ฆ Iโ€™ll absolutely be back. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿค˜

Since the arches are being painted, the actual steel HHN medallion has been moved backstage and turned into a sweet photo-op!

The night before HHN 35โ€ฆ ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿค˜

I got to do something VERY cool last night! My friend Ashley invited me to hang out with Nightshades while they rehearsed for their opening night performance at Universal CityWalk tonight.

Iโ€™ve seen tons of videos of them performing, but Iโ€™d never actually seen them liveโ€”so getting to be right there in the rehearsal room and watch everything come togetherโ€”the band, the vocals, the dancers, all of itโ€”was such a fun behind-the-scenes experience.

And I may have come home with a ridiculous amount of footage. ๐Ÿ˜‚

HHN 35 officially starts TONIGHT, and Nightshades will be helping kick things off at CityWalk. Iโ€™ll be there seeing them perform live for the first timeโ€”and if youโ€™re there too, make sure you stop and check them out! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Thanks for letting me crash rehearsal, Ashley! ๐Ÿ–ค

Humanity was promised immortality.

Thousands of years in the future, humans awaken from machine-induced cryosleep expecting to find that promise fulfilled.

Instead, they discover their cybernetic caretakers have been harvesting their flesh and replacing it with synthetic parts. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

The machines still have one singular goal: ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—น๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ.

Even if it kills you.

This concept gets creepier the more I think about it. Itโ€™s not simply machines trying to destroy humanity โ€” theyโ€™re doing exactly what they were created to do. Their version of โ€œsavingโ€ us just happens to involve taking away the parts that make us human. ๐Ÿค–

I am VERY curious to see what Universal Creative does with the body horror and futuristic environments in this one.

After 15 years, H.R. Bloodengutz is back. ๐ŸŽƒ

Longtime HHN fans may remember the creature-feature host from HHN 21, when the cancellation of his show sent him into a violent spiral.

Now Bloodengutz has escaped from prison and returned to WKNB Television Station for ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—›๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐˜€๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—น. ๐Ÿ“บ

This time, weโ€™re tuning in for a Halloween scare-athon filled with ghouls, gore and a curated collection of Bloodengutzโ€™s Halloween favorites.

I LOVE when HHN reaches back into its own history and brings a fan-favorite original character back โ€” especially one we havenโ€™t seen in 15 years. I have a feeling this one is going to be ridiculously fun. ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿฉธ

Welcome to the bottom of the food chain.

Civilization has collapsed. Youโ€™re among the survivors searching for refuge from a dystopian wasteland when you stumble upon the ruins of an old zoo.

The animals are long gone.

Unfortunately, something much worse has moved in. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Warring factions of cannibals have taken their animal instincts to the extreme โ€” theyโ€™re territorial, theyโ€™re hungry, and now ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚โ€™๐—ฟ๐—ฒ the prey.

Universal Creative has described this one as intense, in-your-face and old-school HHN presented in an elevated way โ€” and THAT definitely has my attention. ๐Ÿฉธ

I have a feeling this one could be absolutely brutal.

They didnโ€™t come in peace. ๐Ÿ›ธ

A rural homestead is being torn apart by extraterrestrial โ€œgraysโ€ โ€” and theyโ€™re hunting for new test subjects.

Iโ€™m really intrigued by this one because alien-abduction horror feels completely different from almost everything else in this yearโ€™s lineup. Give me a creepy farmhouse, strange lights in the sky and that horrible feeling that something is out there watching youโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‘€

And apparently, this time, ๐˜„๐—ฒโ€™๐—ฟ๐—ฒ the test subjects.

Two of Halloween Horror Nightsโ€™ most notorious icons are about to collide.

Jack the Clown and Dr. Oddfellow face off inside the ๐—ข๐—ฑ๐—ฑ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐—ฒ, where chaos and control are going head-to-head โ€” and I have a feeling this one is going to be an absolute feast for longtime HHN fans.

I love an original house that comes with history, and bringing these two together has me VERY curious about what Universal Creative has planned.
