We are just a little over a month past HHN 2013 ending, and it isn't even Christmas yet, but Halloween Horror Nights planning is in full swing already and a juicy rumor has already made its way to the forefront. This is a very early time for the first real rumor to surface as the rumor stove usually heats up around February. But here we are with HHN 280 days away (Yes Im counting) and a rumor sure to spark excitement and controversy among hardcore Halloween Horror Nights fans has come up.
According to this rumor, Jack the Clown will be making a return next year. Over the past 23 years Universal has created many original characters for Halloween Horror Nights, the Caretaker, the Story Teller, etc. but none has been more popular than Jack the Clown. Jack is known as the most popular HHN character ever. Since he debuted in 2000, he has also appeared at HHN in 2001, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2009, and 2010, but has not appeared since 2010. After 2010, the HHN directors came out and said Jack would be going away for awhile, but it appears he may be coming back sooner than many would have anticipated.
If true this would be sure to cause controversy among the HHN die hards. Some would certainly feel its too soon to bring back Jack, while others would be elated to have him back. Personally, I'd love for any of the old characters to come back, especially after the last two years featured nothing in terms of original characters.
This rumor further makes since when you consider that at this years HHN, a jack vinyl figure was sold, despite him not being a part of the event this year. Looking back, this may have been a way for the HHN directors to gauge how popular Jack still was, and sales were not surprisingly through the roof.
its important to remember its still only December, so all rumors must be taken with a grain of salt. But past history has taught us that the first major rumors leaked usually tend to be true.
