HHN 2024 Houses 9 and 10

Our routine this year was starting at the back of the bark as always and working our way to the front.  This was usually the order

1 - Goblin's Feast

2 - Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines

3). Slaughter Sinema 2

4). The Museum: Deadly Exhibits

5). Major Sweets Candy Factory

6). Triplets of Terror

7). Insidious: The Further

8). Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

9). A Quiet Place

10). Monstrous: Monsters of Latin America

THE COUNTDOWN

 These bottom two houses didn't take much thought.  I think to most people these houses may have pushed the boundaries, but for my sensitive self, they over-stepped them.  

Here they are....

10). Monstrous: Monsters of Latin America

           The house features three monster legends - Tiahuelpuchi, La Lechuza, and El Sibon.

         The first room, a small cemetery, was innocent enough, but upon entering the second room, you see a mother standing next to a baby carriage saturated in blood and screaming for help.  As if that image wasn't bad enough, in the next room you encounter the creepy monster munching on the "baby".  A couple more visions of blood-soaked baby beds and I had had enough.  

       But it didn't end there because the second monster is apparently nothing more than a pig butcher.  Pig parts everywhere including pigs that been cut in half hanging from the ceiling. 

      So because I am not a huge fan of baby killing (and eating) or pig killing...this house was the definitive bottom for me.

9). Triplets of Terror

          The story of this house introduces us to the Barmy Family  on March 3, 1984 who were having a birthday party for their triplets, Melody, Harmony, and Junior, who are turning 9.   Instead, the triplets slaughtered their entire family.  The triplet killers seek to recreate their family's murder every 10 years.  This particular year of 2024, they are preparing to recreate the scene in Cradleton, Pennsylvania.

      While I like the backstory and, overall, this was not a terrible house, there was a dog killing and that was enough for me to hate it. A dog killing is bad enough, but to have a room where you hear the dog whimpering, bones cracking, and then see the dead dog on top of the washing machine - NOT FOR ME thank you!
