Quoted from Lermods:Will these be at expo and when will they start to ship. Premium first?
Looks like LE's are shipping first. Going on the line next week. I was told I would have mine in 2-3 weeks.
Quoted from Fizz:I wonder how 'Jump jive & wail" and "Shout" will be integrated into the game. Could be really fun. As long as it's done well.
Looks like "Jump, Jive & Wail" plays during a Gar-goil "mode". (See game play video.)
Quoted from rlslick:Is there a flying bat around 2:23/2:24 on the backboard behind the house? How would that be done (small DMD?)...or am I just seeing things?? Game looks amazing!
Iceman44, personal thanks! I may have purchased your passed on SLE. I was told they were all spoken for as of yesterday. Got the call this afternoon, said what the hell, why not! can’t wait!!!
I think you're seeing things. Are you seeing the reflection of the turning turret?
The Insider Podcast with Greg Freres talking about the art, play field features, display integration and modes makes me even more excited for this game than I was before. This is going to be one awesome machine!
Quoted from jonesjb:Does the house diverted go to the ramps or orbits (or both)? It looks like orbits from the video, but have been reading ramps.
The ball is sent either to the left orbit or the pop bumpers.
Quoted from jonesjb:Yes but on the podcast Stern says it goes to a ramp to return to the flipper.
The video doesn't support that, but I guess we'll find out for sure Wednesday.
Quoted from Daditude:I can't wait to play it!
I fell in love with EATPM when I was 16 working at Hurst Bowl. Knew nothing about pinball from 1995 until 2017 when I bought my first machine, an EATPM. Fell in love with SS at Tornado Terry's. I have been waiting for this machine since I found out about it. Said it would be my first NIB purchase, and it is! I am so stoked! Now I just need to find a decent SS.
Quoted from BigT:If I remember correctly “It’s a Wonderful Life” is also one of those stories. One of the major 3 networks was looking to fill air air around the holidays and didn’t want to spend money on producing a show, some staffer saw “It’s a wonderful Life” had lapse and the rest is history. I am sure that someone on here can fill in the details to correct me.
Just summarizing here... According to Wikipedia, there was a lapse in copyright due to a clerical error, but in 1993 the copy right was re-established. NBC (since 1996) has the license to air the film. Paramount now owns the rights to the film.
Quoted from Pinsrgrt:What’s the best price anyone has gotten on an LE? All in tax, shipping etc? Seems like all I am coming across are all over $10k all in.
Quoted from GamerRick:Call Automated Services:
$9,599.00. They still have some.

You might also try Zach at flipnout, though I don't know if he has any left.
Quoted from PiperPinball:Game looks great. I'm in on SLE.
However, is anyone else concerned about the Crypt Kicker (VUK) current height? (check it out on the video at 2:45)
Given the distance it might damage the pf over time.....I have some possible mod fixes/enhancement ideas to make this really sweet!
I'll be checking to make sure there is mylar in front of the targets.
Quoted from Mad_Dog_Coin_Op:... There are no drop targets in Party Monsters or Scared Stiff ...
There are drop targets in EATPM: the JAM targets.
Quoted from wayinla:Do we just go to Dead Flip’s YouTube channel to see the reveal?
No. Go to twitch.tv/deadflip

Quoted from Robertstone0407:Played my LE today. I think everyone needs to calm.down trust me this game is gonna be great. The gameplay is early but great. It has early code but the core thats there is killer
Congrats on getting your machine! Makes me even more anxious!
Quoted from jonesjb:I’m trying too. Crypt details? Anyone?
jonesjb The crypt has three states: 1) Gate, 2) Scoop, 3) Dead Head

Quoted from FtrMech:Yep, same with mine...
Yeah. My turret only turned during a ball search. Wouldn't turn in diagnostics, either.
Quoted from CVeRiTy:Odd, my roof turns in diagnostics to all 4 locations. Via the diagnostic screen specifically designed to test the roof.
Well, crap. There must be something wrong with my turret. It did light up, however, when I got to the Attic Party last night. I'll have to check it out along with my lockdown bar button which quit working. Fun.
Quoted from rvdv:Thank you
That’s new to me
The button will also plunge the ball unless disabled in settings. Both of those (start & plunge) I turned off once I leaned over the machine (GOTG) and launched a ball prematurely.
Quoted from Mogg:Mine should be shipping soon, I have to pick up. Does anyone know if I can load it ‘in box’ into the back of a pickup bed with canopy, or does this need to be unboxed prior?
Thanks
If the opening to the truck bed is more than 32", it should fit in the box.
Quoted from jfh:What do owners think of the sound? In the streams I’ve seen it sounds very repetitive/ monotonous. Is that just my imagination?
Just remember the code is still being developed. Believe me, there is a lot of stuff missing. What's there is great!
Quoted from FtrMech:So, I am noticing, with .84 istalled, at the end of a game the music doesn't stop....just keeps repeating.
Yeah. It's been going non-stop. LOL

Did another video tonight. Nothing special. Once again, my last game was the best. Started Gappy Angry, but didn't get to the multiball stage. I can't wait to see what the next code update will involve.
Quoted from GamerRick:Awesome the new code adds attract light show and control power settings that were missing looks like they’re getting on this machine fast. I’m downloading now can’t wait to finally see the attract lights
There still isn't an attract light show.
Here's my latest video with the new code. These are my first plays after updating. I think I caught all the additions. Not playing for score, just for discovery.
Quoted from Peanuts:Thanks a lot for your videos of Elvira's House of Horrors. Delivery in France is still far away from now. Your videos permit us to see the enhancements of the code, versions after versions. Please keep it up.
Thanks for saying that. I really appreciate it!
Quoted from jfh:The following sales page seems to indicate that there is an official topper and shooter coming. Any one have any details?
https://pinballandmore.com/elviras-house-of-horrors-premium-pinball-machine/
Optional Upgrades:
–Elvira’s House of Horrors Backbox Topper – TBD

If they do offer one, I'm in. I just doubt it will be as cool as BKSOR's topper, though.

Quoted from pinballfan2000:Does anybody know what song plays during House Party mode?
"Shout"
Quoted from Rdoyle1978:What’s the current situation with the skill shot? I replaced my ball guides but I feel like now I am NEVER getting the award, even when I seem to get the ball in there .. what gives? The game seems to recognize when there’s a ball back there, because it will fire it out from the cellar when necessary. Is it not workign in .93, or did I accidentally screw up an opto or something ?
Put the game in switch edges test and drop a ball through the back door to make sure the correct switches are registering. We had a discussion in the owner's thread and found a couple connections reversed.
Quoted from pinballfan2000:If super dead head is not in code yet, where you heard about super dead head?
It's on the playfield.
The current dead heads are: Aunt Surly, Sgt. Jar Head. Sir Normus Cranium. Uncle Bolt Head. Chuck Chowda Head Mummy Dearest, and Sunny Beach Head.
