Quoted from Ty-Arnold:I heard it was Halloween, went gambling, came back, now what the he'll is going on? Is it Halloween with another title?
Yes, dual themed supposedly.
Quoted from Kyleman:Thank you God! Scooby doo theme sucked.my first John carpenter theme hopefully big trouble will be next.Scooby doo is too childish.Way to go spooky winner.
Your entitled to your wrong opinion. Many will disagree with you. It’s far from childish and it has been around for 52 years for a reason and still being made today.
If this dual theme is true then I hope that Soooky is upfront about it before ordering opens up. They should be transparent about both offerings for those that could be interested in both themes.
I think it was said that the possible 2nd theme is way more niche than Halloween! That would be a downer. If true then they should have announced that first and end on Halloween.

Pretty sure the other theme will be announced before they take orders. Spooky will not pull a bait and switch. No need to panic. They have said details are coming.

It’s either Huckle Berry Hound or the Twins... (no not those Twins Schwarzenegger & DeVito) these twins:

Quoted from Ty-Arnold:Dual theme like 2 themes together on 1 machine, or 2 different themes we can choose from?
Pretty sure it’s a separate game but with the same layout just a different theme. This has been done before so nothing new. Look up Shrek/ Family Guy and more recently Whoa Nellie/ Pabst Can Crusher / Primus….all are the same game game just a different theme. This is what Spooky could be doing…..will know for sure as they release more details….everyone is having fun trying to guess the possible second theme. Hell…for all we know it really could be 2 games with different layouts launched at once. Spooky does have increased capacity and they do relatively small runs so it’s possible. Will be interesting to see what they are doing.
Quoted from cait001:this thread is on drugs
I’d love a Stoner Pin based on some of these themes ...
Harold & Kumar
Cheech & Chong
Dude Where’s My Car
Half Baked
Pineapple Express
Dazed & Confused
Jay & Silent Bob
Even a Snoop Dogg theme could be amazing
a Snoop Dogg pin would work so well and it'd have a Martha Stewart cameo for sure and be goofy as hell
Was looking at the revealed illustrators work and saw that he has done He-Man illustrations. Could the family friendly theme be that? Maybe too late in Chuck's childhood to be relevant to him I guess.
Totally a different direction. What about a Godzilla killer. I know, Charlie is not one to hold a grudge, but with Stern rumored to come out with the stolen Godzilla…maybe one of his nemesis. Just a thought.
When I first heard of Spooky pinball I thought to myself. “ Well I hope they do true horror pins like Halloween, Friday the 13th and Evil Dead”.
Hopefully this trend continues. Great theme Spooky!
Quoted from Ty-Arnold:I heard it was Halloween, went gambling, came back, now what the he'll is going on? Is it Halloween with another title?
Ditto..I heard Halloween, saw Halloween on their site, but missed the dual theme thing....where is this called out ( thread is crazy)
“I do love a good joke and this is the best ever: a joke on Pinside.
But there's a better reason...you don't really know much about Halloween...you thought no further than the strange custom of having your children wear masks and go out begging for candy. It was the start of the year in our old Celtic lands, and we'd be waiting...in our houses of wattles and clay.
The barriers would be down, you see, between the real and the unreal, and the dead might be looking in...to sit by our fires of turf. Halloween...the festival of Samhain. The last great one took place three thousand years ago, when the hills ran red...with the blood of animals and children.
To us, it was a way of controlling our environment. It's not so different now, it's time again. In the end, we don't decide these things, you know, the planets do. They're in alignment, and it's time again. The world's going to change tonight, doctor, I'm glad you'll be able to watch it.
And… Happy Halloween.”
ADAE4F2C-1A4B-47E8-A2E6-46E4E5C0EDA1 (resized).jpegSecond theme is most likely animated. If Spooky did their homework, we will be seeing one of these :
Looney Tunes
Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Justice League
Simpsons Treehouse of Horror
Batman Animated

That’s what a lot of us thought and I think we will see those types of games over time. But they don’t want to be that predictable with every release. It’s no secret Charlie does like horror but there is a broad range of dark themes/dark comedy and not just slasher themes. Looking forward to future titles. Tons of great themes others have been mentioned so there is no shortage of themes we could see.
Add Batman: The Animated Series to the top of that list...right next to Simpsons treehouse of horror *which was my idea been begging Stern for that for a few years.

No....not really. Sales haven’t gone live yet.

Agree with you and have added it to list. Hopefully, we can narrow it down further.

these are 2 excellent choices. I think Simpsons HOH would be amazing and instant by unseen for me.

I'd assume most of these would be out of Spooky's price range or reach, ATHF being the obvious exception.

Put Futurama on the top of that list please
Quoted from Rascal_H:I hope there’s a few more pages of people wishlisting ridiculous themes. Never gets old.
I know, this is stupid. Just wait til they announce it. Why are we guessing at something we dont know the answer to? A Fish called Wanda??
You are definitely in the right place for it. This IS a theme speculation thread.
Quoted from Rascal_H:I hope there’s a few more pages of people wishlisting ridiculous themes. Never gets old.
Why have you been here checking in for months on end and guessing the next theme? It’s what we do here, lol.

If they hadn't just announced a game, I say have at it. Throw out all the shit that makes zero sense.
Are you lost? They’ve announced one of two themes...and ....there will be more in the future. This IS the NEXT spooky thread haha, c’mon.

Halloween just announced but anyway what’s everyone think about Fraggle Rock?
Y'all are looking past a potential clue offered in the CE feature list: "Custom Vein Powdercoat"
Halloween is more a slasher movie than blood n guts, so what else would lend itself to veins in the powdercoat? Could they be dualing it with Carpenter's The Thing? Or even better, an EHOH style game with multiple Carpenter movies?
