Quoted from Mad_Dog_Coin_Op:Does anybody think the reason why Spooky likes H78 is because they might be considering a follow up game? Maybe a H82. It would be totally a different theme (no Michael Myers) and right up Spooky’s alley.
No. They like H78 because they are horror movie fans. H78 is commonly used to clarify since there are three different movies in the franchise all simply named "Halloween". That isn't a problem for the pinball. Now if next year they give us one based on the Rob Zombie remake, then H78 would make sense.
