Looking down Production Central, more trusses for lighting have been installed near the former Shrek 4-D building and Despicable Me Minion Mayhem.

According to Horror Night Nightmares’ speculation map, this area should be home to a traditional Halloween-themed scare zone.

Over in San Francisco, something more sinister has appeared in the form of a ancient-looking stage, complete with a cauldron.

The speculation map has the area listed as a potential Coven Witches scare zone. Could this be where the witches practice their dark magic?

And that cauldron looks awfully big… big enough to possibly hold a human sacrifice.

Given that there are stairs nearby, the sacrifice might just be picked out of the crowd.

Over by the former Fear Factor Live stage, black curtains have been hung up, likely for a new production of Halloween Nightmare Fuel.

Things seem to be in the early stages, as no set dressing has been added.

Finally, Nettlewoods Cemetery is looking fuller over in Hollywood with the addition of this crypt and mausoleum.

Right now, there aren’t any markers noting the dead. Are they awaiting new arrivals?

Meanwhile, the mausoleum entrance seems like the perfect place for a Scareactor to spring out of.

Peeking inside, we found a group of speakers.
