Ripley’s Times Square Hosting a Scary Scavenger Hunt for Annabelle Dolls
13 dolls will be hidden throughout the iconic Times Square museum.
The marketing campaign for David F. Sandberg’s upcoming Annabelle: Creation (read our review) has been pretty awesome so far. For the UK release, fans will be able to take part in an immersive experience that will allow them to babysit Annabelle herself.
Here in the US? Well, Ripley’s wants you to hunt for her!
In anticipation of Annabelle: Creation, coming to theaters on August 11, Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Times Square will be hosting a scavenger hunt for 13 of the sought-after, possessed Annabelle dolls created by Mezco Toys.
From 5pm until midnight on Friday, August 4, visitors to Ripley’s can embark on their hunt for the 13 dolls hidden throughout the iconic Times Square museum. All participants will receive a $10 discount off their admission to Ripley’s.
Once a participant finds all 13, they’ll win various prizes provided by Warner Brothers including screening tickets, swag, collector items and they’ll be eligible to win one of the official Annabelle dolls which are sold-out nationwide!
Ripley’s is located on 234 West 42nd Street, New York, NY 10036.
While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
