Anyone find anything concrete here? I've found at least something on every hunt except this one. I have vague ideas on what things could mean but nothing concrete like in the other hunts.

I haven’t found much of anything. Noticed the 1993-2012 on the polar bear exhibit but couldn’t find anything that jumped out at me. It screams carnival to me and “around and around we go” seems to hint at roulette or “wheel of fortune.” The four white letters around the margins seem to anagram “HEAP” but I can’t differentiate between most of the other colors or they don’t seem to spell out anything. Connecting any of these things together has been difficult; I’m stumped, too!

I guess I'll just wait for clues. I don't know how you'd even begin the first part let alone a second part. This one must be either super steganography heavy or research heavy and I'm coming up blank on both of those approaches. Good luck all!

Then there's 1% left to consider 1992-2013...

Here is a better resolution of the image. If you have another image you would like to see in better detail, let me know. Everything you need to solve this is visible in the original PDF, but I understand wanting to see the best detail possible.

I've been looking at the haunted house and it is not a real location, or at least, it's not meant to be.
The image was created in October 2017 by Amanda Wells from Melbourne, Australië.
"But couldn't it be the photo that's flipped?" Not if you zoom in on the house number (1321 I believe).
"But couldn't this be the house we're supposed to be looking for?" Doubtfull. Why would FHH complicate the search by flipping the image? Also, while I found this image on several sites, I never came across an address.
So I conclude it's supposed to represent the idea of a haunted house, not a real world location.
Another fun little rabbit hole to go down is the number of ghosts...

Just to save you from a series of rabbit holes, yes, I used available images as a base for some of my drawings. But no, none of the actual places have anything to do with the hunt. Finding the originals will not help you solve the hunt. I'm just not that great an artist, so I used existing images for ideas!
