[ORIGINAL July 12]
Following the success of last year’s epic Hulu Animayhem offsite, Collider reports that they’re back, to bring fans even more animated mayhem at San Diego Comic-Con 2024, “perhaps” even bigger than before.
Fans will be able to step into the animated world of their favorite series Thursday-Sunday (11:30am-7pm Thursday; 9:30am-7pm Friday-Saturday; and 9:30am-5pm Sunday) of the con, back in the same location as last year (just behind the convention center), with plenty of references to Animayhem’s most beloved series, including Bob’s Burgers, The Simpsons, Futurama, and more.
You can get immersed in an animation-themed “factory” experience, complete with beloved characters woven into the factory’s machinery and making it all work. Once inside the factory, you’ll find a replica of Futurama‘s Slurm Factory complete with a life-size Slurm Queen for photo ops, and the nostalgic “Cutawayland Storage” celebrating 25 years of Family Guy with iconic cutaway gags brought to life (with plenty of photo ops there as well).
Continuing the animated adventure, fans will find the “LardLad Donut Factory” where Homer Simpson’s favorite sprinkled treats are created. Attendees can indulge in ready-made donuts (with suspiciously green icing that may be toxic waste). You’ll also get the chance to along with the end credits of Bob’s Burgers and receive a shareable video, take stress tests with Solar Opposites, or wield a katana in a Hit-Monkey themed challenge to win an SDCC exclusive set of pins.
American Dad fans can attempt to reassemble Roger in an intricate game of alien “Operation”, complete with a photo op with Roger’s golden turd.
For those looking to unwind, the Animayhem Factory includes a relaxation area styled after settings from The Great North, Krapopolis, and Grimsburg. Fans will get a view of the Tobin family’s cabin from The Great North, find an ancient Greek vending machine stocked with snacks, and discover a wall dedicated to true-crime fans with clues from detective Marvin Flute’s wall of mysteries from Grimsburg.
