This is a set I have been waiting for personally. I love this set. I can tell you that I have ordered two already. One for putting away and one for putting in my foyer for Halloween. This set is an instant classic.

Haunted House 10228 for $179.99

I hope it comes back, these lucky/greedy owners of HH are asking way to much for one !!  

They want all of these for one HH !!!!   Getting it ready to ship........

 

 

So Halloween (All Hallows' Eve) has deep Gaelic roots, but seems to predominantly take place in the US. What is Europe doing with all the HH? Seems like the US would have more of a need for Monster Fighting Fighters than other places in the world. Just saying.

Are you sending someone all of those sets for 1 Haunted House? The deal I offered you was much better.

I'm confused. I get the connection a lot of you are making with HH and Halloween, but where does it say that the Monster Fighters theme is a "Halloween theme"? As far as I am aware, scary movies, books, video games, toys, etc. are kind of big... everywhere.

You think they are popular in Romania?

Its partly due to the fact that b/c we are close to the Halloween holiday many people are aytracted to HH.

But yes. Monsters are everywhere! !

Sure but the thinking is they will sell more during Halloween. Same reason stores stock up on more scary movies this time of year. They sell more. Even though they sell scary movies all year round as well.

I was told the same by a sales rep on monday

unbelievable but yes :-(

I get that, but several people have now questioned why it is popular in countries that do not celebrate Halloween like we do here in the U.S. (absurdly). Simply because the set is awesome, Halloween or not.

 

Now I just really really regret missing the train on it. Want one for the kiddos.

 you guys need to check your sarcasm detectors.......

HH popped up on target for a couple minutes tonight

Did you manage to get one? I saw it like 10 minutes ago. Button was still red but it kept returning me back to 0. Tried 3 browsers nothing, eventually button went back to gray. Grr. I keep missing on it. 

I missed it. Had the same issue you had and even tried the target app with no luck

LEGO Shop at Home Europe: 'Call to check product availability', so I'm calling now, but I'm in the queue (surprising).

 

Edit: I called them and they say they are out of stock and its done. He said my best chance is to look at a local toyshop. So.. this is it, the end of the Haunted House (at least in Europe).

You can still find Some in local stores here in The Netherlands.

Funny how the answers from European LEGO Shop at Home representatives vary. I am glad to hear at least in the Netherlands, halloween is as important as in Belgium.

That's true. I also know a toystore where they have some on the shelfs.. it's in an area where not many investors are. Now, lucky me I'm on holiday this weekend just only 15 km of this place so I will pick those up if they are are still there.

 

I already have 7 pieces HH at this moment, but you can never have enough. I also have one on backorder from last monday and have confirmation for it, so that one will probably ship (Lego employee confirmed this). I need to add 2 more, making a total of 10 pieces and then I'm more than satisfied. I'm only half a year in this business and got the beginners luck of just buying HH instead of GE, pure due to ignorance :-P

I missed it too. Always a little too late......

UPDATE : this seems to be search issue on the web site.  maybe the web site admins and devs are updating inventory or the search function.  My phone has the same search error and i'm using a different network for internet access than my laptop.

 

semi-interesting stuff at the US shop@home lego site. 

 

while 10228 displays when navigating to it using the Exclusive link, the set no longer appears when searching "10228" or "Haunted House".

 

i remember other sets behaving the same before they were retired. just forgot which ones.  it might have been the FB, UCS B-Wing, and / or The Zombies.   Anyone remember?
