It was indeed a bit more intense. The first couple of seasons of HHA were aimed at an older teenage audience. That's why the first two seasons have a lot of scary and somewhat adult situations. They toned those down for the subsequent seasons and the remakes (first Das Haus Anubis, and after that House of Anubis).

I also really hope they bring a Noa-like character into HoA. She was one of my favourite characters and I liked her more than Mara ^^ However, Eddie's storyline kinda seems like it's based on Noa's (with him being the Osirian and Noa being the Dutch Chosen One).
