Connections today (game #598) - hint #2 - group answers

The answers to today's Connections, game #598, are YELLOW: OWNED BORE, HAD, 
HELD, POSSESSED GREEN: THINGS YOU MIGHT DO IN YOUR SLEEP DREAM, DROOL, SNORE, 
TALK BLUE: MOVIE SERIES WITH 2024 RELEASES ALIEN, GLADIATOR, VENOM, WICKED 
PURPLE: ____ HOUSE FULL, GINGERBREAD, HAUNTED, WHITE My rating: Moderate My 
score: 2 mistakes 

After Mondays SEEN IN THE SHINING category I momentarily convinced myself 
that there was a group of words today linked by another horror classic, The 
Exorcist maybe?  POSSESSED, WICKED, DROOL all seemed vaguely connected. But 
then I thought if Connections was doing that theyd at least have Priest and 
Vomit. 

Having seen none of the MOVIE SERIES WITH 2024 RELEASES I bagged the Blue 
group by just thinking they all seemed linked somehow, before spying the 
HOUSE connection to FULL, GINGERBREAD, WHITE, and HAUNTED. 

As for Yellow  Im still annoyed about BORE and in the aftermath 
Merriam-Webster is not helping. Back to school for me. 

How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below. Yesterday's NYT 
Connections answers (Tuesday, 28 January, game #597) YELLOW: FUNNY PERSON

PURPLE: SPEED ___ BUMP, CHESS, DEMON, DIAL What is NYT Connections? 

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the 
New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share 
something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green 
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually 
very difficult. 

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as 
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, 
you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing 
room. 

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there 
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For 
instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise 
the answers. 

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
