Universal Halloween Horror Nights Unveils Even More Haunted Houses
The countdown has begun for Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando Resort with all-new terrifying haunted houses
The terror kicks off at Universal Orlando Resort on Friday, Sept. Sept. 1. Below is a sneak peek at what guests can expect:
The Exorcist: Believer
“The Exorcist: Believer” haunted house will unleash an entirely new level of terror on Halloween Horror Nights.
In this new chapter, guests will be transported to a bustling street market in Haiti, where an innocent purchase of a strange folk doll with three eyes leads to the opening of a demonic portal, the awakening of sinister spirits, and the subsequent disappearance of two 12-year-old girls in the U.S. After the girls begin to exhibit unsettling behavior, it soon becomes clear that only an exorcism can save them—and everyone who comes in contact with them, including unwitting guests, is suddenly at risk of losing their souls.

Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count
Inspired by the hit USA & SYFY series and cult classic films, “Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count” casts this killer doll as the star of his very own haunted house for the first time.
A true sadistic killer, Chucky has been mired in the agony of disrespect he feels from his peers at not being taken seriously.
Thus begins his quest to turn his haunted house into a living slaughterhouse by killing every person who enters.
Universal Monsters: Unmasked
Lurking 60 feet beneath the bustling streets of the City of Lights, the dank Catacombs of Paris house a much darker secret.
The all-new haunted house “Universal Monsters: Unmasked” takes guests down into the infamous burial grounds where every corner and crevice overflows with millions of skeletal remains and even more sinister secrets.
Deep within the Catacombs, Universal’s most notorious creatures—The Phantom of the Opera, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Dr. Jekyll and his deranged alternate personality Mr. Hyde, and Dr. Jack Griffin, aka The Invisible Man—also lie in wait as they bide their time and seek vengeance against guests after the opening of the Catacombs to public visitation.
Guests can enjoy the all-new disturbingly entertaining show, “Nightmare Fuel Revenge Dream,” which features a new dreamer confronting the creature that’s been turning her dreams into nightmares.
While shopping the latest Halloween Horror Nights merchandise and treats in an all-new Tribute Store, guests can enter a mysterious NYC Comic Book Shop and experience the “Tribute to Terror” by stepping into the pages of this original, terrifying, horror comic book.
Guests can enjoy a drink at the Red Coconut Club as it will once again transform to the Dead Coconut Club donning a new theme and menu.
When guests want to take a bite out of the horror, they can enjoy a monstrous menu of all-new food & beverage items, including Bloody Campground Poutine, El Pastor Torta, and Sour Apple Pie Funnel Fries, in addition to returning fan favorites like Pizza Fries.
New this year, Peacock’s Halloween Horror Bar will feature themed libations within an ominous nightclub vibe, photo opportunities and more.
For those dying to experience this year’s “killer” food and beverage before the event even opens, Taste of Terror will offer guests an exclusive preview of select items that will be featured at Halloween Horror Nights select nights from Aug. 10 through Aug. 26.
Universal Orlando hotel guests can stay near the fear and receive exclusive benefits, including Early Park Admission to the theme parks during the day and access to priority event entrance to Halloween Horror Nights at night as well as complimentary transportation to the theme parks and Universal CityWalk.
Vacation packages are available that include one-night admission to the event, Universal hotel accommodations, and admission to all three of Universal Orlando’s thrilling theme parks.
And for the first time ever, the fog has spread to all eight of Universal Orlando’s hotels with exclusive activations and experiences for hotel guests inspired by this year’s event, including Universal’s Cabana Bay Beach Resort’s exclusive “Chucky’s Twisted Playground” photo illusion experience based on the USA and SYFY series, plus, the Universal Monsters Gallery of Legends lobby photo opportunities in all other hotel lobbies and more.
Guests also can purchase single-night tickets or the popular Frequent Fear and Rush of Fear Passes, plus event upgrades like Express Pass, R.I.P. Tour, and the daytime Behind the Screams: Unmasking the Horror Tour.
