Tonight’s the VERY first night of Halloween Horror Nights in Universal Orlando (and it’s sold out already for the grand opening)!

But, there’s plenty of time to experience the chills and thrills that await during the huge 30th anniversary. And, there’s even another mini feature happening outside of the parks over at the resorts for all you Halloween Horror Nights fans out there!
Universal’s Cabana Bay Resort is offering its first EVER Halloween Horror Nights event exclusive to guests staying at the hotels.

The Jack’d Up Experience is FREE for all Universal Resort guests, though Cabana Bay guests receive priority access. However, non-resort guests will not be able to participate!
First look at the Jack'd Up Experience at Universal's Cabana Bay! Free and resort guests (Cabana Bay guests get priority access), the walk through experience features photo ops and is a tribute to the HHN icon. #HHN30 pic.twitter.com/pJsNs266o0

The themed experience has a walk-through tribute to Jack the Clown…

…2 photo-ops, including Jack’s blender…

…and a puppet Jack…

…and even the opportunity to become one of Jack’s maniacs after you watch a short video from the host himself! He is the first Halloween Horror Nights icon, after all — he deserves the hype!

Overall, the Jack’d Up Experience isn’t TOO scary and more of a fun extra for fans! If you’re thinking about bringing your kids to Halloween Horror Nights, we recommend testing how your younger ones handle Jack’d Up Experience before taking them to the actual HHN event!

On top of the Jack’d Up area, the lobby bar at Cabana Bay will also be transformed to a Horror Icons Bar! Sounds frightfully fun, right?
