Don't Forget! Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando Starts in ONE WEEK!

The scariest night of the year is a week away and we are here for the FEAR!

Halloween Horror Nights

We are HYPED for Halloween Horror Nights 33 and for those of you who are as well, we have a rundown of all the need-to-info for the event to make sure you’re screaming out of joy (or fear, of course) and not ’cause you’re missing out!

Beginning on August 30th and continuing the thrills to November 3rd, Halloween Horror Nights puts on scares every Wednesday through Sunday, including Halloween night itself. The event starts at 6:30 PM and runs until 2:00 AM.

As Halloween draws near, however, expect larger crowds and longer wait times, adding more fright to the event (those wait times can get pretty scary!)

Universal Orlando

You can choose between four different ticket types, as well as multi-day tickets to purchase for the event. This year will feature 10 haunted houses and 5 new scare zones!

Here’s a look at all the frightful fun you can experience.

Haunted Houses

Eternal Bloodlines

Say hello to the all-female Classic Universal Monsters Horror Nights House — Eternal Bloodlines! According to Universal, you’ll “Get caught in an epic battle as Saskia Van Helsing and the Bride of Frankenstein go up against Dracula’s daughter and her monstrous mavens.”

Insidious: The Further

Horror movie fans — get ready. Insidious has a house this year called Insidious: The Further…and the trailer gave us goosebumps! Universal said, “Enter The Further as demons try to ensnare you. The Red-Faced Demon will lure you into his lair. KeyFace will unlock your fears.”

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

The next big movie franchise is here! Ghostbusters is coming to Halloween Horror Nights. According to Universal, this is”A bone-chilling new specter, Garraka, has escaped from an ancient artifact. He’ll stop you cold with a whole army of ghosts. Try not to freeze in fear as you dodge spears of ice and he freezes people solid before your eyes. The Ghostbusters must team up to save the world from a second Ice Age.”

A Quiet Place

That’s right — the movie franchise A Quiet Place is coming to Halloween Horror Nights in 2024! Universal says, “Silence your screams if you want to survive the terrifying post-apocalyptic world, where creatures hunt down anyone who makes a sound.”

Triplets of Terror

The Barmy Triplets are having a birthday bash, and you’ve been invited. However, they celebrate by recreating their family’s murders, so needless to say, the gathering will be gory.

Monstruos: The Monsters of Latin America

Monstruos: The Monsters of Latin America will also make its debut at Halloween Horror Nights this year. This experience will have you guided by La Muerta. According to Universal, “You’ll be begging for piedad from these three terrifying legends: Tlahuelpuchi, La Lechuza and El Silbón.”

The Museum: Deadly Exhibits

Visit the new folklore museum exhibit, appropriately named, The Rotting Stone. Of course, something goes wrong during your visit. An evil will escape from the museum, “destroying everything in its path.”

Major Sweets Candy Factory

Visiting the Major Sweets Candy Factory might sound like a dream come true, but this is one field trip you might wish you hadn’t chaperoned. The deadly delicious treats here can turn kids into “sugar-fueled fiends.”

Goblin’s Feast

Stop for a while at the Goblin’s Feast Tavern and visit a goblin village where a huge and lavish feast is being prepared for goblins, orcs, hobgoblins, and witches. The main course is…YOU.

Slaughter Sinema 2

It’s time for a B-movie horror marathon at the Carey Drive-In. You’ll be able to scream your way “through scenes from creature features, grindhouse gore, spaghetti westerns, and more.” It sounds like you might be the star of these B-movies.

Scare Zones

Duality of Fear

Universal says, “As soon as you enter Halloween Horror Nights you must choose a path: the visceral horror of SINIST3R or the unearthly terror of SURR3AL.” We can’t wait to see how this plays out!

Swamp of the Undead

We can’t wait to check this one out! Universal promises, “In backwaters Louisiana, you unwittingly wander onto private property where you’re swamped by zombies borne from the bodies of other trespassers who were killed and dumped in a nearby bog.”

Torture Faire

Get ready for another Scare Zone! It’s a Renaissance faire…but something has gone wrong. According to Universal, you’ll “Brave the gloriously gory medieval torture devices ‘til you’re put out of your misery.”

Demon Queens

Universal describes this Scare Zone as such: “Get Caught in an otherwordly hellscape ripped from the darkest corners of your mind where four merciless queens loyal to SURR3AL rule.”

But Haunted Houses and Scarezones aren’t the only fun you can have at this iconic event. Exclusive merchandise items are available for purchase during the night. We got a look at the newest items for this year’s event including, for the first time, a Lil’ Boo Popcorn Bucket as well as an updated Chucky popcorn bucket that talks back to you when you speak!

And of course, that’s not all the event has to offer. Nightmare Fuel, the fiery spectacle featuring aerialists and fire performers who create a bone-chiling story alongside heart-pounding rock and electronica tunes, is putting on a new epic show called Nightmare Fuel: Nocturnal Circus.

Scary good food will also be available during the event, including the classic pizza fries of course, as well as other spooky-themed treats made exclusively for Halloween Horror Nights.
