We may or may not have a countdown going till Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando.
Halloween Horror Nights runs from August 28th to November 1st, and we’re ready to enter this year’s houses, try the exclusive food, and get scared. Universal just announced another house coming to this year’s line-up, and the more that get released, the more excited we’re getting.
MADLANDS: Caged Cannibals is coming! On Instagram, Universaid said, “In this haunted house, a defunct zoo is now the deadly domain of warring cannibal factions that have taken their animal instincts to extremes. They’re territorial. They’re hungry. And you’re lunch.” Yikes!
The other houses coming include H.R. Bloodengutz Presents: A Halloween Fright-Tacular…
…Sinners…
…and Stranger Things Season 5.
It will also have an overall theme of Jack & Oddfellow: Chaos & Control, where Jack the Clown and Dr. Oddfellow have teamed up with one goal in mind: to terrorize.
Tickets are already on sale, and if this sounds like something you want to check out for yourself, we highly recommend grabbing them early. Halloween Horror Nights is only on select nights, and it can get busy, so you might even want to visit more than one day.
This is just the start of what’s to come, too. There are usually 10 houses with a handful of houses dedicated to well-known movies and characters, like this year’s Sinners and Stranger Things Season 5 house, and some that are original concepts designed by Universal’s Creative Team. That’s the houses like H.R. Bloodenguts and MADLANDS.
We’re so excited for Halloween Horror Nights to start and to take you along with us. Make sure you keep following DFB for more theme park news.
