Get ready to scream! Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood have unveiled additional spine-chilling haunted houses for this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Adding to the excitement, one of the most iconic horror franchises of all time—”The Exorcist”—is getting its own terrifying haunted house based on the all-new film “The Exorcist: Believer.” Universal’s legacy of iconic cinematic monsters will be featured at the event in a house called “Universal Monsters: Unmasked.” Universal has also revealed more information about its previously announced Chucky haunted house. Let’s take a closer look at the bone-chilling details! Additionally, Universal Orlando has unveiled its complete lineup for Halloween Horror Nights, including original haunted houses, scare zones, and enterainment.
The Exorcist: Believer
Universal Pictures’ newest film “The Exorcist: Believer,” coming to theaters Friday, October 13, will “unleash an entirely new level of terror to Halloween Horror Nights,” says Universal. You will be transported to a bustling Haitian street market, where the purchase of a peculiar doll causes the opening of a demonic portal, the awakening of sinister spirits, and the disappearance of two 12-year-old girls in the U.S. Though the children are found a few days later, they have no recollection of what took place, and they soon begin to exhibit unsettling behavior. Anyone who comes in contact with them is at risk of losing their soul.
“The Exorcist: Believer” will be featured at both Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood.
Universal Monsters: Unmasked
“Universal Monsters: Unmasked” delves deep into the infamous Catacombs of Paris, where millions of skeletal remains and sinister secrets fill every corner. Within the catacombs, iconic creatures such as The Phantom of the Opera, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Dr. Jekyll and his alternate personality Mr. Hyde, and The Invisible Man lie in wait, seeking vengeance against visitors after the opening of the Catacombs to public visitation. Filled with rage, these desperate fiends hunt trespassers in the twisted tunnels, where the screams of intruders go unheard.
This all-new haunted house is coming to Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood.
Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count
Inspired by the USA and SYFY series and classic films, “Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count” will feature Chucky himself as the star of his very own haunted house. Chucky has been embroiled in the agony of disrespect, so he begins his pursuit to turn his haunted house into a living slaughterhouse, killing everyone who enters.
You can come face-to-face with Chucky in this experience at Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood.
