With Michael Myers last appearing at Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights in 2014 and Universal Studios Hollywood’s event just last year, he will reappear at both destinations for this year’s Halloween Horror Nights event.
Titled as Halloween: Hell Comes to Haddonfield, the new house will be based on the 1981 Halloween II film, centering around Michael Myers’ younger sister — Laurie Strode, who is at the Haddonfield Memorial Hospital.
According to Michael Aiello, director of creative development for Universal Orlando, guests will experience the final scene from Universal Orlando’s 2014 haunted house and immediately walk in-between the homes of Haddonfield. They’ll be attacked by Michael Myers throughout the house before seeking refuge within the hospital featured in Halloween II. Aiello says they’ll be recreating all of the iconic scenes from the second film, including Myers’ fiery “end.”
Universal Studios Hollywood’s version will be the similar to Orlando’s version.
About Halloween II
After failing to kill stubborn survivor Laurie and taking a bullet or six from former psychiatrist Dr. Sam Loomis, Michael Myers (Dick Warlock) has followed Laurie to the Haddonfield Memorial Hospital, where she’s been admitted for Myers’ attempt on her life. The institution proves to be particularly suited to serial killers, however, Myers cuts, stabs and slashes his way through hospital staff to reach his favorite victim.
Official statement:
Fans may have thought it was over, but he’s still out there. This fall, Michael Myers will return to Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights in an all-new maze inspired by the second film in the classic horror series, “Halloween.”
The iconic horror film sequel continues the story of a masked killer, Michael Myers, as he stalks an entire town and relentlessly pursues his victims. Now, his focus turns to guests as Universal joins forces with Compass International Pictures to bring the haunting film’s most suspenseful and terrifying moments to life at Halloween Horror Nights.
At both Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood, Michael Myers returns in Halloween: Hell Comes to Haddonfield— a maze that’s bigger and filled with more menacing scare-actors than the original, top-rated “Halloween” maze. It will begin with the final scene from “Halloween,” where Michael Myers is presumed dead after falling from a bedroom window — only to disappear from the ground. Guests will dodge Myers’ lethal knife at every turn as they step into iconic scenes from the film — all culminating in a horrifying finale.
