Inside Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando, you’ll find hair-raising, spine-tingling thrills from the worlds of the living, the dead, the in-between and even the Upside Down.

Here’s what you can expect during Halloween Horror Nights in 2024.

Halloween Horror Nights Haunted Houses Orlando

Here are Universal Orlando’s officially announced Haunted Houses.

  • Fallout - Face your fears in post-apocalyptic LA, devastated by nuclear war, based on the hit show and game franchise “Fallout.” You’ll travel into the vaults and be attacked by raiders alongside Lucy. You’ll escape to the wasteland and confront the bounty hunter, The Ghoul. You’ll even encounter Maximus with the Brotherhood of Steel and see T-60 power armor.
  • Jason Universe - Evil Doesn’t Stay Dead. The iconic horror villain Jason Voorhees is coming for you. Step into his terrifying world, from his sinister shack in the woods to the summer camp where it all began.
  • Five Nights at Freddy’s - Get ready for the night watch at a creepy, abandoned pizzeria, where nothing is what it seems and possessed animatronics are lurking.
  • The Horrors of The Wyatt Sicks - Go head-to-head with The Wyatt Sicks as they lure you through the ominous doorway to their shadowy realm. You’re about to meet your match.
  • Terrifier - Try your luck against Art the Clown in the Terrifier funhouse. You’ll witness his grotesque handiwork of torture and be exposed to the spatter of his victims. It’s a whole new level of gore!
  • Hatchet and Chains: Demon Bounty Hunters - In this Old West town, all hell is breaking loose. Red-hot lava demons are trying to possess everyone, melting everything in their path. Your only hope: Hatchet and Chains with their mystical weapons.
  • Dolls: Let’s Play Dead - You’re about to become doll-sized and witness the unnatural creations of a twisted little girl. You’ll be hunted by burnt fashion dolls, toys she’s melded together and undead horrors in her dollhouse.
  • Grave of Flesh - Welcome to your funeral, where things are about to go from bad to worse. You’ll enter your grave and then the underworld, where flesh-eaters who feed on the dead will hunt you for all eternity.
  • Gálkn: Monsters of the North - In a remote northern village, a wicked being rises from the dead, bringing a horde of monsters and demons from the fjords to wreak havoc on the townspeople. Try to escape the belly of the beast.
  • El Artista: A Spanish Haunting - In 19th century Spain, a tortured artist moves to an isolated country manor to seek inspiration. Instead, the art comes alive and possesses him. You’re about to be part of the permanent exhibition.
These walk-through haunted house mazes pop up in any available space throughout Universal. Each haunted house takes about five minutes to walk through, and you’ll typically be given access in small groups.

Throughout Universal Orlando you’ll encounter various Scare Zones. These are between attractions, so keep your eyes peeled! These pop-up creatures prowl the streets to elicit reactions from even the most stoic of guests. Watch out because they’ll appear where you least expect!
