If you have an inclining to be scared, then you should check out Halloween Horror Nights 2019 if you are near Universal Studios Orlando! It was announced last week that Universal Studios has released the tickets for this bone-rattling event! Each year provides new haunts and experiences that are sure to leave you startled. If you are trying to pick a great time to visit Universal Studios, then this is it!
What is Halloween Horror Nights?
This is a set of events scheduled through the Fall season to induce bone-chilling fear as you enter some of the most terrifying areas from movie history or general fear- including legendary Universal Monsters. Frankenstein, the Wolfman, and Dracula are just a few who will make an appearance. The big news this year is the inclusion of Stranger Things for Halloween Horror Nights 2019. There are many different haunted houses to choose from based on your own fears (Queue maniacal laughter). There will even be a haunted house to invoke fear of water and of what lurks in the deep.
These haunted houses will put your local houses to shame with the level of emersion! Each year Universal Studios changes the haunted houses with either new themes or taking bigger horror movies/TV shows. The level of detail in each of the houses will have you grabbing the person next to you for comfort. It is as if you are stepping directly into the middle of these movies. There are also scare zones that can be walked through without going into the haunted houses. During the event, there will also be live entertainment. One thing to remember is that this can be very intense and should be avoided by anyone under the age of 13.
