**Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights Unleashes Terrifying New Houses, Including ‘Terrifier’ and ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s’**
Orlando, FL – Halloween Horror Nights (HHN) at Universal Orlando is back, and this year’s lineup promises a terrifyingly immersive experience. The event, running on select nights through November 2nd, features intellectual properties such as “Five Nights at Freddy’s” and “Terrifier” as haunted houses. One horror fan recounted their experience inside, highlighting the visceral impact of the “Terrifier” house, complete with gory recreations and unsettling sensory details.
The houses are not just a visual spectacle, but also a full sensory one, between the questionable scents and choice of wet vs. dry path (I chose wet, and let’s just say I’m glad I brought that poncho).
“Terrifier” actor David Howard Thornton who plays Art the Clown, feels the Terrifier houses in both Orlando and Hollywood are tastefully done around Universal’s rules, but still pretty gory overall and pay solid tribute to the Damien Leone-directed franchise.
The “Five Nights at Freddy’s” house taps into nostalgia for childhood visits to places like Chuck E. Cheese. The event feels like it has ushered itself into a new era of being able to perfectly straddle the old and the new. With expanded Tribute Store to counteract the claustrophobic feeling of a couple of this year’s houses.
Tickets for Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights – running on select nights now through Nov. 2 in Orlando, and from Sept. 4 through Nov. 2 in Hollywood – are available at universalorlando.com and universalstudioshollywood.com, respectively.
