We got our second house announcement! The Haunting of Hill House is coming to Halloween Horror Nights.
According to Universal, we’ll see iconic scenes and characters from the series, such as the infamous Red Room, the bent-necked lady, the creature from the basement, and “Tall Man” William Hill.
“I have loved Halloween Horror Nights for so long,” said Flanagan, Creator, Director and Executive Producer of “The Haunting of Hill House.” “Some of my favorite memories of Halloween were made at Universal Studios, screaming and laughing with my friends. It is such an honor to be included among such fantastic Haunts, and I’m so glad that fans will be able to walk the halls of Hill House this Halloween. This is – without a doubt – one of the coolest things that’s ever happened to us at Intrepid. We are so excited to visit the Red Room again – we hope to see you all there!”
“It’s a nightmare come true to bring Netflix’s “The Haunting of Hill House” to life for our guests this year at ‘Halloween Horror Nights,’” said Charles Gray, Senior Show Director for Entertainment Creative Development at Universal Orlando Resort. “The show brought true horror to the masses, similar to what we’ve provided our guests at this event for nearly 30 years – Hill House is a perfect fit for “Halloween Horror Nights” as it enters a new decade of fear.”
“Mike Flanagan has elevated the horror genre with his supernatural thriller, ‘The Haunting of Hill House,’” said John Murdy, Executive Producer of “Halloween Horror Nights” at Universal Studios Hollywood. “We continuously challenge ourselves to raise the bar with each maze we create, and we look forward to creating a unique experience for our guests that combines both the psychological and visceral twists from the series. The goal is to make our guests feel as if they are walking in the footsteps of the Crain family, re-living all the horrors that they experienced.”
Halloween Horror Nights: Jack is Back and Tickets on Sale!
As a fan of the television series, I am super excited to see this property come to life inside a haunted house. While I know some are suspicious of just how “scary” a walk-through like this can be – I’m expecting lots of special effects, unexpected plot twists, and spooky imagery. If you haven’t seen the show, I highly recommend watching it before experiencing this attraction. The characters and story are pretty complicated, and it might be difficult to understand what’s going on without a working knowledge of the show.
Halloween Horror Nights starts September 3! We can’t wait for opening night!
