ONCE YOU'RE INSIDE… THERE IS NO ESCAPE
UNIVERSAL ORLANDO'S HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS 22
IS NOW OPEN
The Country's Best Halloween Event Returns With Highly-Anticipated Haunted House Experiences Based on AMC's "The Walking Dead," Video Game Franchise "Silent Hill," Penn & Teller and More
ORLANDO, Fla. (September 21, 2012) – Tonight, there will be no escape as Universal Orlando unleashes the horror of Halloween Horror Nights 22, featuring all new haunted houses, hundreds of terrifying "scareactors" and a completely reinvented street experience that will leave guests with nowhere to turn.
Recently named "the country's best Halloween event" for the fifth consecutive year by Amusement Today, Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights raises the bar each year by creating all-new, terrifying experiences that entertain guests from all over the world.
This year, guests will encounter ground-breaking, horrifying experiences:
- All-new haunted houses featuring movie-quality sets, including four houses based on some of pop culture's biggest icons: AMC's hit television series "The Walking Dead;" popular video game and motion picture franchise "Silent Hill;" the bad boys of magic, Penn & Teller; and legendary shock rocker Alice Cooper. Plus, three brand new original houses featuring a daunting European cathedral (Gothic); a bone-chilling apparition-filled house (Dead End); and Universal's classic monsters as if they have stepped right out of the silver screen (House of Horrors).
- A completely reinvented street experience that will unleash scareactors in an all-new, terrifying way. Roaming legions of menacing beasts, vampires, prisoners, warriors and more will find you in every corner of the park. There will be no boundaries. There will be no escape.
- Two outrageous shows, including the return of the popular Bill & Ted's Excellent Halloween Adventure and brand new this year, The 20 Penny Circus, featuring "magic for people with questionable taste."
