There are n’t many places you could experience Friday the 13th , A Nightmare on Elm Street , Halloween , The exorciser , The Purge , American Horror Story , and The Walking Dead all in one place , and outlive the experience . In fact , there ’s just one : Universal Studios ’ Halloween Horror Nights .

The annual fall tradition open up this preceding weekend at Universal Studios motif parks in Orlando and Hollywood , boast tangle exhort by those pop repugnance series and more . We attend the Hollywood first step where longsighted waiting , revolting smells , and lots of scares were waiting for people at every single turn . It was a eruption .

If you may go , and you ’ve stimulate the time and money , it ’s a bully time . We recognise many hoi polloi ca n’t , though , so we assembled this ingathering of photos courtesy of both Universal and yours truly as I wandered around the attraction . hold in them out !

American Horror Story

The Horror Story labyrinth take scenes from three pop season of the franchise ( Murder House , Hotel and Freak Show ) and weaves them together into a singular experience . It ’s one of the brightest and eldritch mazes , but a small perplexing if you do n’t know the series .

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: Blood Brothers

Enter through the front of a barbecue eatery and connect with the whole Sawyer phratry — not just Leatherface , but his blood brother , too . This is a really gross , really fun labyrinth that includes some bully , improvisational interaction with real role player .

The Exorcist

One of the most notable horror motion picture ever becomes a maze that features a lot of Regan with her head spinning , spitting at priest , and running up and down step like a spider . It incorporates pieces from the original film and beyond . Also , either by luck or design , some rooms do have a pea plant soup vomit odour .

Freddy vs. Jason

As a super fan of both these franchises , this was by far my favored maze . It seamlessly blends iconic band such as the boiler room from Nightmare on Elm Street and Camp Crystal Lake , cross over between them when it require to , and features more Freddys and Jasons than you’re able to shake machete at . There are some really cool , fun surprise as well .

Halloween: Hell Comes to Haddonfield

In 2015 , devotee at Halloween Horror Nights got to experience scenes from the first Halloween film . This yr , the snarl starts there , goes through the hospital from Halloween II , and then even into the unrelated , but awe-inspiring , Halloween III .

Krampus

The holiday horror film produce its first appearing at Horror Nights with a really inventive maze that makes a whole lot more sentience if you ’ve see the movie . If you have n’t , it probably seems really , really odd . But in a good direction ! It also sense like gingerbread .

The Purge

Between mazes , as you take the air around , mass dressed as characters from The Purge movies are lam around to scare you , making it sort of the overarching setting of the event . There ’s a separate outdoor space that ’s kind of a smaller maze , and then plenty of small nods all over the park .

Eli Roth Presents Terror Tram

The one attractive feature not attached to a major Hollywood dealership is the Terror Tram , which takes the iconic Universal Studio Tour and turns it into a maze . Director Eli Roth come up with a creepy , clown - drive construct , and the tangle is fill with vulgar and awesome visuals . However , the Nox we went , miserable crowd management really took away from the fun of this maze .

The Walking Dead

After being the most democratic maze for years , Universal Studios Hollywood decide to install a permanent maze into their park , opened all yr . Of naturally , it remains opened during Horror Nights .

If you like to be grossed out and daunt , Halloween Horror Nights is a blast . It ’s expensive , though , and very very busy as you get nigh to Halloween . If you get to go , we highly urge not just earmark ticket in onward motion , but also pass a small more to get the Front of the Line option . It ’ll save you minute , literally .
