Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights Featuring “Trick ‘r Treat”

by Alyssa Scott · May 17, 2018

During the spookiest time of year there are a few guidelines all ghosts and goblins should follow. Always stay on sidewalks. Never go to a stranger’s house, and never go out alone.” –Trick ‘r Treat

The Halloween classic Trick ‘r Treat will be brought to life for guests of Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood by way of an all-new, chilling maze “that dares guests to live by the rules or suffer the consequences.” We might need to grab a butterbeer before diving into this one!

The Trick ‘r Treat maze will recreate some of the movie’s most iconic, shocking scenes set on Halloween night. Whether it’s traversing through Mr. Kreeg’s house or encountering Sam, the spirit of Halloween, guests will come across familiar faces and experience the secrets of Warren Valley.

 

Legendary Pictures’ iconic horror film “Trick ‘r Treat” will terrify Halloween rule-breakers in all-new mazes at Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights.

 

This isn’t the first time Universal Studios guests have become horror film victims during the more than 25 years Halloween Horror Nights have been held in Hollywood and Orlando. With more details coming soon, guests can expect the traditional movie-quality mazes – including a maze featuring the Stranger Things series, themed scare zones in the streets, and dark corners concealing scareactors who will be ready to get guests to jump right out of their skin. (We think Peeves would approve of the scareactors in particular.)

Universal Studios has been ushering guests right into the middle of powerful stories for more than 25 years, one of its most famous experiences being Diagon Alley in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, particularly around Christmas! Orlando’s on-site hotels are said to be destinations in and of themselves, with a new hotel being introduced this August, Universal’s Aventura Hotel. On the opposite coast, Universal Hollywood will be opening its new attraction Kung Fu Panda: The Emperor’s Quest on June 15, 2018.

Will you be stopping by Halloween Horror Nights to experience the Trick ‘r Treat maze during your next visit to Diagon Alley?

ORLANDO, Fla., UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. (May 16, 2018) – Beginning September 14, Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood will bring Legendary Pictures’ cult Halloween classic Trick ‘r Treat to life in all-new Halloween Horror Nights mazes that dare guests to live by the rules or suffer the consequences.

Based on the critically-acclaimed [sic] and fan-favorite movie, directed by Michael Dougherty, the “Trick ‘r Treat” maze will transport guests to Warren Valley, Ohio on Halloween night to celebrate the holiday’s dark traditions. Recreating some of the anthology’s most iconic scenes, the disturbing new maze invites brave thrill-seekers to become entwined within the secrets of this sleepy suburban town.

Guests will experience some of the film’s most grisly scenes and encounter hauntingly familiar characters. They will meander through Mr. Kreeg’s infamous house, watch as college students viciously transform into bloodthirsty werewolves and dismember the town, as well as come face-to-face with Sam – the spirit of Halloween – who readies to punish those who break the holiday’s tradition.

Universal Studios’ “Halloween Horror Nights” is the ultimate Halloween event. For more than 25 years, guests from around the world have visited “Halloween Horror Nights” in Hollywood and Orlando to become victims inside their own horror film. Multiple movie-quality mazes based on iconic horror television shows, films and original stories come to life season after season. And, the streets of each coast’s event are transformed into highly-themed [sic] scare zones where menacing scare-actors [sic] lunge from every darkened corner.

Additional details about Universal Studios’ “Halloween Horror Nights” will be revealed soon. Select tickets and vacation packages for Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights are on sale now.
