Universal Intervenes After Guests Harass Roaming ‘Art the Clown’ at HHN 34

No policy change has been announced despite concern the roaming feature could be curtailed.

Overview

  • Reports from Universal Studios Florida describe repeated interference with the performer, including guests grabbing a bike’s handlebars, yanking a horn, and trying to pull away a garbage bag prop.
  • One reported incident involved a drunk guest ripping the horn and honking it in the performer’s face, leading the actor to break character as security and police removed the offender.
  • Security has stepped in multiple times as harassment escalates, raising safety and operational questions early in the Halloween Horror Nights run.
  • Universal lists Art the Clown as a roaming experience at HHN 34, with unscheduled appearances in park streets and shops contributing to the event’s buzz.
  • Fans and reporters caution that continued misconduct could prompt Universal to restrict or end the roaming encounters, though no decision has been announced.
