Overview

  • Carnival of Carnage joins fan favorites Murder of Crowz, Chainsaw Clownz and Noche de Brujas as the fourth scare zone confirmed for Halloween Horror Nights 2025.
  • The seedy sideshow theme revives a Halloween Horror Nights concept that first appeared at Universal Studios Florida in 2007 and returned to Hollywood in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
  • Universal has unveiled a full haunted-house slate that blends horror IPs—including Five Nights at Freddy’s, Poltergeist and WWE Presents: The Horrors of the Wyatt Sicks—with original experiences such as Scarecrow: Music by Slash.
  • Terror Tram: Enter the Blumhouse and The Purge: Dangerous Waters are set to return among the marquee experiences when the event runs select nights from September 4 to November 2.
  • Tickets for Halloween Horror Nights 2025 are on sale as Universal continues its staggered announcement strategy to drive advance purchases through social media and press channels.
