Get ready for a spine-chilling experience at Halloween Horror Nights 2023! We’ve ranked the 10 haunted houses from slightly spooky to absolutely terrifying. Don’t miss our top pick!<\/p>\n \r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n
As the days get shorter and the air gets cooler, the lure of Halloween\u00a0Horror\u00a0Nights<\/a> at Universal Orlando is impossible to ignore. Now in its 32nd year, the event is reaching new heights of fright. Universal has rolled out a roster of both original and franchise-based haunted houses, including high-profile IPs like Stranger Things, The Last of Us, and The Exorcist.<\/p>\n Beyond the haunted houses, the atmosphere is amped up with five Scare Zones, all under the sinister control of this year\u2019s mastermind, Dr. Oddfellow. Let’s not forget the show-stopping live performances and sinfully delicious themed foods. All these elements combine to create a frightfully fun evening, running on select nights until November 4.<\/p>\n If you’re a fan of terrifying tales, the roster this year is like a dream\u2014albeit a nightmare. The Exorcist: Believer and Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count join the ranks, along with a returning favorite\u2014Stranger Things, which takes a leaf from its upcoming fourth season. Then there\u2019s The Last of Us, offering nostalgia and homage but missing that spine-chilling factor.<\/p>\n Dr. Oddfellow isn’t just another face in the crowd; he’s the soul of Halloween Horror Nights this year. Resurfacing after decades, he’s setting the Scare Zones ablaze with his eerie quest for immortality, inviting you to partake\u2014though beware, his offerings might just cost you your soul.<\/p>\n Universal has always known how to give nods to nostalgia, and this house based on the Dueling Dragons roller coaster is no exception. It’s less of a horror story and more of an epic medieval drama.<\/p>\n A post shared by Halloween Horror Nights (@horrornightsorl)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\nThe IP Corner: Popular Franchises Take the Stage<\/h3>\n
