Ready to summon your scream squad?

Here's everything you need to know before you buy a ticket to Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights 2024, and how to get the most out of your upcoming vacation.

What is Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando?

Halloween Horror Nights is a separately ticketed event that runs after Universal Studios Florida closes to guests.

Once the park closes Universal Team Members transforms Universal Studios Florida into a huge Halloween event with 10 haunted houses, 5 scare zones, and 1 show. There’s tons of themed food booths that serve yummy food items like pizza fries, and lots of alcohol.

Universal's Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando and Hollywood was created in large part for the horror movie enthusiasts. The event is centered around haunted houses scare zones, and themed food + drinks that change every year.

HHN is an insanely popular after-hours event. These walkthrough houses and zones are usually based on iconic franchises, like "BlumHouse and "Chucky."

There's also original houses that Universal's creative team comes up with.

When is Halloween Horror Nights 2024?

Halloween Horror Nights 2024 will happen on select nights from August 30 – November 3, 2024 at Universal Studios Florida.. The event runs every Wednesday to Sunday and on Halloween night.

What Time Does Halloween Horror Nights 2024 Start?

Halloween Horror Nights 2024 event nights begin at 6:30 PM and closing times are usually either 1:00AM or 2:00AM.

To make the most of your HHN night, aim to be at Universal Studios Florida at least 45 minutes to an hour before the official opening at 6:30 p.m.

Historically, Universal Orlando opens the gates a little bit earlier than the official starting time. I've seen the gates for HHN open for guests between 5:45 p.m. and 6:15 p.m.

If you're staying at 1 of the Universal Orlando hotels —  Take advantage of the priority entrance gate until 8 p.m. to get into the event quicker. (Portofino Bay, Royal Pacific Resort, Hard Rock Hotel, Sapphire Falls Resort, Universal Cabana Bay Beach Resort, Universal Aventura Hotel or Universal Endless Summer)

A Quiet Place

Based on the horror franchise by director John Krasinski, this haunted house will follow the Abbott family as they try to survive the aftermath of the apocalypse.

Silence your screams if you want to survive this terrifying, post-apocalyptic world based on the films “A Quiet Place” and “A Quiet Place Part II.” Like the Abbott family, you must keep quiet as you travel from the farmhouse, to the woods, to the foundry.

What to Bring & Wear for Halloween Horror Nights 2024

Small Bag + Lanyard

Wear a lanyard to hold your tickets, passes, money, etc. You’ll get through security faster, avoid lockers at rides, and not have to worry about hauling a heavy bag around. Bag wise go with a fanny pack.

Valid Identification

If you plan to purchase or drink any alcoholic beverages

Deodorant + Anti Chafing Stick

Refillable Cup

You can bring your refillable Coke Freestyle cup to HHN33 to get soda and water refills.

Rain Gear

HHN falls during peak Hurricane season in Florida. Pack a poncho + umbrella for those rain storms. Especially opening weekend.

Dress for Comfort

You’re going to do a lot of standing and walking, so wear comfortable clothes and shoes.

Leave the Costume at Home

Costumes and costume masks are not allowed at Universal Orlando HHN.

Best Tips for Attending Halloween Horror Nights 2024

Here are some tips and tricks to make the most out of your Halloween Horror Nights experience.

Watch the Movies:

Before you come to HHN, binge watch the movies or TV shows that are featured in this year’s event. You’ll be able to truly appreciate the houses by recognizing the iconic scenes, details, and characters.

Buy Your Halloween Horror Nights Tickets in Advance

Halloween Horror Nights requires a separate ticket from regular theme park admission. Make sure to purchase in advance

Know the Best Days to Go to Halloween Horror Nights

Attend Halloween Horror Nights on off peak nights. Aim to visit Universal Orlando for HHN Sunday through Thursday’s. You’ll be able to take advantage of the lower crowd levels, and snag cheaper HHN tickets. If all all possible try to avoid weekends and the days closes to Halloween weekend.

Set a Halloween Horror Nights Budget Before You Arrive

All of the yummy HHN food, drinks and merchant can add up real fast. Especially if you are already splurging on Stay and Scream and/or HHN Express Passes.

Pro Tip: If you’re going with a group of friends, consider splitting the HHN food + drinks so you can try more, and spend less money.

Consider buying Halloween Horror Nights Express

HHN Express Passes are worth it, BUT it really depends on when you're going, and if your goal is to do all 10 houses in 1 night. I’d definitely recommend it if you can only do one night, or are wanting to go on Fridays and Saturdays in October, especially closer to Halloween.

Pro Tip: You can buy an HHN Express Pass that's half the original price but it only works after 11 p.m. Just keep in mind that it’s subject to availability.

Arrive Early

This is SUPER important. Arriving early is hands down the best way to  make the most of your night. The event typically begins at 6:30 p.m., but Universal often lets guests in up to half an hour early.

Utilizing Universal Orlando's Stay & Scream Early Entry will also set you up to knock out a few houses before it gets really busy later at night.

Pro Tip: Universal Resort hotel guests also have a dedicated line from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. on the left side of the entrance.

Have a Flexible Halloween Horror Nights Game Plan

 Plan in advance what your priorities are. - Review the HHN park map and make a list of what haunted houses you want to do and in which order. Map out your night based on where and when you'll be starting. This is absolutely key to HHN, especially if you want to do as many houses as possible.

Pro tip: Start with the haunted houses at the back of the park and make your way towards the front as the night goes on.

Don’t Forget Your ID+ Wallet

Remember to pack your ID, HHN tickets, and wallet, Believe it or not this  happens to a lot of guests visiting for HHN.

Start in the Back

The haunted houses near the front of the park tend to get crowded first. Start with the houses in the back of the park and you’ll be able to get half of the haunted houses done quickly.

Stay Hydrated

Halloween Horror Night requires a great deal of standing in lines, walking and of course sweating. When you add consuming multiple  HHN alcoholic drinks, it can lead to horrible night later on.  Bring a collapsible water bottle to survive all the waling and to stay to cool. You can get free water from the Coca-Cola Freestyle Machines.

Pack + Dress Light

It’s still hot in Orlando during September and October, even at night! Wear cool, comfortable clothes, and broken in supportive shoes. Skip a big backpack and opt of a fanny pack or small backpack/drawstring bag. Your back will thank you when you get back to the hotel.

Eat Beforehand

Eat a meal with some sustenance and fuel up before you leave the hotel in the early afternoon/evening. You don’t want to be hangry, and often times the HHN food booth lines get really really long. This is also a great way to save money on food in the parks.

Pro Tip: HHN Food lines are typically way shorts after 11:00pm.
