Well, folks, even though it’s only July, Halloween is fast approaching. Which means you’d better start planning for your spooky season soon. Here are some updates on the latest haunted news, which include details on Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios, the Oogie Boogie Bash at Disneyland, and Spirit Halloween’s reopening.
To have your socks knocked off at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios. This event has been taken to the next level, as its themes will include Evil Dead Burn (the latest installment of the Evil Dead franchise), Stranger Things, Sinners, Hellraiser, and a few more that have yet to be announced. Keep reading to learn more about these haunts.
This haunt is on fire! Actually, hopefully it isn’t. In this haunt, the evil Deadites return, and they are angry. Check it out below.
The Smokestack Twins return in this haunt to protect Club Juke from a gang of hungry vampires. We can’t wait to see how this haunt plays out.
Of course, we can’t know for sure what’s going to be in this haunt. However, based on this trailer, we can guess that Vecna and his demogorgons will appear throughout the haunt. And they will probably scare the crap out of some little kids.
What we know about this haunt so far: it’s going to be a hell of a time (see what we did there?) and terrifying. Pinhead is back and better than ever in this haunt. Watch the trailer to learn more.
Starting at $77 per person, you’d better get your tickets soon. Halloween Horror Nights returns on September 3rd, 2026, at Hollywood’s Universal Studios, and August 28th, 2026, at Orlando’s location. You don’t want to miss out on this amazing opportunity!
