Universal Studios is ready to spring into the spooky season!

Universal Orlando HHN
Halloween Horror Nights is just around the corner, and if you’re looking for fun foods, horrifying houses, and more, Universal has got you covered! Now, HHN fans have a huge reason to celebrate. We finally know one of the houses that will strike fear into everyone’s hearts!
If you’re a fan of Halloween Horror Nights, then you’ve come to the right place. Universal is known for its spooky after-hours event to celebrate the holiday season, and we recently found out that HHN will be returning on August 29th, 2025, and will run on select days of the week through November 2nd, 2025.

Halloween Horror Nights line in 2024
This is easily Universal’s most popular yearly event, and one of the most exciting times for fans is the lead-up to the actual spooks! Universal traditionally will reveal the themes of the houses one by one, and if you’ve been waiting on pins and needles like us, the wait is finally over. Universal has finally revealed that Five Nights at Freddy’s is coming in a whole new way.

If you aren’t familiar with this IP, Five Nights at Freddy’s is a survival horror video game that was later made into a movie starring Josh Hutcherson and Matthew Lillard, a graphic novel, a novel, and more. This spooky game takes you into a world where you try to survive killer animatronics that have come to life! (Think like an Evil Chuck E. Cheese.)

Signs for the houses in 2024
Universal confirmed it in a video on X, which you can see here! The house will be at both Universal Studios Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood. They also confirmed more details will be revealed at a later date.
