The good news for haunt fans is that Horror Nights continues to set the bar for haunted attractions in California and this year’s collection of mazes lives up to Universal’s own high standards.
Universal is the first to market in 2024 and
A triple digit heat wave baking Southern California turned the haunted houses at Halloween Horror Nights into saunas and left the “scareactors” working the mazes dripping with sweat earlier this month at Universal Studios Hollywood.
Horror Nights 2024 will run on select nights through Nov. 3 at the Hollywood movie theme park.
