YES! Building on the incredibly successful scare zone that ran for two years at Universal Studios Hollywood and Michael Dougherty’s wickedly twisted Christmas tale from 2015 comes the all-new Krampus maze to both Universal Studios Hollywood and the Universal Orlando Resort. The creative minds behind the nation’s best and most extreme Halloween events unleash the wrath of Krampus, Legendary Pictures and Universal Pictures’ Christmas-themed horror film bringing the terrifying dark Christmas legend to life in an all-new “Halloween Horror Nights” maze/house beginning September 16, 2016.
The absolute dead of winter sets the stage for the terror that’s about to unfold one cold, dank and dreary Christmas Eve as the fabled anthropomorphic “half-goat, half-demon” horned creature emerges to terrorize those devoid of holiday spirit. Of course he just HAS to show up right during Halloween when holiday spirit is at an all time low. Bad luck for us, great luck for him. There will be scenes life straight from the film, and guests will navigate the dysfunctional Engel family home to encounter the evil ancient spirit of Krampus – the dark shadow of Saint Nicholas – and his band of Dark Elves and sinister Gingerbread Men, who cause the family to fight to see the light of day.
Universal Studios’ “Halloween Horror Nights” is the ultimate Halloween event. For more than 25 years, guests from around the world have visited “Halloween Horror Nights” in Hollywood and Orlando to become victims inside their own horror film. The streets of each coast’s event are transformed into highly-themed scare zones where menacing “scare-actors” lunge from every darkened corner. Multiple movie-quality haunted houses are erected throughout the event, based on anything from iconic slasher films to hit horror television series to haunting original stories.
