In a chilling development, Universal Orlando Resort has announced Yeti: Terror of the Yukon haunted house coming to Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights this year. Inspired by the Attack of the Swamp Yeti portion of last year’s grindhouse-themed Slaughter Sinema house comes a frightening new take on the fear-inducing folklore of the wild Yeti. Departing from the B-movie cheese the new house will feature bloodthirsty terror leaving the snows will be red with blood.

Story
Deep in the remote tundra of the Yukon, loggers and trappers seek refuge from the frigid grip of an arctic blizzard. But out in the darkness, a terror lurks far more dangerous than the deluge of snow and ice. These unfortunate souls have intruded into a territory that is haunted by their worst nightmares. Enter a logging camp that’s been torn apart, floors caked with snow, bones and gore. Right outside, screams are frozen on the faces of those who fled the towering monsters only to succumb to the elements. But there is no escape from beasts as brutal as the winter.

The new experience promises to mix chills and thrills as an icy terror descends over guests. As visitors follow a trail of blood leading through caves none have lived to see we will hear the screaming echoes of those who couldn’t escape the inevitable. The remains of those who came before will be strewn about and as the Yeti will stop at nothing for a taste of blood.

This marks the 5th announcement from the promised 10-house line up at Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights and the fourth original concept house for this year. We expect a parade of IP house announcements remaining.


On select nights from September 6 to November 2, the most terrifying names in horror will take over Universal Studios Florida, as the sun sets on days filled with thrills and the night awakens with a frightening chill for Halloween Horror Nights. Guests will face 10 all-new elaborately themed haunted houses, five scare zones and live entertainment as well as enjoy Universal Studios’ most exhilarating rides and attractions. All tickets and vacation packages are now on sale. For more information and to purchase tickets, click here.
