There’s also a new, one-night experience for guests who want to pay for smaller crowds and shorter wait times. Premium Scream Night guests will experience all of the haunted houses, scare zones, and live entertainment, but without the crowds expected on a typical Halloween Horror Night.

Of course, in addition to the houses and scare zones, there will be themed food to enjoy throughout Universal Studios.
Here are the houses, scare zones and ticketing options for this year’s Halloween Horror Nights.
