The Haunted Houses: All 10 for 2025

This year’s haunted house lineup is packed with major names and terrifyingly fresh originals. Here’s what’s waiting behind the doors…

🎮 Fallout

Based on the post-apocalyptic universe of Fallout, this house throws you into the ruins of Los Angeles after nuclear devastation. Vaults, wastelands, bounty hunters, and power armour await. Survive the chaos alongside Lucy, face down The Ghoul, and brace yourself for the Brotherhood of Steel.

🔪 Jason Universe

The legend is back. Enter the woods and stumble upon the shack of Jason Voorhees, the silent killer who needs no introduction. From summer camp flashbacks to frenzied chases, this is pure slasher movie terror in real time.

🤡 Terrifier

Step into a grotesque funhouse where Art the Clown waits — and he’s not alone. This ultra-gory house features terrifying scenes inspired by Terrifier, Terrifier 2, and Terrifier 3. Expect mutilated mannequins, disturbing displays, and the feeling that you’re always being watched.

🐻 Five Nights at Freddy’s

Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy are loose. You’re in Freddy Fazbear’s haunted pizza joint, surrounded by flickering lights, malfunctioning security cams, and murderous animatronics. Let’s just say… five nights might be a bit ambitious.

🕯 WWE Presents: The Horrors of The Wyatt Sicks

This surreal, twisted house blends horror with eerie theatricality as you’re pulled into the bizarre world of The Wyatt Sicks. Expect Uncle Howdy and a lineup of chilling characters like Mercy the Buzzard and Abby the Witch. It’s haunting in every sense of the word.

Original Houses: New Nightmares Straight From Universal

Alongside the big names are five entirely original haunted houses — conjured straight from the minds of Universal’s horror creators. No existing stories here, just pure, custom-built nightmare fuel.

⚰️ Grave of Flesh

A funeral gone wrong. Really wrong. This house drops you into the underworld, where flesh-hungry creatures stalk their prey for eternity. It’s claustrophobic, rotten, and raw — a descent into literal hell.

❄️ Gálkn: Monsters of the North

In a remote northern village, something ancient and terrifying awakens. Think icy forests, cursed folklore, and creatures that don’t stay buried. It’s folklore horror with a frigid bite.

🎨 El Artista: A Spanish Haunting

A 19th-century Spanish artist retreats to an isolated manor in search of inspiration. What he finds is possession, madness, and living canvases that trap lost souls. Beautiful, baroque, and completely unnerving.

🔥 Hatchet and Chains: Demon Bounty Hunters

Welcome to the Wild West, where the only thing hotter than the desert sun is the molten rage of lava demons. Two demon-hunting legends — Hatchet and Chains — are in town, but the chaos is spreading. Wood warps, steel melts, and the whole town’s about to blow.

🧸 Dolls: Let’s Play Dead

You’re now doll-sized. And the toys? They’re alive, stitched together, and deeply unstable. This house is a playroom gone full horror — twisted tea parties, cursed marionettes, and a very disturbed little girl pulling all the strings.

Beyond the Houses

The frights don’t stop when you leave the haunted houses. Roaming scare actors take over the streets in five immersive scare zones, each with its own theme and terrifying inhabitants. Add in a lineup of live shows and access to major Universal rides after dark, and there’s never a dull (or safe) moment.

Things to Know Before You Go

It gets intense — loud sounds, strobe lights, fog, gore, and jump scares are everywhere.
No costumes or costume masks allowed — let the scare actors do their thing.
Start early if you want to see everything — lines can get long, especially on weekends.
Wear comfortable shoes — you’ll be walking (or running) a lot.
Use the Universal Orlando app — it helps you navigate houses, track wait times, and find food and rest zones when you need a breather.

Halloween Horror Nights 2025 isn’t just another seasonal attraction, it’s a full-blown experience for fans of all things eerie, iconic, and bloodcurdling. With a killer mix of familiar franchises and creative original nightmares, this year’s event is shaping up to be one of the most unforgettable yet.

Just remember: the screams are real, the monsters are waiting, and once you enter… there’s no turning back.
