Welcome to the funhouse – the Twisted Funhouse. Universal
Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood have announced a brand-new haunted
house for its Halloween Horror Nights experience, kicking off on Friday,
August 29 in Orlando and September 4 in Hollywood.
The twisted world of Art the Clown from the cult classic slasher
film franchise Terrifier comes to life in the 2025 haunted house inspired by
the movie, filmed in 2008 in which a supernatural entity terrorizes the
fictional town of Miles County, New York, on Halloween.
During Halloween Horror Nights, guests will experience an
unfathomable level of gore as they try to escape becoming Art the Clown’s next
victim. “Terrifier” is a grisly haunted house oozing with a new sense of terror
that takes guests into Art the Clown’s gruesome Funhouse, which first appeared
in Terrifier 2.
The sights, sounds, smells and dread of Art’s grotesque
kills is gleefully displayed for all to see. As fans make their way through the
claustrophobic corridors, they will encounter familiar faces, including Vicky
and the Little Pale Girl, and witness iconic kills from the franchise. Chaos
reigns at the Clown Café, terror festers in a revolting bathroom and holiday
cheer turns deadly in a Christmas nightmare.
Universal
