Universal Studios Florida® & Islands of Adventure®,
Universal Orlando®, Orlando, Florida Throughout October
September 25-26, October 1-4, 8-11, 15-18, 21-25 and 28-31, 2009 For the first time ever, guests at Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights will live a mega-horror movie before it even hits the big screen. They will also experience two modern day blockbuster horror franchises as Universal Orlando devotes its entire Halloween Horror Nights event to bringing horror films to life.
Universal Orlando is partnering with Universal Pictures to bring one of the year’s most highly anticipated films, The Wolfman, to life so guests can experience it firsthand before it hits theaters on November 6, 2009. It is also partnering with Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures to bring the most profitable horror franchise, SAW, to Halloween Horror Nights 19: Ripped from the Silver Screen. Universal Orlando is also using its partnership with Universal Pictures to bring the popular “Chucky” film series to life at the event as well. Lionsgate is expected to release the sixth installment of the powerhouse franchise in theaters nationwide on October 23, 2009, in its traditional opening weekend slot leading into Halloween. The “Chucky” films have become a favorite among horror film and pop culture enthusiasts.
Never before has Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights featured such a catalog of horror. Everyone knows these films. And now everyone will get to live them in person. Guests will experience the physical and psychological horror that Jigsaw, Chucky and The Wolfman have inflicted on the silver screen. They will become victim to the mental games of “Saw’s” maniacal killer, Jigsaw. They will come face to face with “Chucky’s” wrath. And they will be there as “The Wolfman’s” alter-ego, Lawrence Talbot, discovers a primal side of himself he didn’t know existed.
From house and character designs to costuming and prosthetics, work is already underway on this year’s event. Additional details will be revealed leading up to opening night of Halloween Horror Nights 19. A “Saw” attraction will also be included in the Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood. For 23 select nights this fall, modern horror films are “Ripped from the Silver Screen” to frighten guests at what promises to be the most feared Halloween Horror Nights ever.
Other horror films and characters from the movies, including completely reimagined Frankenstein and Dracula concepts, will also be integrated into this year’s event. Halloween Horror Nights 19 will features all-new horrifying haunted houses, inescapable and chilling scare zones, live shows and hundreds of frightening “scare-actors.”
Event dates are September 25-26, October 1-4, 8-11, 15-18, 21-25 and 28-31, 2009. Regular admission to any night of the event is $69.99 plus tax. Because of the event’s popularity, tickets for weekend nights are expected to sell out and should be purchased well in advance.
