Halloween Horror Nights (Orlando)
October 24, 2008 / 1317
History
Halloween Horror Nights began at Universal Orlando in 1991 under the title “Fright Nights” but was re-christened Halloween Horror Nights in 1992, advertising it as the “second annual.” It began as a 3 night event but has since evolved into a 23-night scare-a-thon spanning late September through the first weekend of November. Although it normally only operates from Thursday to Sunday, an occasional Wednesday occurs during what scare actors (the park’s hired actors that are paid to scare guests) dub “Hell Week”, known for its large crowds and the increase of alcohol related incidents.
From 1991-2001, the event was held at Universal Studios Florida. Halloween Horror Nights moved to Universal’s Islands of Adventure (IOA) in 2002. In 2004, the park experimented with a dual park format, which opened parts of both parks. Guests were funneled through backstage areas and the soundstages, where most of the haunts are built. In 2006, the event made a return to Universal Studios Florida where the event continued through its 18th year in 2008. Read more …
