Every year since 1986, Universal Studios hosts Halloween Horror Nights from September 4th to November 2nd.
MBA Sophomore Neida Alcazar said, “I think that if you have a fast pass it’s even more worth it but I think the houses are really good.”
Multiple theme parks do different variations of events for Halloween including Knott’s Scary Farm, Disneyland’s Oogie Boogie Bash, and Six Flags’ Fright Fest. But arguably, Halloween Horror Nights is the best one with reimagining popular horror movies into different mazes and scare zones.
When asked about Halloween Horror Nights, Sophomore in COMPASS Jasiah Bell said, “I think Halloween Horror Nights is a great experience to experience with family, friends, or even someone special. I would definitely recommend going.”

This year, there are a total of eight different mazes, with some lines being upwards of 240 minutes to enter. “I do know that the lines are crazy and I do know compared to past years the lines are very bad,” says Emilie Anselmo, student-teacher at Millikan and a make up artist for Halloween Horror nights.
The Halloween event even sold out the whole month of September and October is already filling up, showing just how many people are attending. Fans are still waiting in lines to get a peek into fan favorite houses like Terrifier and Five Nights at Freddy’s.
