Orlando – Universal has officially announced that the highly popular survival horror video game “Five Nights at Freddy’s” will feature prominently at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights, set to take place in both Orlando and Hollywood. The news was revealed over the weekend via the event’s social media accounts on X.
The “Five Nights at Freddy’s” attraction promises to provide visitors with a “whole new way” to experience the terrifying world of the game. While the specifics of this experience are yet to be fully detailed, it is generating significant excitement among fans of the franchise and horror enthusiasts alike.
Halloween Horror Nights will commence on August 29 and run through November 2 at Universal Studios in Orlando, while Hollywood’s event will kick off on September 4 and conclude on the same date. The events are renowned for their immersive themed houses and open-air scare zones, featuring original concepts alongside popular franchises from film and television.
In 2023, previous shared themes included acclaimed works such as “A Quiet Place“, “Insidious: The Further“, “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire“, and “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines“. Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights is typically known for featuring more haunted houses and original content, while Hollywood tends to focus more on intellectual properties, integrating popular franchises into the event’s offerings.
Attendees can look forward to a range of live entertainment, themed food options, and access to select park attractions with significantly shorter wait times during the event. However, it is worth noting that Halloween Horror Nights may be too intense for young children, and those under the age of 13 are not recommended to attend.
For safety reasons, guests at Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights are prohibited from wearing costumes or costume masks. Hollywood has similar guidelines in place regarding costume masks. It is anticipated that tickets for the 2025 event will follow the pricing trends of previous years. Last year’s single-night tickets started at approximately $82.99 in Orlando and $77 in Hollywood, but prices for the upcoming year have yet to be announced.
“Five Nights at Freddy’s” was first released in 2014 and has since expanded into a multifaceted franchise, encompassing multiple game sequels, a book series, and a film adaptation that hit theaters in 2023. A sequel to the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” movie is projected for release in December 2025, further heightening the franchise’s popularity.
Prior iterations of “Five Nights at Freddy’s” at Halloween Horror Nights have included photo opportunities in Orlando and animatronics on display in Hollywood, demonstrating the franchise’s appeal and the desire to integrate its elements into the immersive Halloween experience. Furthermore, Universal has increasingly incorporated various Blumhouse films into its Halloween Horror Nights lineup in recent years, expanding the horror experience available to attendees.
The events are separately ticketed, meaning they are not included with standard park admission, providing a unique mix of thrills that sets Halloween Horror Nights apart from typical park experiences. More details regarding ticket prices, themes, and immersive experiences are expected to be released in the upcoming weeks, providing eager fans with crucial information as the event dates approach.
