As horror fans prepare for Universal Studios Hollywood’s 2023 edition of Halloween Horror Nights, the theme park announced Blumhouse will host two new live entertainment experiences.

The acclaimed horror production company revealed that “The Purge: Dangerous Waters” and “Blumhouse: Behind the Screams” would debut with scare zones, the Terror Tram and eight haunted houses on September 7.

During The Purge: Dangerous Waters entertainment experience, guests will enter the WaterWorld venue and witness action sequences, stunts, lighting and laser effects, high fall fire burns and massive explosions, all celebrating an evening of sanctioned Purge anarchy.

As for Blumhouse: Behind the Screams, the live attraction breaks the fourth wall and invites guests to explore the horror production company’s films as they step through the silver screen for an up-close look at authentic film props, costume displays and character encounters.

Universal Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights runs on select nights from September 7 through October 31. Due to popular demand, event nights are expected to sell out and tickets should be purchased in advance.

The 2023 edition of the event will feature three new scare zones—El Terror de las Momias, Toyz and Ghostz—the Terror Tram experience and eight themed haunted houses, including The Last of Us, Stranger Things 4, The Exorcist: Believer, Universal Monsters: Unmasked, Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count, Evil Dead Rise, Monstruos: The Monsters of Latin America and Holidayz in Hell.

Universal Hollywood offers a variety of Halloween Horror Night ticket options, including General Admission, Universal Express, After 2 P.M. Day/Night, and the premium R.I.P. Tour, as well as the Early Access Tickets.
