For those into haunted houses and the macabre, Universal Orlando Resort has you covered during the Halloween season with 10 haunted settings.

The Orlando entertainment parked has announced the addition of three new haunted houses for its Halloween Horror Nights 2025 running select nights from August 29 through November 2 according to the Orlando Informer.

Dolls: Let’s Play Dead

Visitors become doll-sized and haunted by toys that have been burnt, melded and stitched together by a twisted little girl. The dolls may appear innocent at first, but they are pure terror. The macabre haunted house brings to mind Universal Orlando’s Dollhouse of the Damned from 2014, an anything-but-normal average dollhouse where every room was a twisted scene of childhood innocence gone terribly wrong and the dolls weren’t waiting to be played with, they were playing with you.

El Arista: A Spanish Haunting

The scene is set in a haunted abode in 19th-century Spain where a tortured artist moves into an isolated country manor for inspiration, however, the art comes alive and possesses him.

Hatchet and Chains: Demon Bounty Hunters

If the name sounds familiar, this haunted house set in a cursed Old West frontier town is inspired by one of the fictional B-movies, Hatchet and Chains: Demon Bounty Hunters, featured in Slaughter Sinema 2 at the 2024 Halloween Horror Nights. All hell is breaking loose as red-hot lava demons are trying to possess everyone, melting everything in their path.

Tickets are currently on sale, and more details will follow.
