Stay tuned for another HHN article! A haunted house (house) based on Universal Pictures’ upcoming film The Exorcist: Believer has been announced for Halloween Horror Nights 32 at Universal Studios Florida and Universal Studios Hollywood.
This is the fourth house to have been officially announced for this year’s event. Last month, a house based on Stranger Things was announced. Back in June, a house based on The Last of Us was announced.
In a press release, Universal says the new haunted house will transport guests “to a bustling street market in Haiti, where an innocent purchase of a strange folk doll with three eyes leads to the opening of a demonic portal, the awakening of sinister spirits and the subsequent disappearance of two 12-year-old girls in the U.S.”
You can read the official overview for the haunted house below:
“Inspired by Universal Pictures’ terrifying new horror film from Blumhouse and Morgan Creek Entertainment, ‘The Exorcist: Believer’ haunted house will unleash an entirely new level of terror to Halloween Horror Nights. In this new chapter, guests will be transported to a bustling street market in Haiti, where an innocent purchase of a strange folk doll with three eyes leads to the opening of a demonic portal, the awakening of sinister spirits and the subsequent disappearance of two 12-year-old girls in the U.S. The girls are found three days later with no memory of what happened to them. After the girls begin to exhibit unsettling behaviour, it soon becomes clear that only an exorcism can save them and everyone who comes in contact with them, including unwitting guests, is suddenly at risk of losing their souls.”

WAIT! There’s more! A house inspired by Universal’s iconic cinematic monsters dubbed Universal Monsters: Unmasked has also been announced for this year’s event.
In a press release, Universal says the house will “take guests down into the infamous burial grounds where every deep corner and crevice overflows with millions of skeletal remains and even more sinister secrets.”
The official overview for Universal Monsters: Unmasked can be read below:
“Lurking sixty feet beneath the bustling streets of the City of Lights, the dark Catacombs of Paris house a much darker secret…The all-new haunted house ‘Universal Monsters: Unmasked’ takes guests down into the infamous burial grounds where every corner and crevice overflows with millions of skeletal remains and even more sinister secrets. Deep within the Catacombs, Universal’s most notorious creatures – The Phantom of the Opera, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Dr. Jekyll and his deranged alternate personality Mr. Hyde, and Dr. Jack Griffin, aka The Invisible Man – also in wait as they bide their time and seek vengeance against guests after the opening of the Catacombs to public visitation. These desperate and dangerous fiends have become filled with a rage toward guests navigating the twisted tunnels of their underground labyrinth home. It is here, in the darkness, where they hunt these trespassers and where sounds of guests’ screams will go unheard.”
