What Are the Hours for Halloween Horror Nights 2024?
Halloween Horror Nights 2024 is here in both Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood. Make sure you don't miss a second of the thrills.
The weather may still be warm but that won’t stop the chill that runs down your spine when you visit Halloween Horror Nights at Universal in either Orlando or Hollywood in 2024. But, as with any great vacation, there’s a lot that goes into planning the perfect trip, even one as terrifying as this.
This year, Universal Parks is kicking off its most highly anticipated annual event earlier than ever, with Halloween Horror Nights kicking off in both parks in late August to give people more time to experience the thrills, screams, and frights of their many Haunted Houses and Scare Zones. If you’ve already got your tickets or are planning the perfect trip for the horror enthusiast in your life (or yourself), you may be wondering what time you need to get to the park each evening to experience HHN in 2024, as well as how long you have to escape with your life!
