Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights Returns

They’re here…in what has become one of Orlando’s biggest annual events, Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights returns on September 26. Amusement Today magazine calls Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights, “The country’s best Halloween event,” while guests might just call it pretty darn scary. Admission for Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights is separate from the Universal theme park admission, although the event is included in the 2-Park Premier Annual Pass for Florida residents.

After Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure closes down for the day, a host of creepy urban legends come alive as the sun goes down. This year’s ghoul of honor is Bloody Mary, who can be seen on just about every other billboard on Interstate 4 and the 528 Beachline Expressways in Orlando. In addition to haunted houses and roaming monsters, the live shows for the 2008 Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights include a Rocky Horror Picture Show tribute, Bill & Ted’s Excellent Halloween Adventure, and a magic show by Brian Brushwood.

The dates for the 2008 Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights are as follows:

· September 26-27
· October 2-5, 9-12, 16-19, 22-26, 29-31
