Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood has announced an all-new original show for 2024, “Late Night with Chucky.”
The live talk show will be in the DreamWorks Theatre and feature the notorious doll infusing his self-deprecating sense of humor as he takes over Late Night. The interactive attraction will invite guests to submit questions for Chucky to answer via a QR code available in the lobby of the theatre, but if this temperamental host doesn’t appreciate the question, guests may end up like his production team, who have been eliminated from their position…permanently.
Universal has also unveiled its food and drink offerings, which will be available during this year’s event. The following is a sample of what fans can expect, with highlights that include a “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” themed menu and an extensive Dia de Los Muertos menu.
