Over the weekend, the Universal Studios Hollywood Halloween Horror Nights social media accounts made a few posts without context. The posts started on Saturday with a video of a radiation symbol with a siren and some Geiger counter clicks playing in the background. Then, on Sunday, the account posted artwork of two zombie-like characters set to scary music. It turns out it was all leading up to the reveal of a new Haunted House coming to Horror Nights for 2024: Dead Exposure: Death Valley.
The new haunted house will take guests into a top-secret government facility where an experiment to create super soldiers has gone horribly wrong, turning people into radioactive zombies. And unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), they escape just as you arrive.
This is the second haunted house announcement from Universal Studios Hollywood Halloween Horror Nights this month. Earlier this month, “A Quiet Place” was announced, inspired by the post-apocalyptic world of Paramount Pictures’ blockbuster movies, “A Quiet Place” and “A Quiet Place Part II.”
Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood begins Thursday, September 5, and runs on select nights through Sunday, November 3. This year, guests will encounter eight all-new haunted houses, an onslaught of sinister scare zones, and the iconic Terror Tram.
