Halloween Horror Nights 2026 Lineup (so far...)

Halloween Horror Nights will feature “Infernal Carnival of Nightmares” as the theme for this year’s event, transforming Universal Studios Florida into a decrepit, fear‑fueled carnival featuring a sinister new slate of haunted houses, scare zones and outrageous entertainment inspired by elements from Halloween Horror Nights’ history plus some of the biggest names in horror.

And the ringmasters of this year’s event will be none other than Jack the Clown – arguably the most notorious Halloween Horror Nights icon in history – and his legendary rival, Dr. Oddfellow. Halloween Horror Nights 35 will mark the first time that these nemeses join forces to wreak havoc amongst guests…after all – a fear divided is a fear diluted…

Haunted Houses

Jack & Oddfellow: Chaos & Control

Every scream has been leading to this. Discover the unsettling origins of Jack the Clown and Dr. Oddfellow’s undying rivalry before stepping through a portal into the wickedly twisted Oddverse. You’ll be caught in the middle as these two icons of terror pit chaos against control — and find that their forces of horror are most fearsome when combined.

Sinners

In 1930s Mississippi, libations flow freely and guitar screams fill the air at the Smokestack Twins’ juke joint. But the blues become red when Remmick’s troop of bloodthirsty vampires crash the party — and test blood’s true bonds — as you brave this terrifying haunted house based on the award-winning original horror film, “Sinners.”
