Halloween Horror Nights 2026 Lineup
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.”
Stranger Things 5
The Upside Down is invading Hawkins, and this time no one’s safe. In this haunted house based on the final season of “Stranger Things,” join the gang in Hawkins for one last adventure as you try to survive Demogorgons and the Mind Flayer. Will you defeat Vecna once and for all?
Hellraiser
Enter a realm of pure pain in a haunted house based on the original “Hellraiser” trilogy. You’ll journey through the depths of Hell and bear witness to Pinhead and the Cenobites’ nightmarish rituals. Then hope you don’t get trapped in your own.
Evil Dead Burn
The Book of the Dead has been reopened, and now an infernal force consumes a family home. In this haunted house based on the new film, “Evil Dead Burn,” dodge possessed Deadites hell-bent on bloodshed — and encounter not just the root of evil, but the whole family tree.
Ozzy Osbourne: Prince of Darkness
Ozzy Osbourne’s shocking image was as haunting as his heavy metal hits. Now you’ll enter the Prince of Darkness’s kingdom where music and mayhem collide — and everything’s gone off the rails. Veer through a decaying world ripped straight from Ozzy’s lyrics in this haunted house inspired by one of rock ‘n’ roll’s greatest legends. Let the madness begin!

MADLANDS: Caged Cannibals
In this haunted house, you’re among survivors seeking refuge from a dystopian wasteland within a defunct zoo. But you’ll quickly realize that while the animals may be long gone, they’ve been replaced by something far more primal — warring cannibal factions that have taken their animal instincts to the extreme.
Cybergoria
Humanity slipped off into machine-induced cryo-sleep with the promise we’d awaken immortal. Instead, we found that our cybernetic caretakers had stripped away our flesh, transforming us into something beyond human. Brave this haunted house and a cold world of machines driven by one goal: to make you live forever, even if it kills you.
INVASION: Alien Abduction
The Grays definitely didn’t come in peace. But you will leave in pieces. Enter this haunted house in the middle of an alien abduction and scramble through the wreckage of a ravaged Southwestern homestead, surviving viciously probing tentacles and making contact with horrors from the dark and distant reaches of our galaxy.
Scare Zones
Infernal Carnival of Nightmares
Jack and Dr. Oddfellow proudly present: the Infernal Carnival of Nightmares. Step right up and discover what horrors hide in every shadow at this sinister spectacle decades in the making.
Sideshow of Decay
Cindy’s time has come. With Dr. Oddfellow’s dark sorcery, she opened a portal in the carnival’s junkyard — using it to resurrect decayed nightmares from the past that are back to haunt you.
FORTNITEMARES
The horrors of FORTNITEMARES are no longer confined to the island. Drop into this scare zone crawling with fearsome foes and brace for the Storm. As it spreads, so does a terrifying new world where danger, chaos and unsettling surprises lurk around every corner.
Downtown Clowntown
The city that never sleeps becomes a waking nightmare when its boroughs are overrun by Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Art the Clown and other murderous clownsfolk who can’t wait to tear you limb from limb. Don’t be fooled by the locals — survival is no laughing matter.
Shows

Embark on a dark musical journey and resist temptation as death-defying stunts lure you deeper into a vampire-ridden metropolis.
