Universal Teases Fallout And Five Nights At Freddy’s Halloween Horror Nights Houses

This year’s Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios in California and Universal Orlando in Florida will feature haunted houses devoted to Fallout and Five Nights At Freddy’s–and while both are inspired by video games, both houses will lean into their respective live-action adaptations.

The theme parks haven’t shared any of the footage of this year’s HHN houses yet, but the creative team on both coasts has offered a few teasers about what fans can expect to see.

While speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Universal revealed that Amazon Prime’s Fallout series provided the HHN team with 3D models of Walton Goggins’ The Ghoul to ensure that masks used in the attraction are identical to his face on the show. Universal Orlando’s Lora Sauls also said that a teaser has been filmed, with “one of their characters for us to tease their second season in the house.”

Universal Orlando’s Mike Aiello added that the Fallout house will be a montage of different locations from the show and the games, with appearances by Lucy (played by Ella Purnell in the series), The Ghoul, Maximus (played by Aaron Moten in the series), and a 500-pound animatronic bear.

Speaking of animatronics, the Five Nights At Freddy’s house will feature full-size animatronic recreations of Freddy Fazbear and his pals as created by Jim Henson’s Creature Shop. Universal Hollywood’s John Murdy called them “the most complicated animatronic figures that we’ve ever done” for HHN. He added that guests will “see a fully animated Freddy Fazbear performing like he would in the movie or the video game” in a convincing recreation of the pizzeria that serves as the setting for the games and movies. Even the game’s famous security room will be a part of the attraction.

Universal Orlando will kick off the Halloween festivities with Five Nights At Freddy’s on August 29, while Universal Studios will wait a little longer and start the FNAF event on September 4. Halloween Horror Nights on both coasts will run until November 2.
