Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood are unleashing serial killer Art the Clown from the cult slasher film series Terrifier in a brand-new haunted house at Halloween Horror Nights. The experience promises to be one of the bloodiest in the event's history and kicks off at Universal Orlando Resort on August 29, 2025, as well as at Universal Studios Hollywood on September 4, 2025. Guests will dive into Art's twisted world, created by Damien Leone.
A New Haunted House Emerges
Art the Clown's twisted world comes to life in the brand-new haunted house "Terrifier," inspired by the slasher film series that has terrorized moviegoers since 2008. Born from the mind of creator, writer, and director Damien Leone along with producer Phil Falcone and Dark Age Cinema Productions, Terrifier introduced a new slasher franchise to the world. Art the Clown appears as a supernatural entity that terrorizes the fictional town of Miles County in New York on Halloween, torturing victims in creatively gruesome and morbidly sinister ways. The film series has evolved into three chilling and bloody movies, with a fourth in production.
Gruesome Scenes in the Terrifier House
During Halloween Horror Nights, guests will encounter an unimaginable level of bloodshed as they try to avoid becoming Art the Clown's next victim. The gruesome haunted house "Terrifier" is infused with a fresh sense of terror and leads guests into Art the Clown's cruel funhouse, which first appeared in Terrifier 2. Guests will be overwhelmed by the sights, sounds, smells, and fear of Art's grotesque murders, displayed with glee. As fans navigate the claustrophobic corridors, they will meet familiar faces, including Vicky and the Little Pale Girl, and witness iconic kills from the series. Chaos reigns in the Clown Café, terror simmers in a revolting bathroom, and holiday cheer turns into a deadly nightmare in a Christmas tale. Guests must escape Art's twisted world – or become his next horrific exhibit.
