KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE LANDS IN ALL-NEW MAZES AT UNIVERSAL STUDIOS’ “HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS”

As a kid, nothing scared me more than clowns. Their endless fake smiles and bright colors made me feel uneasy; something about them was off. When Killer Klowns From Outer Space showed up on our television one day, I ran off screaming. Even to this day, although not scared of them, my palms still get a bit sweaty from the sight of the monstrous clowns from the film. Now, I have much more to worry about because they are coming to life at Halloween Horror Nights in Hollywood and Orlando. I couldn’t image anyone else bringing this property to life and after seeing the scare zone in Orlando the year prior, I have the utmost faith in its execution. Below is all the information regarding the invasion of the Killer Klowns at this years Halloween Horror Nights.

The Crazed Klowns Return to Wreak Havoc at Universal Orlando Resort and Make Their Shockingly Wicked Debut at Universal Studios Hollywood

Metro Goldwyn Mayer’s (MGM) “Killer Klowns from Outer Space” lands at this year’s “Halloween Horror Nights” in all-new chilling mazes at Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort – bringing together the most twisted scenes and ghastly gags from the popular horror sci-fi film at the nation’s premier Halloween events.

Based on the cult 1980s film favorite, the “Killer Klowns from Outer Space” mazes will transport guests to the sleepy small town of Crescent Cove, taken over by a pack of murderous clown-like creatures. Guests will be lured by the sweet smell of cotton candy and ice-cream and find themselves in an otherworldly circus tent where they’ll come face-to-face with the crazed klowns and their sinister, side-splitting antics. As they make their way through the Big Top Space Ship, guests will witness diabolical klowns making cotton candy cocoons from unsuspecting victims and will realize the joke’s on them as they are next to become the gooey snack. From one shrieking klown to the next, the mazes will lead guests through the doomed community of Crescent Cove to an eerie amusement park closed for the season. Trapped in a terrifying funhouse full of killer klowns, guests will be left screaming as there’s no stopping this twisted three-ring circus.

Universal Studios’ “Halloween Horror Nights” is the ultimate Halloween event. For more than 25 years, guests from around the world have visited “Halloween Horror Nights” to become victims inside their own horror film.  Multiple movie-quality mazes based on iconic horror television shows, films and original stories come to life season after season. And, the streets of each park’s event are transformed into highly-themed scare zones where menacing scare-actors lunge from every darkened corner.
