‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ haunted house coming to Halloween Horror Nights

“Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire” at HHN

This year’s Halloween Horror Nights (HHN) will feature a “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire” haunted house at Universal Studios Florida and Universal Studios Hollywood, both parks announced today. The signature haunt event returns to Florida on select nights from Aug. 30 – Nov. 3, 2024 and to California on select nights from Sept. 5 – Nov. 3, 2024.

Universal teased the backstory of the “Frozen Empire” haunted house on social media by saying, “An ancient artifact has released a chilling new entity, Garraka. Try not to freeze in fear as he freezes people before your eyes. Only the Ghostbusters can stop you from getting iced.”

The “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire” film, which debuted in theaters earlier this year (check out our reporter Connor’s review!), is a sequel to 2021’s “Ghostbusters: Afterlife,” itself a legacy sequel to the original “Ghostbusters” films from the ’80s.

Universal also shared a teaser trailer for the “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire” haunted house:

“Ghostbusters” History at Universal Studios

The “Ghostbusters” franchise is no stranger to Universal theme parks, despite the films being released by Sony, not Universal. The “Ghostbusters Spooktacular” show performed from 1990-1996 at Universal Studios Florida in the space now occupied by Race Through New York starring Jimmy Fallon.

The original “Ghostbusters” was also the inspiration for a haunted house in both Florida and California at HHN 2019.

This summer, “Ghostbusters” is a prominent part of new live entertainment at Universal Studios Florida, including the “CineSational: A Symphonic Spectacular” drone show and the upcoming “Universal Mega Movie Parade.”

Halloween Horror Nights tickets are now on sale for both versions of the event.
