Theme park and attraction news, rumors and videos.
Many Halloween fans are missing some of their favorite parts of the season, with regions around the country discouraging trick-or-treating and many popular theme park events canceled altogether. However, one group of fans is taking matters into their own hands and organizing Virtual Halloween 2020 to satisfy their holiday craving in fun, creative and horrific ways.
Just when you thought Halloween 2020 was a goner, Hauntoween LA has saved the day with a fun, immersive, interactive—and most importantly safe—family-friendly Halloween drive-thru in Woodland Hills, Calif.
The rumors are true – again. Halloween Horror Nights isn’t dead, after all! Thanks to the success of the two “trial run” houses on Sept. 20 and 21,2020, Universal Orlando Resort has announced that they will be continuing the Halloween scares during the day on Sept. 26 – 27 and Oct. 3 – Nov. 1, 2020.
SeaWorld San Diego has announced the launch of an updated Annual Pass that allows fans to experience the park’s all-new safe and fun Halloween and Christmas festivities as much as they want in 2020. Plus, “Best Benefits Ever” pass holders can visit the park for all of 2021 and be among the first to ride the park’s all-new Emperor attraction, California’s tallest and fastest floorless dive coaster.

This year has been challenging for everyone. Theme parks are doing the best they can to adapt to the changing times. Halloween Horror Nights has been cancelled and replaced by two daytime houses, Howl-O-Scream is only doing scare zones, and most parks have completely cancelled their events. Cedar Point has decided to go a more family friendly route with the Tricks and Treats Fall Fest.
OK, so it’s not really Halloween Horror Nights. It’s more like “Halloween Horror Days Lite,” but it’s what we’re getting this year at Universal Orlando. We had a chance to go through the two haunted houses they’re offering this weekend. Here’s what it’s like to socially distance in a haunted house.
It’s pumpkin spice season, but it’s also so much more than that! It’s time for monsters, skulls, and “worms in dirt,” all in the sweet-concoctions style Disney does so well.
Two of the former masterminds behind many of the mazes at Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights have teamed up with The Orlando Forum to offer a new, original maze and dinner show on International Drive titled “Orlando Forum of Fear.”
Even though Halloween Horror Nights isn’t happening at Universal Orlando Resort this year, you can still bring some of the spooky tastes home with this recipe for the Fried PB&J with Bananas Sandwich!
