Haunted Houses
This year, Universal Studios Singapore is pulling out all the stops with five fully immersive haunted house experiences, promising even more scares, thrills and more. This year will see the addition of The Weeknd’s haunted house which debuted in the States in 2022.
The Weeknd: After Hours Til Dawn Nightmare
Step into “The Weeknd: From Dusk Till Dawn Nightmare” and immerse yourself in a maze of dazzling lights and intricate corridors within his eerie nightclub, where you’ll come face to face with the chilling horrors of The Weeknd’s tormenting pain. The attraction is based on The Weeknd’s albums “After Hours & Dawn FM.”
Netflix’s All Of Us Are Dead
Enter the corridors of Hyosan High, the setting of Netflix’s acclaimed series “All Of Us Are Dead.” Will you manage to outlast the swarming zombie hordes, or will you succumb to becoming one of the insatiable undead?
Grimm Encounters
In “Grimm Encounters”, The Pied Piper has twisted all your favourite fairytales with his sinister tunes. Will you navigate his nightmarish forest and break free from the curse, or will you too fall under its malevolent spell?
Rebirth of the Matriarch
In “Rebirth of the Matriarch”, bonds of family love take a sinister turn. Guests are invited into the family home to experience a deadly ritual all in an attempt to resurrect their malevolent Matriarch from the beyond.
DIYU: Descent into Hell
DIYU: Descent into Hell invites guests to embark on a grim expedition through the gruesome levels of Di Yu and face King Yama’s judgement. Are you worthy of being saved?
Scare Zones
In addition to haunted houses, attendees can also delve into three intricately designed eerie scare zones, ensuring a multitude of thrills and scares.
Dead Man’s Wharf
Within Dead Man’s Wharf, visitors will come face to face with the notorious Madame Dragon, a pirate of unparalleled wickedness who has navigated the world’s oceans. Beware, for you could very well end up on a treacherous path towards the plank’s edge.
The Hacker
The Hacker beckons visitors to step into a horrifying realm of cyber dystopia, where the dominion of technology reigns supreme, feasting upon the desperation of humanity’s souls.
The Cursed Kiramam
Within The Cursed Kiramam, guests will explore a village condemned by the gods. Once flourishing, it now exists in a state of perpetual torment. Will they manage to evade the impending fate that looms over them?
Live Shows
Rounding out this year’s array of attractions are two captivating live shows, available for a limited time during Halloween Horror Nights.
Judgement Day (Scaremony)
At Judgement Day (Scaremony), guests will observe an ill-fated soul’s attempt to elude his ultimate reckoning, set against a backdrop of fire and fury. Will he successfully break free or become ensnared in an eternal trap?
The Hacker: Game Over
Picking up from the narrative of The Hacker haunted house, in The Hacker: Game Over, attendees will bear witness to a malevolent A.I. entity’s invasion and corruption of the victims’ virtual games. As she strives to break free from the digital realm, her sinister presence is poised to infiltrate your nightmares.
Dining Experience
The Die-ning in Hell Experience promises a multi-sensory dinner and show experience filled with thrilling moments. Guests will be treated to three courses of scarily sumptuous dishes inspired by DIYU: Descent into Hell. The 80 minute experience features performances by King Yama and his dreadful demons. Bookings are essential.
