Stranger Things is back at Universal Studios‘ Halloween Horror Nights this year, with a new haunted house inspired by the latest season of Netflix’s original series.

In a press release, Universal said the Stranger Things-themed haunted house “mirrors the mind-bending twists and supernatural terror of season 4, immersing guests in a heart-pounding experience alongside characters from the series, including Eleven, Max, Eddie and more”.
Guests “will find themselves on the front line of Vecna’s deadly attacks on the citizens of Hawkins” while making their way through iconic scenes from the show, including Hawkins Lab, the Creel House and Vecna’s monstrous Mind Lair.
“From the opening shots of Stranger Things 4, episode one, we knew this was meant to be an experience at Halloween Horror Nights,” said John Murdy, executive producer of Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood.
“We’re excited for our fans to live Vecna’s curse as we recreate the iconic and terrifying moments from the show,” added Lora Sauls, assistant director of creative development and show direction at Universal Orlando.
