Warner Bros. Pictures' award-winning film Sinners is heading to Halloween Horror Nights this year at Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando.
Following an over $370 million global box office run, Ryan Coogler’s 2025 supernatural horror movie is being transformed into a new haunted house at both theme parks.
The vampire film takes place in 1930s Mississippi Delta and follows twin brothers Smoke and Stack, who return to their hometown to open a juke joint for their community.
"It’s been incredible to see audiences connect with Sinners in such a powerful way," said Ryan Coogler, Zinzi Coogler and Sev Ohanian, producers of Sinners and founders of Proximity Media, in a joint statement .
"Now, partnering with Halloween Horror Nights gives fans the chance to step even deeper into the world of the film – to feel the music, the atmosphere and the tension all around them.
"Watching it come to life on this scale has been really special for all of us."
At Halloween Horror Nights, guests will be taken back in time to Club Juke before the "nefarious, red-eyed vampires Remmick, Bert and Joan appear with their insatiable hunger".
Ryan Coogler’s 'Sinners' comes to life
Fans of the film will encounter characters including Sammie, Mary, Annie, Pearline and Cornbread.
John Murdy, executive producer of Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood, said: "At Halloween Horror Nights, we push the boundaries of what a live horror experience can be.
"Just as Ryan Coogler’s Academy Award-winning film Sinners re-invented the vampire movie, we are re-inventing the haunted house and creating new ways to scare our guests that we’ve never attempted and are thrilled to bring this amazing story to life in a truly terrifying and fully immersive way."
Mike Aiello, senior director of entertainment creative development at Universal Orlando, said: "It’s rare for a film to fully satisfy hardcore horror fans while also inviting new audiences into the genre – and that’s exactly what Sinners does.
"Its world, characters and intensity will translate into a relentless haunted house."
Halloween Horror Nights begins on 28 August at Universal Orlando and on 3 September at Universal Studios Hollywood.
