The wait is over! Halloween Horror Nights tickets are on sale. HHN fans can rejoice with the first announcement and special tour purchase information. The day that tickets go on sale for Halloween Horror Nights signifies that the spooky season is truly upon us! Halloween Horror Nights happens on select evenings from August 29 to November 2, 2025.
The wait is over! Halloween Horror Nights (HHN) 2025 tickets are on sale. After many rumors of this day coming and even a drop of Halloween Horror Nights merchandise appearing in the Universal online store on the morning of May 15, the time has come! Of course, this HHN merchandise reveal created confusion, as it raised the question of whether “Never Go Alone” would be an HHN tagline again. Once these became public, we expected the appearance of the HHN merchandise at Universal Studios Florida and Universal Islands of Adventure.
Soon after that, reports started to surface of “Never Go Alone” merchandise being available in the Universal Orlando Resort theme parks on May 15.
Halloween Horror Nights Tickets Disappointment
However, Halloween Horror Nights fans were disappointed not to receive an announcement about tickets on that day. At this point, with Universal Epic Universe set to open in seven days officially, an HHN announcement before then looked very unlikely.
Of course, one can never be certain regarding Halloween Horror Nights. On May 28, Halloween Horror Nights posted a video on its social media of a television screen playing static. HHN fans have seen similar things before. This seemed to be a hint that a Halloween Horror Nights announcement would be arriving soon. This video was posted simultaneously at 12:34 p.m. Eastern Time on the Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort HHN accounts. At the time, we thought that time was selected in honor of it being Halloween Horror Nights 34 in Orlando.
To continue the saga, John Murdy, king of Halloween Horror Nights Hollywood, posted on social media on Thursday, May 29, that he might be on vacation when something wicked happens. Did this mean that fans would finally get details about HHN tickets or anything else about the Halloween Horror Nights event? Apparently not! In fairness, on May 29, we received additional information about the Las Vegas horror attraction, Universal Horror Unleashed, which is set to open on August 14.
There was a questionable announcement regarding Halloween Horror Nights between Murdy’s tweet and the sale of Halloween Horror Night tickets. Halloween Horror Nights posted on social media on June 1 that “Five Nights at Freddy’s” would be coming to the Orlando and Hollywood events. Nevertheless, the wait for HHN ticket info is over! However, on June 5, the radio silence about HHN 2025 was broken.
Halloween Horror Nights Tickets on Sale (Including Premium Scream Night)
Halloween Horror Nights tickets are now available. In addition, other upcharge features, such as R.I.P. Tours, Express Pass, and behind-the-scenes tours with daylight access, became available for purchase by guests for the 2025 event. Also, the Premium Scream Night returns this year. In 2024, Universal debuted a new, one-night-only event called Premium Scream Night, taking place the evening before Halloween Horror Nights opening night and providing early access to haunted houses with low wait times at a higher price than a standard Halloween Horror Nights ticket. Guests attending this event will also receive complimentary food and non-alcoholic beverages on select items. This event takes place on August 28 and costs $375.
Halloween Horror Nights Tickets: Single-Night Version
Every year after single-night tickets go on sale, we hear people who should know better start fearing that multi-night tickets will not be sold this year. Every year, multi-night Halloween Horror Nights tickets are among the last to be announced and put on sale. We caution people not to fall for this fear. Anything can happen with a theme park, but with Universal Epic Universe now open, the status quo would be expected for Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando.
However, single-night tickets went on sale for those looking for that type of ticket media. Single night tickets are priced depending on the date and start at $82.99, the same as last year. Additionally, with single-night tickets now available, official house announcements are not far behind.
Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights 2025 promises to be the most immersive and chilling experience yet. It kicks off on August 29 and runs through November on select evenings that are mostly Wednesday through Sunday. This year marks the event’s earliest start date ever, offering fans more nights of terror than ever before.
Attendees can expect a lineup of ten haunted houses, each carefully designed to plunge guests into a world of horror. While specific themes are still under wraps, past years have featured houses inspired by popular horror films and original concepts. However, the Halloween Horror Nights speculation season has been in full force. In addition, we expect five scare zones to increase the spooky entertainment options at Halloween Horror Nights 2025 in Orlando.
Halloween Horror Nights Upgrades
For those seeking an enhanced experience, Universal also offers several add-ons. The R.I.P. Tour provides guided, front-of-line access to all haunted houses and select attractions, along with exclusive perks like a pre-tour reception and reserved show seating. Additionally, the Behind the Screams: Unmasking the Horror Tour offers a daytime, lights-on look at select haunted houses, revealing the artistry behind the scares.
Single-night Express Passes allow HHN attendees to utilize a dedicated line and avoid the standby queue. These are available starting at $139.99 per person, and prices vary by date. This year’s pricing is $10 higher than 2024.
Halloween Horror Nights Tickets: R.I.P. Tours for HHN 2025
Non-private R.I.P. Tours combine your party with other guests and start at $369.99 per person. This is a slight increase from 2024. There are also private R.I.P. Tours. These allow up to 10 people the chance to choose their itinerary and get unlimited access to the haunted houses. Still, that comes with a hefty price.
Unmasking the Horror Tours
The behind-the-scenes Unmasking the Horror Tours, start at $84.99 for the 3-house tour, which starts August 22, and $169.99 for the 6-house tour, which begins on August 29. New this year, a lunch buffet will be included with the 6-hour tour reservation.
Beyond the frights, guests can enjoy live entertainment, including the expected return of the high-energy “Nightmare Fuel” show, and themed food and beverages throughout the park. The Tribute Store also returns, offering exclusive merchandise and immersive shopping experiences.
Tickets and vacation packages are available now, with options for single-night admission, Express Passes, and hotel stays that include early park access and other benefits.
