Halloween Horror Nights Returns to Universal Studios Hollywood, Steps From Beverly Hills

Universal Studios Hollywood opened Halloween Horror Nights on Thursday, marking the seasonal event's return to the theme park just a short drive from Beverly Hills. This year's mazes draw on "Sinners" and "Stranger Things 5" among the featured properties, giving guests haunted attractions built around those titles. Variety Film reported that park visitors moved through the night as screams of excitement gave way to screams of fright, the signature effect organizers aim for each fall. The opening sets the tone for the annual run at the Universal City park.
