‘Insidious Chapter 2’ Added to Halloween Horror Nights

Universal Studios Hollywood’s newest addition to the upcoming Halloween Horror Nights is a maze inspired by Insidious and its sequel, Insidious: Chapter 2. The just-added maze will scare visitors by bringing the Lambert family’s evil spirit to life.

Per Universal: “Maze-goers will travel into the world of the dead to confront the malicious souls hell-bent on bringing suffering to the living.”

“To bring the paranormal world of Insidious to life, we’re collaborating with the film’s director James Wan, writer/co-star Leigh Whannell and producer Jason Blum, who all happen to be huge fans of our Halloween event,” stated Halloween Horror Nights Creative Director John Murdy. “It’s an incredible opportunity to partner with filmmakers who share our passion for bringing nightmares of the silver screen to life and who are committed to making every scene and every nuance of the maze as authentic and unsettling as their film.”

“This attraction takes guests through the utter horror of both Insidious and Insidious: Chapter 2,” said director James Wan. “The Lipstick Demon, The Long Haired Fiend and the victims he murdered – they all come together in a perfect storm within the maze. In fact, I think this maze is the closest you can come to experiencing the kind of fear portrayed in our films, without actually living through it yourself.”

Halloween Horror Nights kicks off on September 20, 2013, a week after Insidious: Chapter 2 arrives in theaters.
