The eerily authentic and disturbingly real maze experiences will place Halloween Horror Nights guests at the heart of the shows once impenetrable prison, the West Georgia Correctional Facility, now overrun by hordes of flesh-eating walkers. The mazes at Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando will send guests cowering through the walker-infested wilderness that surrounds the prison and into the seemingly utopian town of Woodbury where gruesome secrets are concealed.
Universal Orlando is also dedicating its entire Halloween Horror Nights street experience to The Walking Dead making this the first time ever that all of the scare zones throughout the park will be themed after a hit television series. Guests brave enough to walk the streets of Universal Studios Florida will encounter iconic scenes from all three seasons of the hit show - including the perilous city of Atlanta and Hershels dismal barn - and fleets of blood-thirsty walkers who are hungry for their next victim.
The Golden Globe -nominated, Emmy Award-winning series The Walking Dead is based on the graphic novel written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics. The series tells the story of the months and years after a zombie apocalypse. It follows a group of survivors, led by sheriff Rick Grimes, who travel in search of a safe and secure home. The Walking Dead is the first original cable series ever to end the broadcast TV season as the number-one show for adults 18-49. AMCs The Walking Dead returns for season 4 on Sunday, October 13 at 9pm ET/PT.
Whats great about working with a property like The Walking Dead is that each season presents new environments and characters for us to draw inspiration, said John Murdy, Creative Director for Universal Studios Hollywood. With the prison as the main setting of Season 3, we seized this opportunity to recreate that very environment, down to the last detail, to be as genuine and authentic to the show as possible. Using movie-quality production value, our goal is to make guests feel as if they are mired in the world of blood-thirsty zombies, which is something you can only do at Halloween Horror Nights.
The goal is always to surround guests with authentic and terrifying experiences, said Michael Aiello, Creative Development Director for Universal Orlandos Entertainment team. The combination of The Walking Dead themed street experiences and the haunted maze will make it difficult for our guests to escape the hordes of ravenous walkers theyve seen on their television. The moment you pass through our gate, you become a survivor fighting for your life.
Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights events have a more than 20-year history of creating incredibly entertaining, horrifying Halloween experiences that are consistently rated the nations best. The events on each coast feature highly-themed, disturbingly real, haunted mazes based on everything from films to nightmares -- and streets filled with hundreds of specially trained scareactors.
