Looks like Halloween Horror Nights just turned into “A Quiet Place“…. shhhh!
As Halloween approaches, Universal Studios‘ annual Halloween Horror Nights promises to deliver an unforgettable experience for horror fans, movie buffs, and theme park enthusiasts alike. This year’s event will feature a chilling new addition: a haunted house inspired by the post-apocalyptic world of John Krasinski‘s praised film, A Quiet Place. The attraction is designed to recreate the suspenseful, sound-based scares that have captivated audiences through the screens worldwide. Attendees will have to pay attention to the warning: “If they hear you, they hunt you”.
In fact, the highly anticipated haunted house marks the first new movie tie-in attraction announced for the quickly approaching 2024 Halloween Horror Nights. This announcement follows the release of the upcoming prequel A Quiet Place: Day One, starring Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn, which dives deeper into the day the world went silent. Tickets for the event are now officially on sale for Universal Studios Hollywood, with limited tickets are available for Universal Orlando Resort.
An Immersive Experience: Entering the Abbott’s World
A Quiet Place has been praised for its creative use of sound, creating an immersive environment in which stillness is both a need and a survival strategy. The film tells the thrilling and heartbreaking story of Lee (Krasinski) and Evelyn Abbott (Emily Blunt) as they navigate a world where noise can have deadly consequences. The haunted house at Halloween Horror Nights seeks to recreate the fear by using distinctive sound designs, special effects, and highly trained scare-actors to immerse visitors in the Abbott family’s deadly voyage.
Visitors will be taken into the Abbotts’ farmhouse and led through iconic scenes from both the original film and its sequel, A Quiet Place Part II. As attendees travel through the eerily silent atmosphere, the alien animals’ snarls will heighten the sensation of dread and anticipation around every turn. This interactive experience promises to be a true nerve test, replicating the film’s gripping vibe.
In addition to this groundbreaking move, the attraction will also implement American Sign Language (ASL) to increase the experience’s authenticity and inclusivity. The incorporation of ASL not only sticks to the Abbott family’s communication methods, but also makes the haunted home accessible to a wider audience. By using ASL, Universal Studios demonstrates its dedication to accessibility while maintaining the key components that have made A Quiet Place a modern horror classic in the first place.
A Sneak Peek Into the Upcoming Scares, Events, and Releases
Although A Quiet Place may be the highlight of this year’s Halloween Horror Nights, it is only one of the many experiences awaiting attendees. Every year, the event consistently provides top-tier attractions based on popular franchises. Last year’s program presented The Last of Us, Evil Dead Rise, and Stranger Things, as well as a variety of original productions that kept fans on the edge of their seats.
Although fans will have to wait until August to immerse themselves in the universe of A Quiet Place, fans of the franchise can look forward to the arrival of A Quiet Place: Day One on June 28th. You won’t want to miss it, as Michael Sarnoski penned and directed the prequel, exploring the chaos that occurs when the murderous alien monsters first arrive on Earth. With Brooklyn-based backdrop, the film follows Sam (Nyong’o) and Eric (Quinn) as they deal with the chaos without the knowledge and preparation that the Abbott family had. The film promises to tell a more helpless and terrifying story, giving depth to the franchise’s backstory.
