Sinners Haunted House Coming to Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando and Hollywood
After a massive 370 million dollar global box office performance and earning rave reviews from both fans and critics, Warner Bros. Pictures’ Sinners is bringing its cinematic terror to life as an all-new haunted house at Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights. The terrifying, fully immersive experiences are set to kick off on Friday, August 28 at Universal Orlando Resort and Thursday, September 3 at Universal Studios Hollywood.
Since its theatrical debut in 2025, Sinners solidified its spot as the highest-grossing original horror movie in history, securing a record-breaking 16 Academy Award nominations and taking home four Oscars. Written, directed, and produced by Ryan Coogler, along with Proximity Media producers Zinzi Coogler and Sev Ohanian, the period piece is set in the 1930s Mississippi Delta. The plot follows twin brothers Smoke and Stack as they head back to their hometown to open a community juke joint. However, the opening night celebration quickly descends into pure panic when a swarm of ruthless vampires crashes the party, threatening to violently curse the locals in a brutal fight for survival.
“It’s been incredible to see audiences connect with Sinners in such a powerful way,” producers Ryan Coogler, Zinzi Coogler, and Sev Ohanian of Proximity Media shared in a collaborative statement. “Now, partnering with Halloween Horror Nights gives fans the chance to step even deeper into the world of the film — to feel the music, the atmosphere and the tension all around them. Watching it come to life on this scale has been really special for all of us.”
The horrifying new maze will transport guests straight into the lively Club Juke, where they will instantly discover that danger is lurking in the shadows as the sinister, red-eyed vampires Remmick, Bert, and Joan emerge to feed. While trying to escape the bloodsuckers at every turn, visitors will come face-to-face with iconic characters straight from the screen, including Sammie, Mary, Annie, Pearline, and Cornbread. Caught right in the middle of a gruesome battle between the twins Smoke and Stack and the undead horde, guests will have to fight to survive the evening — because the nightmare won’t stop until the sun comes up.
“At Halloween Horror Nights, we push the boundaries of what a live horror experience can be,” explained John Murdy, Executive Producer of Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood. “Just as Ryan Coogler’s Academy Award winning film, Sinners re-invented the vampire movie, we are re-inventing the haunted house and creating new ways to scare our guests that we’ve never attempted and are thrilled to bring this amazing story to life in a truly terrifying and fully immersive way.”
“The moment Sinners premiered, we knew it was an undeniable fit for Halloween Horror Nights and it’s an honor to bring this story to life,” noted Mike Aiello, Senior Director of Entertainment Creative Development at Universal Orlando Resort. “It’s rare for a film to fully satisfy hardcore horror fans while also inviting new audiences into the genre—and that’s exactly what Sinners does. Its world, characters and intensity will translate into a relentless haunted house. We can’t wait for our fans to step inside and experience the horror firsthand in a way that only Halloween Horror Nights can deliver.”
