Skate Into the Screams: Halloween Horror Nights 2025 Scareactor Auditions Are Underway!

It may still be spring, but spooky season is creeping closer—and at Universal Orlando, the wheels of fear are already turning (literally). With Halloween Horror Nights 2025 set to kick off on August 29, preparations are in full swing, and auditions for scareactors are now open!

Halloween Horror Nights Casting for Select Roles for this Upcoming Halloween Season

In a thrilling twist for this year’s event, Universal recently posted a casting call for scareactors on roller skates—a first for HHN! While that particular posting has since closed, the fact that Universal is seeking performers with skating skills raises plenty of fun speculation: Will these agile terrors be gliding through a scare zone? Or will they be featured in a high-octane stage show? Either way, it’s safe to say: your nightmares might now come with wheels.

Auditions are still ongoing for several performance roles, including:

🧟‍♂️ Scareactors – No experience needed! Universal is looking for all looks and sizes. You’ll need to be comfortable with fog, lighting effects, and large crowds.
🤡 Stilt Walkers – Must be experienced and confident maneuvering through dim lighting and chaotic scenes.
👹 Puppeteers – Previous experience required, with the ability to perform with any style of puppet to a music track of your choice.
💃 Dancers – Strong in hip-hop and/or jazz. Dance demo reels are required. Must be available for rehearsals beginning mid-July.

All candidates must be 18+ and able to commit to every event night between August 29 and November 2, plus rehearsals in the weeks prior. Submissions require a headshot, full-length photo, resume, and audition video—and all materials must be current. For dancers, a demo reel is also required. (And don’t forget: submission deadlines are looming!)
