Universal has officially announced that Sinners will be coming to both Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood as an all-new haunted house.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s been incredible to see audiences connect with\u00a0Sinners\u00a0in such a powerful way,\u201d\u00a0said Ryan Coogler, Zinzi Coogler and Sev Ohanian, producers of\u00a0Sinners\u00a0and founders of Proximity Media, in a joint statement. \u201cNow, partnering with Halloween Horror Nights gives fans the chance to step even deeper into the world of the film \u2014 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.\u201d<\/p>\n
The terrifying Halloween Horror Nights house will transport guests back in time to the popular Club Juke where they will quickly realize that nothing is as it seems when nefarious, red-eyed vampires Remmick, Bert and Joan appear with their insatiable hunger. As they attempt to evade the vampires at every turn, fans will encounter some of their favorite characters lifted straight from the film, including Sammie, Mary, Annie, Pearline and Cornbread. Caught in a deadly struggle between twins Smoke and Stack and the bloodthirsty vampires, guests must survive the night \u2013 because the terror will only relent once the sun rises.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt Halloween Horror Nights, we push the boundaries of what a live horror experience can be,\u201d said John Murdy, Executive Producer, Halloween Horror Nights, Universal Studios Hollywood. \u201cJust as Ryan Coogler\u2019s 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\u2019ve never attempted and are thrilled to bring this amazing story to life in a truly terrifying and fully immersive way.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe moment Sinners premiered, we knew it was an undeniable fit for Halloween Horror Nights and it\u2019s an honor to bring this story to life,\u201d said Mike Aiello, Senior Director of Entertainment Creative Development at Universal Orlando Resort. \u201cIt\u2019s rare for a film to fully satisfy hardcore horror fans while also inviting new audiences into the genre\u2014and that\u2019s exactly what Sinners does. Its world, characters and intensity will translate into a relentless haunted house. We can\u2019t wait for our fans to step inside and experience the horror firsthand in a way that only Halloween Horror Nights can deliver.\u201d<\/p>\n
