Every Universal Orlando Halloween Horror Nights House 2024 - Ranked

Halloween Horror Nights 2024 marks the 33rd anniversary of the premier Halloween extravaganza that brings the spookiest haunted houses you'll ever experience to Orlando each year.

This year the twisted minds behind the annual event have created 10 horrifying houses, four based on horror movie franchises that you know and love and six created from scratch by the Universal Creative. And they all demand your attention.

HHN33 features Latin American Monsters, candy filled fiends and Goblins galore. As you go behind the Red Door and come face to face with Ghostbusters, Universal's Halloween Horror Nights brings every kind of fear to its annual event.

Universal Orlando Resort kindly invited us out to experience HHN's opening night. We took the RIP Tour and survived every single house to find out which maze is the best of this year.

There may be minor spoilers so if you want to wait and see the event yourself then you may want to start with our Hype List (spoiler: there are BIG changes in the rankings now we've been to the event!).

Here is our review of every haunted house from Universal Orlando Resort's Halloween Horror Nights 2024...

The House:

Before Major Sweets turned all the children of Universal's New York streets into fiends with his candy, he needed to test it out. It also happens that you are chaperoning a group of children whilst touring his candy factory. What could go wrong?

The Verdict:

Major Sweets Candy Factory was the very first house we experienced on our RIP Tour and it was such a blast.

The house had strong smell of candy as you walked into it and it was certainly visceral in its colour scheme. The characters were fun and if you had experienced the previous scare zone Major Sweets and Miss Treats, it would have been instantly recognisable. We especially liked Taffy, a new character for Major Sweets.

There were plenty of scares and this was certainly a house on the gross side. We also loved the return of guest interaction in this maze as their were plenty of buttons to press (so watch out for them as you journey through this one).

Unfortunately for Major Sweets Candy Factory, the more houses we experienced throughout the course of the night, the lower this one fell down our list. This year is definitely strong and we were certainly surprised after experiencing this house, that by the end of the night it came out this far down our rankings.
