The House:

The iconic Stranger Things might have come to an end but the scares continue. Universal Orlando Resort has brought season 5 to life in a house that takes you into the heart of Hawkins. 

Come face-to-face Vecna and the Demogorgans one last time!

The Hype:

This house is perfection for fans of Stranger Things fans. One of my fellow HHN companions ranked this their number one house as for them it was the perfect goodbye to a show they loved.

The house takes you through some of the show's most terrifying highlights including seeing Holly Wheeler trapped in Vecna's mind, the melting Hawkins Lab and of course the epic final showdown.

Universal promised that the house would focus on the frightening moments of the series and they weren't kidding. Vecna and the Demogorgans appear out of no where, relying on you getting lost in the season's moments in order to surprise you.

This house felt never ending in the best possible way. You don't have to be a fan to enjoy it, but I think those who are familiar with the story will appreciate it for how excellent it truly is.
