Halloween Horror Nights 2018: Houses Hype List Ranked!

6. Trick 'r Treat

House Overview: After the success of last year's scare zone, Trick 'r Treat returns as a maze. Sam is back and is out to make sure that everyone follows the rules. The rooms are going to be "grisly" and Sam is bringing some friends to play.

I quite like Trick 'r Treat. It's a fun Halloween themed movie that really plays off the typical urban legends that you might have heard as a child. The evil headmaster, a deadly conspiracy and an other worldly presence who seeks revenge on those who don't play by the rules.

Universal have released some sneak-peek images for this maze and it looks incredibly detailed.

The film itself is an anthology with different halloween stories that all come together thanks to the oddly cute spirit of Halloween, Sam. I imagine the maze will touch on all the stories but perhaps spend more time on the old man's house, given that's where Sam himself is most focused. Although, I hope they don't forget the Little Red Riding Hood storyline too much.

I'm interested to see where the scares are going to come from as the movie isn't particularly terrifying. I do think this will be a maze that I will really enjoy and I reckon it'll be a house that many will want to experience over and over again to spot all the details.

The film is very visual and there are so many moments that could feature in this house, I doubt I'll come away disappointed.
