House Overview: They're here... the 80's classic Poltergeist is finally getting its debut at Halloween Horror Nights. Expect to see all your favourite moments from this iconic movie. You'll also get to go into the light... but will you be able to escape?

Poltergeist is a staple for many horror fans so it is exciting that the movie will finally be featuring at HHN. To be honest, I was a little surprised that this house took so long to debut, given Steven Spielberg's close relationship with Universal.

The movie has a lot of special effects, many which were physical. This maze will more than likely feature a load of those iconic scenes. Particularly the moving furniture, the peeling face and the creepiest clown you ever did see. I think we would could also anticipate there being a pool filled with corpses at some point in the maze.

I am really fascinated to walk through this maze and see how they bring to life the more famous moments of the movie.

Poltergeist is a maze I've become more and more excited see as the event creeps ever closer.
