For Universal Halloween Horror Nights fans, Christmas is set to come early this year as Krampus makes an appearance.

Set to appear at both Universal Studios in Orlando and Hollywood, Krampus and his crew of Dark Elves and sinister Gingerbread Men will terrorise guests with his own, much-anticipated maze.

Visitors to the maze will find themselves on Christmas Eve at the house of the Engel family. As you journey all through there house, a creature is stirring and his name is Krampus.

Working with Mike Dougherty, the Director of the Krampus movie, guests will enter the home of the Engels where you will encounter all sorts of nightmare inducing sights. Everywhere from the kitchen to the attic is full of some not-so-wanted gifts waiting to scare you.

You will need to run for your life if you want to make it all the way to Christmas in one piece. Krampus' band of not so merry Dark Elves, nail gun shooting Gingerbread Men and sinister Jack-in-the-Box will be on your case. But these scary creatures aren't the only ones after you.

The half goat demon known as Krampus is after souls for his workshop, could yours be next?

The mazes at this year's events looks set to be more Halloween tricks than Christmas treats.
