Mike Aiello, the Senior Director of Entertainment Creative Development at Universal Orlando discussed at a recent media event how once inside the house, horror fans will step into the "light". Once inside fans will experience a "surreal landscape of vanishing walls, floating furniture and a creepy clown with a menacing smile." Will you make it back to the living, or trapped forever in this terrifying place?

This year's event has a distinctive 80s feel with Stranger Things, Killer Klown's From Outer Space and home-grown stories already announced.
