Haunted Attraction Network

Universal is bringing a haunted house based on the 2025 horror film Sinners to Halloween Horror Nights at both Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood.

THE HAUNTED HOUSE
Both versions of the house are set inside Club Juke, the 1930s Mississippi juke joint at the center of the film, with the Smokestack Twins facing a vampire attack.

Ramón Paradoa, show director and writer at Universal Orlando Resort, said on LinkedIn that the house "celebrates the profound power of culture and music while immersing you in a terrifying vampire onslaught unlike any other." Paradoa, who developed the Orlando house with co-creator Manuel Cordero in partnership with Warner Bros., wrote that the team approached the adaptation with care for the source material. "Some scenes will make your eyes swell, while others will have you sprinting for the exit in fear," he wrote.

The two coasts typically run different versions of shared houses each year, though Universal has not specified whether that will be the case for Sinners.

The Orlando version opens as “libations flow freely, and guitar screams fill the air at the Smokestack Twins’ juke joint” before “Remmick’s troop of bloodthirsty vampires crash the party.”

The Hollywood version is similar: “This juke joint’s opening night might be your last. Pierce the veil and experience the horror of the film Sinners as the Smokestack Twins defend Club Juke from a hive mind of bloodthirsty vampires.”

ABOUT SINNERS
Sinners is the 2025 vampire horror film written, produced, and directed by Ryan Coogler. Michael B. Jordan stars in a dual role as the Smokestack Twins, Elijah “Smoke” Moore and Elias “Stack” Moore.

Set in the 1930s Mississippi Delta during the Jim Crow era, Sinners follows twin brothers Smoke and Stack Moore, who return to their hometown to open a juke joint after years away. On opening night, the club is besieged by a group of vampires led by Remmick, drawn to the supernatural musical talent of the twins' young cousin. The film blends vampire horror with the folklore and history of Delta blues and uses the genre to explore the legacy of Black art and its appropriation in American culture.

Sinners earned 16 Academy Award nominations at the 2026 ceremony, the most for any film in Oscar history. It won four, including Best Actor for Michael B. Jordan. The film also won Outstanding Motion Picture at the NAACP Image Awards, Outstanding Film at the Black Reel Awards, and Best Film and Best Director at the Alliance of Women Film Journalists awards.

HHN 2026
Halloween Horror Nights 2026 marks the Orlando event’s 35th anniversary under the theme “Infernal Carnival of Nightmares,” with Jack the Clown and Dr. Oddfellow returning as co-icons. Universal Orlando previously revealed the first original haunted house for the season, “Jack & Oddfellow: Chaos & Control,” at a MegaCon panel earlier this spring. That house tells the origin story of the rivalry between the two characters from Oddfellow’s perspective.

Halloween Horror Nights runs select nights Aug. 28 - Nov. 1, 2026, at Universal Studios Florida and Sept. 3 - Nov. 1, 2026, at Universal Studios Hollywood.
