Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando Resort Mike Aiello, senior director of entertainment creative development at Universal Orlando Resort, highlighted the milestone event and its combination of licensed media and original concepts. “I’ve been involved with this event for about 24 of those 35 years, and to even say that is such a massive thing, and we are pulling out all the stops for our anniversary year this year,” Aiello said.

Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando Resort There’s “Fortnitemares,” where fans will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground overcome with a threatening force. Throughout the scare zone, fans will encounter the Battle Bus along with familiar Fortnitemares characters – plus a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights – as they work to escape and claim victory.
