As always at HHN Orlando, several of their scare houses are bespoke ideas and original concepts that don't have anything to do with existing horror IP. That's right, they're purely original scares! They're just based around some of the most revered horror tropes with a standard HHN twist.
Below, NBC Insider will update the rundown of what's been announced for the 2024 season, so check back for new houses!
Slaughter Sinema 2
Clearly a sequel to the HHN house Slaughter Sinema introduced at Halloween Horror Nights 28, Slaughter Sinema 2 is likely to best that original concept with new stakes and scares. Here's hoping this horror sequel will also be set in a drive-in movie theater, which is the perfect place to see any horror film. This one has a lot of creative promise with a new gallery of faux horror films and classic B-movies throughout the house, which means plenty of repeat factor because you'll likely miss a lot running from the threats inside.
Goblin's Feast
For those who love a bit of fantasy cosplay and immersive adventure, HHN's Goblin Feast house sounds like Shrek's nightmares come true. Taking guests off the typical horror beaten path, HHN teased the concept as such: "Welcome to the Goblin’s Feast Tavern and visit the goblin village where a lavish feast is being prepared for goblins, orcs, hobgoblins and witches. And you’re the main course." In other words, don't come with an appetite and make sure your laces are tied because YOU are on the menu.

Major Sweets Candy Factory
We all know what happens when a candy-themed activation goes wrong, and this house is an inspired idea riffing on the dark side of a candy maker with the intention of scaring the kids silly. Per HHN, the theme of this house is: "You’ve been invited to chaperone a field trip to a candy factory. The deadly delicious treats turn the kids into sugar-fueled fiends." Watch out for the most frightening sugar rushes of your life!
The Museum: Deadly Exhibits
Who wouldn't want to see what's inside the cabinet of Dr. Caligari? Or, catch a peep at the experiments of Dr. Jekyll? The HHN house seems to be alluding to a repository of everything dank and bizarre in the new folklore museum exhibit, The Rotting Stone. HHN teases the threat as, "an evil escapes from within, destroying everything in its path."
The Monsters of Latin America
Come face-to-face with some of these infamous and legendary monsters that children and adults across Latin America have been afraid are going bump in the night for generations. The announcement notes: “With La Muerte as your guide, you’ll be begging for piedad from these three terrifying legends: Tlahuelpuchi, La Lechuza and El Silbón.”
Triplets of Terror
Needless to say, these aren’t your ordinary triplets. So, it stands to reason their birthday party will be anything but ordinary as well. Get spooked with a cavalcade of blood and gore when the twisted Barmy triplets celebrate by recreating their family's murders.
