Universal Studios announced on Thursday that they are adding “The Last of Us” franchise to its Halloween Horror Nights event beginning on Friday, September 7th at Universal Orlando Resort. It will also appear at Universal Studios Hollywood.
The haunted house allows attendees to follow in the footsteps of Joel and Ellie as they’ll encounter a variety of different enemies, including Runners, Stalkers, Clickers, and a band of hostile humans known as The Hunters.
Numerous iconic locations from the video game, including The Hotel Grand, the Pittsburgh Quarantine Zone, and “a labyrinth of dark and dank tunnels” will be included, according to the announcement.
Naughty Dog Co-President Neil Druckmann has said in a statement:
“As a massive fan – and frequent attendee – of Halloween Horror Nights, we are honored to have ‘The Last of Us’ included in this year’s lineup.
It has been an incredible thrill for us at Naughty Dog to collaborate with Universal, bringing the world of the game to life, focusing on even the tiniest details that our fans know so well.
Having just celebrated the 10th anniversary of ‘The Last of Us,’ it’s a perfect time for our fans to team up with Joel and Ellie and come face-to-terrifying-face with Clickers, Raiders and much more!”
Tickets for the haunted house are now on sale at Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Studios Orlando.
