Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights 2022: A Terrifying Encounter with Art The Clown

This autumn, Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights returns to both Orlando and Los Angeles, and one of the most anticipated experiences is the Terrifier-themed event. The event runs through the spookiest holiday of the year, ending on November 2.

The Terrifier house will feature extreme fake blood spray, fake bleach, and even a smell of feces, promising a horrifying and disgusting experience. The role of Art The Clown, the terrifying antagonist from the Terrifier series, will be played by David Howard Thornton, who describes himself as a "puncher."

Thornton has offered advice on surviving the experience, advising against becoming an impromptu pugilist when scared in a haunted house. Instead, he suggests making a "Bravery Sandwich" with friends when going through a haunted house to minimize the chances of getting targeted by performers. People in the middle of a group are less likely to freak out and are thus safer from performers' attention.

Performers are more likely to go after the first and last people walking through in a group, so it's best to stick together. Attendees at Universal Studios Hollywood are guaranteed to be drenched, so it's recommended to wear appropriate clothing.

The improvements made to the fan-favorite HHN house are blowing Thornton away, and the experience will feature "The Best Of Art The Clown" from the films, as well as some original content for fans.

Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights 2022 will also offer a snack that will trick, delight, and surprise attendees. Tickets for the event on both coasts are now on sale at universalorlando.com and universalstudioshollywood.com.

The Terrifier house can be found in both Orlando and Los Angeles, making it a must-see for fans of the series. The annual Halloween Horror Nights event is currently ongoing in Orlando and will launch on September 4 in Hollywood. So, gather your courage and prepare for a terrifying encounter with Art The Clown at this year's Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights.
