Heading to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood? Learn more about one of this year's new mazes that takes you "Into The Further."Kristian and Fernanda Hanson were invited by Universal to check out the event for Daily Dead and here’s what Kristian had to say:
"Insidious is a horror film that caught the world by storm and recently James Wan came back to direct the sequel Chapter 2. Halloween Horror Nights decided to transform this movie into one of their mazes, and the fans will not be disappointed. From the onset, the individual walks into the house and you feel as if you are back inside the film franchise. From the creepy demon to the psychopath spirit in the recent sequel, the house is filled with screams and jumps that will make the most avid horror fan jump as they are introduced to THE FURTHER."
On top of the exclusive photos below, we also have some video footage of the Insidious maze thanks to Dan McNeely from ThemeParkHD!
"The nightmare journey focuses on the evil spirit that has haunted the Lambert clan for two generations. Maze-goers will travel into the world of the dead to confront the malicious souls hell-bent on bringing suffering to the living.
“To bring the paranormal world of ‘Insidious’ to life, we’re collaborating with the film’s director James Wan, writer/co-star Leigh Whannell and producer Jason Blum, who all happen to be huge fans of our Halloween event,” said “Halloween Horror Nights” Creative Director John Murdy. “It’s an incredible opportunity to partner with filmmakers who share our passion for bringing nightmares of the silver screen to life and who are committed to making every scene and every nuance of the maze as authentic and unsettling as their film.”
The “Insidious: Into The Further” terror begins even before guests enter the maze, as paranormal investigators ‘Tucker’ and ‘Specs’ anxiously forewarn them about the evil that lurks within. Visitors soon learn that the pair’s caution should have been heeded, as they traverse through the most frightening scenes from both films.
“This attraction takes guests through the utter horror of both ‘Insidious’ and ‘Insidious: Chapter 2’,” said Director James Wan. “The Lipstick Demon, The Long Haired Fiend and the victims he murdered – they all come together in a perfect storm within the maze. In fact, I think this maze is the closest you can come to experiencing the kind of fear portrayed in our films, without actually living through it yourself.”"
