Fight Breaks Out at Halloween Horror Nights

Guests gather as a group pushes metal barricades during Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios, with some attendees seemingly involved in a scuffle under the night lights.

Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Orlando is an event that many Guests look forward to every year. Unlike Walt Disney World who goes for a more family friendly atmosphere, they go for the scare factor. Last year they had to cancel the event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but this year it was brought back for the 30th Anniversary with extra safety measures in place.

Guests look on as Universal Orlando security intervenes during a sudden altercation near a metal barricade at Halloween Horror Nights, containing the situation amid the nighttime festivities.

Guests who decided to have a nice fun night at Halloween Horror Nights on Wednesday, October 13th, may have had a less enjoyable evening due to a fight that broke out. There is no official word why the fight broke out, but some Guests reported it was because two guys were trying to physically restrain the line while buying beer. It was said security let them back into their original place, and a fight broke out. This was in the line for The Haunting of Hill House. Wait time for that house was 100 minutes, so Guests tensions were high. You can see the full video here.

If you were planning on attending Halloween Horror Nights but not starting a fight, you have a little over two weeks left of the event. The last day is October 31st, 2021. Although there are new safety measures to keep everyone safe, it is still an incredible event and worth going to. Just be kind to one another and understand that everyone has been going through a lot the past few months.
