Universal Orlando just dropped another huge scare zone reveal for Halloween Horror Nights 35, and this one is a clown lover’s worst nightmare in the best possible way. Downtown Clowntown transforms the city that never sleeps into a waking nightmare, and it brings together the Killer Klowns from Outer Space with none other than Art the Clown from the Terrifier franchise. This is a massive crossover moment for horror fans, since it means two of the most iconic killer clowns in horror history will be roaming the same streets this fall.
The announcement description paints a vivid picture, warning that the city becomes overrun by clownsfolk who cannot wait to tear guests limb from limb. Pairing the campy, alien invasion chaos of the Killer Klowns with the brutal, silent menace of Art the Clown gives this scare zone a completely different flavor than anything else revealed so far this year. It also adds yet another layer to what is already shaping up to be a stacked lineup for HHN’s 35th anniversary, joining previously announced zones like Infernal Carnival of Nightmares starring Jack the Clown and Dr. Oddfellow, Sideshow of Decay, and the Fortnitemares inspired Freaky Fields.
With Downtown Clowntown now confirmed, Halloween Horror Nights 35 is leaning hard into its clown heavy year, and honestly it makes sense for a milestone anniversary event. Tickets for the event are on sale now, and Universal has not yet detailed exactly what guests can expect scare wise beyond the ominous teaser, but if the description is any indication, this zone is going to be relentless.
Halloween Horror Nights 35 runs select nights from August 28 through November 1 at Universal Studios Florida. Are you excited to see Art the Clown and the Killer Klowns terrorizing the same street together? Let us know in the comments.
