"The Walking Dead" will invade Halloween Horror Nights

Zombies are invading Universal's Halloween Horror Nights. 

This fall, Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood are joining forces with AMC's "The Walking Dead" for their Halloween Horror Nights events. Visitors to both theme parks will be able to experience the horror of AMC's blockbuster original series, "The Walking Dead," in elaborately themed, haunted mazes. It marks the first-time Universal Studios has featured a television series at Halloween Horror Nights on both coasts. 

The Golden Globe-nominated, Emmy Award-winning, series "The Walking Dead" is based on the comic book written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics. The series tells the story of the months and years that follow after a zombie apocalypse. It follows a group of survivors, led by police officer Rick Grimes, who travel in search of a safe and secure home. "The Walking Dead" is the number-one drama series in basic cable history for adults 18-49 and adults 25-54.  

Universal Studios' Halloween creative teams are working with AMC and "The Walking Dead," to create an authentic experience that is true to the Emmy Award-winning hit series. The haunted mazes on both coasts feature eerily authentic, elaborately designed, movie-quality sets that include some of the most iconic locations and scenes from the show. Mobs of undead walkers bring to "life" the vicious, hungry, zombies from the show.
