Disney4me Posted Friday at 04:00 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 04:00 PM The temptation must have been too great and/or the planets aligned. On Friday the 13th, Universal Orlando announced a Halloween Horror Nights haunted house featuring a “Friday the 13th” icon. The maze will be called Jason Universe. The event will “pay homage to the machete-wielding slasher in a horrifying haunted house that reawakens the legend,” reads a Universal news release. Among the sights that will be seen: summer camp, Jason’s cabin, a forest and other moments from the character’s “heinous homicidal career.” The first “Friday the 13th” film was released in 1980, followed by several Jason-driven sequels. Last year, a company named Horror Inc. announced it was launching a new round of entertainment options into its Jason Universe including games, immersive experiences, merchandise and other entertainment. Its key art is echoed in the Universal release, including the funky — some might note unlucky — “UN1V3RSE” styling of the logo. A Jason Universe house will also appear at the HHN event at Universal Studios Hollywood. Halloween Horror Nights begins at Universal Studios Florida theme park on Aug. 29. Single-night tickets and select extras are on sale. Jason Universe is the second of 10 houses to be announced. The first maze revealed was tied to “Fallout,” a videogame and Amazon Prime series.
