Universal Studios Hollywood Announces AMERICAN HORROR STORY: ROANOKE Halloween Horror Nights, Coming in September

Universal Studios Hollywood announces the return of FX's critically-acclaimed, Emmy® and Golden Globe® Award-winning television series AMERICAN HORROR STORY bringing Ryan Murphy's demented "Roanoke" installment to life at this year's "Halloween Horror Nights" event, beginning Friday, September 15, 2017. "American Horror Story: Roanoke" will unearth the twisted legacy of The Lost Colony of Roanoke, transporting guests to the haunted backwoods of North Carolina where they will experience the terror that has tormented the town for centuries. The all-new disturbing maze, reimagined in acute and disturbing details, will unmask a cast of deranged killers, from the cannibalistic Polk family who subsist by feeding upon innocent victims to The Butcher who thrives on human sacrifices. Trapped in a vicious circle of evil and murder, guests will find themselves in a life or death battle to outrun the nightmare of Roanoke before the vindictive spirts and demented killers soak the earth with the blood of their victims.

"The macabre mind of Ryan Murphy brings a treasure-trove of limitless possibilities to 'Halloween Horror Nights," said John Murdy, Creative Director at Universal Studios Hollywood and Executive Producer of "Halloween Horror Nights." "Because of the multitude of terrifying layers that come to life within this latest installment of FX's 'America Horror Story,' we are devoting our entire maze to uncovering every twisted detail to fully immerse our guest into the Roanoke storyline."

Captivating - and shocking - viewers since its debut in 2011, "American Horror Story" has won 15 Emmys, three Golden Globes, four Critics' Choice Awards and one People's Choice Award. The latest installment of "American Horror Story" returns to FX Fall 2017.

"Halloween Horror Nights" at Universal Studios Hollywood brings together the sickest minds in horror to immerse guests in a living, breathing, three-dimensional world of terror. Featuring an all-new slate of unrivaled film production quality mazes, frightful scare zones and a fully re-imagined "Terror Tram" experience uniquely themed to today's most definitive horror properties, "Halloween Horror Nights" will taunt, terrorize and torment guests with spine-chilling haunted attractions as part of Southern California's most extreme Halloween experience.
