The first Halloween Horror Nights façade has gone up behind construction walls near Mel’s Diner at Universal Studios Hollywood. The construction walls actually went up in March, but only a tent was visible behind them.
Halloween Horror Nights Façade
This façade is in the seating area between Mel’s Diner and the Palace Theater, next to the Universal Plaza space.
The façade resembles a brown, crumbling building with sections of exposed brick.
Rectangular cubbies along the top are lined with yellow, blue, and red paint.
A black support structure peeks out from behind the façade.
On the front of the façade is a gabled roof with two rows of clay shingles. This looks like it could be above the entryway.
A medallion with leafy decorations to the sides is below the gabled roof.
In addition to the main entrance, a gray tent for the haunted house is behind the façade.
Last year, this location was home to the La Llorona house with a church-inspired motif. On the most recent Halloween Horror Nights 2023 speculation map, this location was just marked with an owl symbol. Nothing else is known about the potential house. If it is owl-based, maybe the cubbies on the façade are for the birds to perch?
