The summer is almost over, and fall is looking to be super scary at the Universal Orlando Resort with the annual celebration of all things evil: Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights. In fact, most experts of evil find Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando to be the biggest scare of the year.

Halloween Horror Nights isn’t the only exciting event going down at the Universal Orlando Resort this fall either. The Universal Orlando Resort will be home to ballroom dancers and Christian rock bands in the coming months as well!

Universal Orlando Resort – Ballroom Dance Competition
The Loews Royal Pacific Resort at the Universal Orlando Resort is playing host to the hottest ballroom dancers in the world this September, with the 38th Annual U.S. Dance Championships.

This ballroom dancing extravaganza hits the dance floor from Tuesday, Sept. 2, through Saturday, Sept. 6, and will whittle down the best dancer out of 700 men and women from 30 countries.

Universal Orlando Resort – Rock the Universe 2008
That same weekend brings some of Christian music’s best talents to Universal Studios Florida, with concerts on both Friday, Sept. 5, and Saturday, Sept. 6. Here’s the hot lineup for this year’s Rock the Universe:

Universal Orlando Resort – Halloween Horror Nights
The scariest event of all spans the entire month of October and is promising the most immersive Halloween party ever.

It’s no secret that Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights is the scariest Halloween event in town. Universal Studios Florida totally transforms into a theme park fit for nightmares. As such, this is not a Halloween adventure recommended for children. In the interest of guest safety, there are no costumes or masks allowed at Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights.

Halloween Horror Nights is a separate Universal ticket event held at Universal Studios Florida, and admission is not included with any regular Universal ticket.
