Get ready to scare yourself as the popular Halloween Horror Nights theme park returns to Universal Studios Singapore with themes like Old Changi Hospital and hawker centre nightmares.

From 30 Sept to 31 Oct, screaming pontianaks, deadly descendants and large ghoulish skeletons await unsuspecting victims at Resorts World Sentosa’s popular scare festival, which takes place across 16 selected nights.

“Horror with a distinctively Singapore flavor has been a big hit with fans in previous editions, and we are doing it again this year with two iconic local places - the derelict Old Changi Hospital and a massacre at our everyday hawker centre,” said Jason Horkin, senior vice president of attractions at Resorts World Sentosa.

Old Changi Hospital, which was used as a prison camp during the Japanese Occupation, was closed in 1997 and remains abandoned til this day. It has also been dubbed as one of the most haunted places in Singapore.

It’s one of the themes for this year’s Halloween Horror Nights’ five haunted houses. The remaining are “Hawker Centre Massacre”, “Salem Witch House”, “Bodies of Work” and “Hu Li’s Inn”.

There are also two live shows that promise to keep you at the edge of your seat. “Jack’s Recurring Nightmare Circus” is about a clown and his deranged disciples hunting for world-class aerialists, acrobats and other freaky friends, while there will also be a Day of the Dead-inspired procession called “March of the Dead”.

Early bird tickets priced at $51 and $56 are available now.
