Last night, Universal Orlando’s 26th annual Halloween Horror Nights got its first batch of screaming guests in the form of Universal employees. Pictures started pouring in from the employees and their guests, so before HHN officially opens its doors tomorrow, here are some of the pictures that have us super excited to check it out.

This weekend, Universal Orlando’s 26th annual Halloween Horror Nights got its first batch of screaming guests in the form of Universal employees and media types. Pictures started pouring in from these early attendees, and here are some that have us super excited to check it out.

Vamp ’55 Greasers and vampires. An odd combination, but that’s the idea behind this scarezone. The center piece of the zone certainly embraces the cheesy side of this concept. Photo via emilogg/Instagram
Dead Man’s Wharf In HHN-speak, scarezone is a defined outdoor area for “scareactors” to terrify you. In this one, the dead sailors of the Annabel Lee return to haunt the living. Their ship set piece certainly looks intimidating, and it will be something to walk past it. Photo via dianacastle_/Instagram
Chance Greeting her Victims/Guests The main icon this year, Chance, will be on a stage in her very own scarezone at the front of the park. She will interact with guests, as well as with the voices in her own head. Photo via hhnstagram/Twitter
A Chance in Hell Speaking of Chance’s scarezone, it’s called A Chance in Hell and features several stages with gory mannequins such as this one. Photo via kaylamichellemackes/Instagram
The Exorcist A rare photo of the inside of a house! This Regan doll from The Exorcist is pretty creepy, even stationary with the lights on. We bet it’s going to be scream-inducing when it’s in full effect. Photo via sirchandlerblog/Twitter
The Bill and Ted Set Bill and Ted’s Excellent Halloween Adventure is a HHN staple and always great fun. It involves Bill S. Preston and Theodore Logan meeting and parodying figures in pop culture from this year. We wish we could show you more than just the set, but photos are strictly prohibited during the show.

The Academy of Villains: House of Fear Show New to HHN this year, the Academy of Villains show involves inmates from the Shadybrook Asylum engaging in high-energy dancing mixed with specialty acts. Photo via _pharside/Instagram
Halloween II Photos are prohibited inside of houses, but the outside of the Halloween II house sure does give off a creepy vibe that we are sure the inside of the house will continue. Photo via emilogg/Instagram
The Drinks Everything so far a little too much to take in sober? Not to worry, there are exclusive alcholic drinks for you to purchase to give you a little liquid courage. Chance’s Kiss is coconut and spiced rums mixed with fruit juices and watermelon schnapps, and Chance’s Curse is vodka mixed with raspberry liqueur, blue curacao, orange, and sour mix. Oh, and if you’re feeling adventurous (or crazy?) you can get a mix of both. Photo by hhnyearbook/Instagram
Tomb of the Ancients The outside of this house looks a bit like a ruined temple, which makes sense, as supposedly the inside of the house contains immortal ancient beings looking to get anyone who disturbs them. Photo via katfalkowski_art/Instagram
American Horror Story Three seasons from FX’s hit show will be represented in this house: Murder House, Freak Show, and Hotel. Expect this one to be a fairly long house with a very long wait. The 45-minute wait pictured here? Don’t expect that to last very long on the day you go. At least a lot of the line is indoors. Photo via park_journey/Twitter

Texas Chainsaw Massacre Fair warning: This house will probably be loud (chainsaws aren’t exactly quiet). This facade in front of Texas Chainsaw Massacre is actually pretty accurate to the movie — which is both cool, and terrifying. Photo via homemadehaunt/Twitter
The effects in Survive or Die The largest scarezone in the park, Survive or Die operates on the premise that all of the air on earth is now polluted, and factions are warring over a machine that can make clean air. The star effect in this scarezone is projection mapping, which is used to make it look like the buildings are crumbling down right before your eyes. Photo via themeparkreview/Twitter
The official store Not only does the merchandise this year look pretty cool, but this store, located next to Revenge of The Mummy, also serves as something of a museum, displaying several props and costumes from Horror Nights past. Photo via joeyolds/Twitter
