Now, further rumor and speculation is beginning to appear surrounding this years event. Back at the end of February, Universal Orlando filed permits for two new Halloween Horror Nights sprung tents as can be seen in the post added to X by Behind The Thrills. Universal has filed plans to construct two additional Sprungs on the storage lot behind the existing Sprung tents. Plans show two new 7200sqft buildings labeled Sprung 3 (B138A) and Sprung 4 (B138B). pic.twitter.com/QS62JQcI0M— Behind the Thrills (@BehindThrills) February 23, 2024It looks like this years Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando Resort could be bigger than 2023 with 12 rather than the usual 10 haunts available to guests. With the event being more and more crowded each year, an addition of two extra haunts is definitely much needed.The plans show the addition of two new 7200sqft buildings labeled Sprung 3 and Sprung 4 which are bigger than the existing Sprung 1 and Sprung 2 tents in the same area.According to Screamscape, we could also see the existing Fast and Furious immersive tunnel experience at Universal Studios Florida becoming a temporary extra haunt for this years Halloween Horror Nights. With the expected removal of the temporary building which has housed a smaller haunted house each year along with the demolition of the former Fear Factor show venue an extra haunt will certainly be much needed to help with capacity.
