The backstory for the maze finds an ancient artifact unleashing a vengeful spirit who threatens to turn everyone’s veins into rivers of ice.
Along the way, Horror Nights visitors will pass through a top secret research lab, an occult bookshop and New York City’s dank sewers — all while trying to escape an army of ghastly creatures bent on cracking bones.

The Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire haunted house is the second maze based on a major Hollywood franchise — joining the A Quiet Place maze in the 2024 Horror Nights lineup coming to Universal Studios Hollywood.
Horror Nights visitors will try to silently navigate the Quiet Place maze without making a noise or straying from the sand path survivors traveled in the films. Everyone entering the maze will receive the same warning: If they hear you, they will hunt you.
