Halloween Horror Nights Dining Pass and food offering for the 2025 season

The countdown to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood begins now with the destination’s final slate of announcements, including a menu of terrifying treats curated by Executive Chef Julia Thrash, the eagerly-awaited introduction of Halloween Horror Nights Dining Pass and the reveal of the anime horror short film, “Chainsaw Man: The Chaos,” based on the hit Japanese manga and anime series.

“Chainsaw Man: The Chaos” makes its Hollywood debut exclusively at Universal Studios Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights within the DreamWorks Theatre. This all-original horror anime short film arrives directly from Universal Studios Japan based on the popular Japanese manga and anime series streaming now on Crunchyroll. The film will play in-language and recounts the tale of Denji and the Devil Hunters as they battle the Halloween Horror Nights Devil and his army of zombies. Denji, resurrected into Chainsaw Man, a devil-human hybrid with protruding chainsaws from his body, ultimately takes control in a quest to combat the Devils. It’s an extreme showdown that dares guests to survive a chaos of screams and blood.
                The specially curated food and beverage items available at Halloween Horror Nights rank among the most indulgent offerings at the event, and for good reason. Executive Chef Julia Thrash and her culinary team bring the same level of details to these treats as Universal’s entertainment team brings to the haunted houses.
This year’s added bonus includes the arrival of a Halloween Horror Nights Dining Pass, inviting guests to feast on select food and beverage options for a single price. The Dining Pass is available for purchase here and at participating theme park restaurants. Each Dining Pass entitles guests to six items, consisting of two eligible entrée items and four eligible side, snack, dessert or beverage items. All eligible menu items will be designated by a Universal Studios Dining Pass logo on the restaurant menu boards. The Dining Pass is redeemable at participating food and beverage locations only and is valid on the selected visit date. Additional restrictions apply.
