Terror Takes Over SeaWorld

Every corner of SeaWorld Orlando becomes a haunt-laden horror zone during Howl-O-Scream. Located at one of Florida’s most iconic theme parks, the event transforms the normally family-friendly park into a dark wonderland of fright.

From the entrance to the deepest depths of the park, guests will encounter terrifying haunted houses, scare zones crawling with creatures, and unrelenting horror-themed decor that completely changes the vibe of SeaWorld.

Dates That Will Haunt Your Calendar

Howl-O-Scream Orlando 2025 runs on select nights from September 5 to November 1, 2025. The confirmed event nights are:

Who Should Attend the Mayhem?

This intense Halloween event is tailored for adult thrill-seekers, horror aficionados, and brave teens ready to be scared silly. While it’s not suitable for young children (due to graphic content, jump scares, and eerie atmospheres), it’s ideal for friends and couples looking for a night of unforgettable frights. Whether you’re a fan of haunted houses, high-energy horror shows like Monster Stomp, or just love seeing SeaWorld in an entirely new (and darker) light, this event will deliver.

Note: For guest safety—and to keep all eyes on the actors—costumes, face paint, and masks are not allowed.

What Makes This Scream Fest So Special?

Howl-O-Scream Orlando isn’t just another haunted attraction—it’s a multi-sensory Halloween event that pushes the boundaries of fear. With elaborate sets, professional actors, and non-stop thrills, it delivers an unforgettable experience across 28 terrifying nights.

Here’s what’s waiting for you beyond the screams:

  • 5 Haunted Houses: Brave five all-new haunted houses for 2025, each with unique, chilling storylines yet to be announced, following 2024’s hits like Farm 51, where extraterrestrial terrors lurk in an abandoned farmhouse, and The Ultimate Gamble, a cursed casino with life-or-death stakes. Expect intricate sets, actors, and scares, with possible aquatic themes like a sunken ship or haunted aquarium. These houses promise intense, immersive horror for thrill-seekers.
  • 6 Scare Zones: Navigate six open-air scare zones with fresh 2025 themes, building on 2024’s Seeds of The Coven, with witches and sinister creations, and Cannibal Harbor, where bloodthirsty mariners prowl. Each zone delivers relentless jump scares and unique decor, ensuring no path is safe. New themes may include haunted docks or toxic marshes, keeping the terror unpredictable.
  • 2 Roaming Hordes: Encounter two roaming hordes, like 2024’s Sirens and Camo, who strike without warning across the park. These stealthy monsters, potentially new characters like ghostly sailors or mutant creatures, ensure fear follows you everywhere. The 2025 hordes will amplify the chaos with surprise scares.
  • 5 Themed Bars & Booze Stops: Relax at five eerie bars, such as 2024’s Sacrificial Spirits with its occult vibe or Longshoremen Tavern with pirate flair, serving cocktails like the “Blood Tide Martini.” Each bar’s spooky decor enhances the event’s chilling atmosphere. New 2025 themes may include a haunted lighthouse bar or ghostly saloon for immersive breaks.
  • Electrifying Live Shows: Enjoy shows like Monster Stomp, featuring tap-dancing vampires, and Siren’s Song, an outdoor performance with haunting melodies. Late-night DJ dance parties keep the adrenaline pumping. New 2025 shows will blend horror and entertainment for thrilling breaks from the scares.
  • Night Rides With a Twist: Ride SeaWorld’s coasters like Mako, Manta, Pipeline: The Surf Coaster, and Infinity Falls in the dark, enhanced with eerie lighting and fog effects. These night rides add heart-pounding thrills to the horror. Expect 2025 to continue this tradition with new atmospheric twists.
