Event, Ticketing and Express Pass Info | USJ Halloween Tips & Tricks
Universal Studios Japan’s Halloween event is unique in several ways:
- The Halloween event is available every day from Saturday, 7 Sept till Monday, 4 Nov 2019 (the cute Halloween for young families starts a day earlier, on 6 Sept)
- The seasonal programming spans the entire day, with halloween attractions opening progressively throughout the day.
- The park doesn’t close and sweep guests out in the evening.
- With the exception of special experiences that are separately charged, halloween attractions are included with park admission.
- Guests are allowed to dress up in costumes and wear masks, as long as they abide to the park’s rules.
Note: This is a very long post because it is a complete trip planning guide for the Universal Surprise Halloween event.
Haunted house-style attractions in USJ are referred as horror mazes.
Halloween Horror Nights
The classic Halloween Horror Nights experience offers the most intense horror attractions.
Biohazard: The EXTREME
‘Survival’ Horror Maze attraction | Horror Level: 5
Headlining this year’s Halloween Horror Nights in Japan is the return of RESIDENT EVIL, also known as BIOHAZARD in Japan. Built within the Palace Theater soundstage, the horror maze is based on the 2019 remake of Resident Evil 2. And just like the video game, Biohazard: The EXTREME features TWO paths, and you’ll experience either Leon’s or Claire’s story. And this is no ordinary haunted house, because you’ll be shooting zombies and fend for your life, in order to escape Raccoon City.
An entry ticket is required for this attraction, which will be distributed for free at Stage 18 from when the park opens, until tickets run out. Thereafter, the only other way is to buy Express passes, which offers reduced wait time for one pre-selected route (Leon or Claire). Learn how Japan’s HHN timed entry tickets and express passes work in my 2017 event coverage.
Area 51
Outdoor Horror Maze attraction | Horror Level: 4
The park’s immersive outdoor maze now has an alien theme, and promises to shock and surprise as you explore deeper into Area 51. Read about Deadman’s Forest (2017), a similar outdoor horror maze here.
Cult of Chucky
Horror Maze attraction | Horror Level: 5
The Cult of Chucky horror maze from 2017 has returned, offering hapless guests opportunities to run away from the iconic evil dolls in the Harrogate Hospital. Read about the 2017 Cult of Chucky horror maze here.
Space Fantasy: The Ride – Black Hole – and Cult of Chucky
Space Fantasy: The Ride – Black Hole –
Horror roller coaster ride | Horror Level: 1
The park’s unique spinning roller coaster, known for having seasonal overlays, is finally getting a horror theme. The ride takes place indoors and is usually quite dark (except for a handful of scenes), but this time there will be moments of pure darkness as the vehicles sink into the Black Hole.
SADAKO
Horror Theater Show | Horror Level: 3
Witness the curse of SADAKO (from リング The Ring) as she haunts the Terminator 2:3-D theater!
Street Zombies
Park-wide scare zones | Horror Level: 2
After years of being generic zombies appearing for random reasons, USJ’s street zombies will finally have some backstory. Controlled by a character known as Dr. Chaos, the park’s ensemble of zombies will haunt many areas of the park. Occasionally they will break out into Zombie de Dance.
Only these areas are safe from zombies: A section of Hollywood zone (leading to the park exit), Minion Park, Universal Wonderland and the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Otona Halloween (Halloween for Grown-ups)
Catered for adult park guests, 大人ハロウィーン (Otona Halloween) is a series of sophisticated Halloween experiences that “blend beauty and horror”.
Hotel Albert 2 -Requiem-
‘Completely Immersive’ Horror Maze attraction | Horror Level: Unknown
An additional ticket is required to experience this attraction.
Here’s your second chance to return to Hotel Albert and uncover more dark mysteries. While guests can still interact with the performers as part of the experience, the park mentioned that visitors to the Hotel will certainly get separated during their adventure. This immersive horror experience is about 60 minutes long, and takes place within a 4-storey complex (Stage 18).
Important Note: This attraction is rated R15 – for ages 15 and above only. As part of the experience, there are scenes where performers will touch guests. To fully enjoy this experience, guests should be able to understand and converse in Japanese.
Waiver/ Pledge: Guests will need to sign a “pledge” document, which comprises an agreement to abide by the attraction’s rules, including non-disclosure of the attraction’s content. Guests with conditions that may be aggravated by effects (including Fog/Smoke, Strobe lights, Water, Loud sounds, darkness, odours, and physical contact) – are advised not to participate for their safety. Please note that the park does not offer refunds, so only buy tickets if you are well and able to experience this attraction.
Hotel Albert: Lounge and Photo Spot
The Hotel Albert Lounge is back again, with a VIP section open only to guests who have participated in the Hotel Albert experience. For other guests, an additional ticket is required to access the lounge.
Blood Legend
Horror Theater Show | Horror Level: 3
This 10-minute show about Vampires is shown inside the park’s CINEMA 4-D attraction in the Hollywood zone.
Otona Halloween Area – Garden of the Cursed Rose –
Horror Area | Horror Level: 2
Extending from the sophisticated Halloween theme, this garden will offer a creepy walkthrough experience and photo spots.
Otona Halloween – Garden of the Cursed Rose and Banquet of the Cursed Rose
Park Side Grille – Banquet of the Cursed Rose –
Horror Restaurant | Horror Level: 1
Complete your Otona Halloween experience with a horror-themed dinner at Park Side Grille, where a tragically gruesome party will commence.
Family-Friendly Halloween (Kowa Kawa Halloween)
The family-friendly side of Halloween, こわかわハロウィーン (Kowa Kawa Halloween), is “not-so-scary and way-too-cutesy”. As USJ has age restrictions for certain horror attractions, this is an option for young families to take part in Halloween festivities.
Festa de Parade
This Mardi Gras-inspired Halloween parade is returning again with upgrades! You can even be in the heart of the bustling celebrations with a Special Area Ticket for a ‘360-degree’ surround party zone with the Halloween Franken-Minions. This special party area is held at the GRAMERCY PARK (New York zone).
Please note that this parade is very over-the-top and if you are not used to USJ’s excessively dramatic shows, it can be an overwhelming experience. There are constant sprays of confetti, bubbles, foam and ribbons. If you can’t get enough of that then the Special Area promises even more of that.
Mischievous Street
This street entertainment takes on the form of light-hearted mini shows and prank-like activities.
Happy Trick or Treat
Young children can enjoy candy-grabbing frenzy in the Happy Trick or Treat pop-up event. Each kid will be given one bag and their parents/guardians may only observe from a viewing area. Here are some of the rules from the 2017 event:
Free Candy around the park
If you see park staff members wearing pumpkin-shaped slingbags (or leather satchels with a Pumpkin charm at Hogsmeade in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter), you can say “Trick or Treat” to get free candy. This mini activity is meant for kids, but feel free to try your luck.
Universal Wonderland Season’s Joy ~Halloween version~
Universal Wonderland is USJ’s family-friendly zone where you can find Hello Kitty, Sesame Street and Snoopy characters. Apart from being an entire zone safe from street zombies, this year the area will play host to a new Meet and Greet experiences.

Halloween attractions requiring special tickets
While many of the park’s seasonal attractions are included in park admission, the following attractions require special entry tickets to enter.
Attraction | Ticket needed | How to get ticket |
---|---|---|
Hotel Albert 2 -Requiem- Immersive Horror Maze |
Otona (Grown-ups) Halloween Gorgeous Set 大人ハロウィーン・ゴージャス・セット OR Hotel Albert ホテル・アルバート完全体験パス |

Entry Ticket 整理券 |
Collect at Stage 18 (near park entrance, at Hollywood zone) |
Entry Tickets
An entry ticket will be required for either experience at Biohazard: The EXTREME. If the park isn’t crowded, or after a certain period of time (e.g. at night), the entry ticket may not be used and you will be able to just wait in line for the mazes.
As an alternative, you can purchase Express Passes for the horror maze, which works as entry tickets while significantly cutting waiting time.
USJ Halloween Express Pass and Special Tickets Info
USJ Halloween Express Passes shorten waiting time to participating attraction – one-time access to the participating attraction per pass. For horror mazes requiring special entry ticket, the Express Pass works as an entry ticket while cutting your wait time.
Note: Express Passes have designated timeslots for use at the attractions. Depending on where you buy them (e.g. at USJ’s official website), you may be able to choose the timeslots. When purchasing express passes for a group, you should buy them all together, otherwise the timings may not match up.
You can grab your USJ Surprise Halloween Express Passes from Klook directly, which is a convenient option:
Express Pass | Price |

If you are purchasing different kinds of express passes, be aware that timings may clash and you may miss some attractions. Also, all prices indicated below are starting prices as the passes are more expensive on days where higher park attendance is expected.

Halloween Horror Nights
Hi there. Thanks for all the info provided and you definitely have the most comprehensive guide for all of us! Just a question on the RIP tour: Do you know when will the RIP tour be up for sale on their website? And the tour will start at 12pm. Does that mean there will be not much time to cover the “day time” park rides? It is my first time to USJ and I hope to cover everything (both day rides & Halloween attractions) as far as possible.
Hi Dejiki, would you recommend buying tickets for Hotel Albert if one does not have any spoken command of Japanese? Thanks for your reply!
I wouldn’t recommend it. Unlike other haunted houses this is an interactive experience.
Too bad. The experience looks amazing. I would definitely go. Too bad that English doesn’t seem to be spoken very well by the actors (or employees in general) 🙁
And since nobody is allowed to tell what’s going on inside, I can’t read a report on it online either.
I’m going for Hotel Albert on Sunday! So excited about it!!!
Altz, will be excited to hear some reviews!
Hi Dejiki – do you know how late H9H is open on the weekends? Would you recommend against someone who speaks very little Japanese attending? I’ve attended these events in the US and greatly enjoy – would love to try the Osaka experience. Thanks in advance.
Universal Studios Japan’s Halloween Horror Nights are available on all days during the event period.
Most of the attractions will be okay as the important signage are in English as well. However, you’d want to skip the Hotel Albert attraction as it a live-action ‘horror theater’ experience conducted entirely in Japanese, and also requires additional fee.
