The entrance of Universal Studios Singapore is now adorned with two grim pillars, welcoming guests to the new world ruled by the The Minister of Evil.

These solemn stone pillars have the HHN4 logo embedded into them and are likely to glow at night.

Big screen in the middle, ensuring a decent view of the new leader, for all.

I’m sure we’ll all be blinded with envy of the Minister’s prowess… in some ways or another. Look at all those lights!

◂ Demoncracy ▸

Sting Alley (Water Street of New York zone) is now crammed with countless cupboards and cabinets. Terrifying surprises will await guests at every turn.

It’s just furniture. But is anyone else feeling the chills?

More curious, gigantic toys and a twisted playground lie ahead towards the path to Sci-Fi City.

Beyond closets, cabinets and playgrounds: A trail of iron meshes lining a cramped corridor for the damned.

Yet to be cursed. Enjoy it while it lasts.

◂ Scary Tales ▸

Halloween Horror Nights 4 - Before Dark - Scary Tales.. coming soon

Minimal stuff to report here. Well, except some wires appearing around the area:

The frayed, broken ropes around the canopy at the entrance to Jurassic Park have even replaced.

Fixtures are installed at two sides, probably to light up the giant storybook pages at this scare zone.

◂ The Haunted Houses ▸

Construction is ongoing at all haunted houses. Unless the park is kind enough to extend a behind-the-scenes tour for us, we’ll only have these limited shots from the outside. I must warn everyone, DO NOT trespass, please! Construction is going on at these backstage areas, so for your own safety, don’t wander about. Unless you don’t mind having something haunting you for the rest of the year.

One of the military buildings at MATI CAMP. Some metal fences (from Total Lockdown, in 2012?) spotted at the bottom left.

Halloween Horror Nights 4 - Before Dark - Jing's Revenge

Looks like there’s no running from Jing’s Revenge, with that maze-like layout! Can’t wait.

Halloween Horror Nights 4 - Before Dark - THE L.A.B

Some alien spaceship thing spotted at The L.A.B.


Stay tuned for the next BEFORE DARK…

    I presume the next USS update for Sep 2014 will be this coming weekend? 😀

    Anyway hopefully I’m able to see you this coming weekend for the Puss In Boots stage show update. I will be there on both days (Saturday and Sunday). Just wanna get to know who you are 😀

    Awesome photos. Thanks for sharing! Wish I could visit HHN in Singapore.

    According to HHN4 website, from the map, the retail store at BSG is open. Does this mean BSG is reopening this month?
