Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood have unveiled an Ozzy Osbourne-themed haunted house for Halloween Horror Nights 2026. The attraction serves as a tribute to the musician, who passed away in the summer of 2025.
Why it matters
The haunted house was developed at the request of Jack Osbourne to honor his father. His family, including Sharon Osbourne, collaborated closely with the park creative teams on the project.
A 7-night vacation package to the Orlando resort is priced at £2,305.44 per person. This follows previous music-themed attractions like the 2013 Black Sabbath maze.
