Some legends create history. Others create bloody nightmares. Under the motto “Legends Never Die”, the Halloween Horror Festival 2026 rises from the darkest corners of Movie Park and truly lives up to its name. With the new “Jason Universe” horror house, Movie Park Germany unleashes one of film history’s most famous slashers. By bringing back a killer whose brutal legacy has defined the horror genre for decades, the park breathes terrifying new life into an enduring cinematic universe.
This year’s lineup for Europe’s biggest Halloween event is further enhanced by a new spine-chilling show format in Studio 7. During “PHOBIA – The Live Horror Game Show”, brave guests face their deepest fears and become part of a nerve-wracking game that blurs the lines between madness and horror. What awaits guests at this game show is an unpredictable host, hellish live acts from around the world, freak show performances, and psychological horror— all rolled into one.
The “Ahoj-Brause Horror Lab” will feature additional scare elements and a revised storyline centered around taste testing and a testing lab for different flavors, while Movie Park is collaborating with the company Kabuki on the thematic design. The true-crime horror house “Murder Museum” will also feature an additional scene and be expanded to include a pathology room, allowing visitors to take a closer look at the crimes of the ruthless serial killers from a forensic perspective. “Legends don’t disappear—they evolve. We’re exploring this very idea with this year’s Halloween Horror Festival,” says Managing Director Thorsten Backhaus. “We’re creating a connection between the characters and elements that have shaped the horror genre and fresh ideas that make our event a new experience every time. It’s precisely this blend of tradition and innovation that gives Halloween at Movie Park its special appeal.”
With over 300 monster actors, nine haunted houses, four scare zones, and several entertainment and scare moments, the Horrorwood Studios are once again transformed into a place where film and reality blur together. Spanning 22 event days between September 26 and November 8, the 28th Halloween Horror Festival once again brings Hollywood’s darkest side to life and turns Movie Park Germany into the epicenter of horror.
Timeslot tickets for the horror houses can only be purchased online and must be booked in addition to park admission. Tickets are expected to go on sale Mid-September at www.moviepark.de/extras. The park will announce further details on its social media platforms
