Quick answer: Festival of Thrills is Resorts World Sentosa’s resort-wide season of Halloween, family entertainment, after-dark experiences, dining, shopping and stays, running from 1 September to 1 November 2026.
Rather than centring the season on a single event, Festival of Thrills spreads the action across Universal Studios Singapore, Singapore Oceanarium, Adventure Cove Waterpark, WEAVE and the wider resort. You can build a visit around full-scale horror at Halloween Horror Nights 14, family-friendly Halloween fun, glowing marine experiences, puzzle-led adventures, race-season activities, shopping rewards, dining and an overnight stay.
The easiest way to plan is to start with the kind of thrill you want. Families can keep things playful and low-scare. Horror fans can make Halloween Horror Nights 14 the centrepiece. Friends can mix interactive experiences with WEAVE and Adventure Cove Waterpark. Couples can pair a headline attraction with dining and a hotel stay.

1. Make Halloween Horror Nights 14 your headline scare
Universal Studios Singapore Halloween Horror Nights 14 is the headline horror event within Festival of Thrills. It runs across 18 selected nights from 25 September to 1 November 2026, from 7.30pm to 12.30am. Tickets start from SGD68, and separate event admission is required. The event is not recommended for children under 13.
| What makes HHN14 different this year? The Karang Guni man is at the centre of HHN14: a once-familiar collector of old and unwanted objects, now reimagined as the keeper of a cursed collection hiding in the heartlands. |
|---|
The four haunted houses
Karang Guni: The Cursed Collection
Best for: Guests who want the most distinctly Singaporean story
Enter the Karang Guni man’s shop, where discarded objects and forgotten keepsakes carry sinister histories. The horror comes from turning familiar neighbourhood sights and sounds into something unsettling.
Singapore’s Most Haunted: ON AIR
Best for: Fans of local supernatural stories
Enter an abandoned broadcast studio where old sets replay Singapore’s darkest legends and the line between the programme and the audience begins to blur.
Chatterbox Charlie’s Vaudeville Horrors
Best for: Guests who enjoy theatrical horror
A warped vaudeville world of puppets, performance spaces and sinister showmanship puts you uncomfortably close to the act.
Made in Hell: XL Robotics
Best for: Sci-fi horror fans
Step inside a robotics and bioengineering facility where the pursuit of artificial immortality has pushed human and machine too far together.
The two immersive scare zones
- The Raveyard: a neon-charged afterlife party where music and undead energy turn the street into a supernatural rave.
- Necropolis: The Serpent’s Crossroads: a darker, mythic zone where ancient forces, ominous bargains and serpentine imagery create a slower-burn sense of dread.
Three live shows to break up the haunted houses
- The Scaremony: HHN14’s opening spectacle, setting the tone for the night ahead.
- Club PanDEMONium: dark humour, high-energy music and specialty acts in a returning live show.
- Nail the Beat: a supernatural collision of horror, music and mayhem featuring HamiKuma and Ponti-Ana.
Selected Universal Studios Singapore rides and attractions also operate during HHN14, giving you another way to structure the night between haunted houses, scare zones and shows. Costumes are subject to the published costume policy, and costume masks are not allowed.
For the full event dates, ticket options, Express passes and detailed house guide, see the Halloween Horror Nights 14 official guide.
2. Keep Halloween playful with TRICK or THRILLS
Not every Halloween experience at Universal Studios Singapore is designed to scare. TRICK or THRILLS brings daytime Halloween fun to the park from 1 September to 1 November 2026, with activities included in regular park admission.

- Go trick-or-treating around the park, with candy giveaways adding an easy win for families who want a classic Halloween activity without the intensity of HHN14.
- Meet Halloween-ready characters including Sanrio’s Kuromi and Shrek’s Fairy Godmother, alongside returning favourites such as Shrek and Fiona, Cookie Monster, Count von Count and Gru’s family.
- Explore Illumination’s Minion Land as it becomes a giant pumpkin patch filled with Minion-themed jack-o’-lanterns, seasonal food and photo moments.
- Combine the seasonal programme with the park’s regular rides, shows and attractions for a full Universal Studios Singapore day.

3. See Singapore Oceanarium in a new light at Into the Glowcean
Into the Glowcean runs from 5 September to 1 November 2026 and transforms Singapore Oceanarium with glowing marine art, creative activities, after-dark moments and family-friendly Halloween wonder.

There is no minimum spend required for an eligible transaction to receive a scratch card.

The campaign is open to eligible guests aged 18 and above; terms and conditions apply.
What can you win?
The headline prize is an Ultimate Thrill-Seeker Experience for two worth more than SGD5,000, bringing together some of the resort’s standout experiences. It includes a 3D2N Deluxe Suite stay at The Laurus, a Halloween Horror Nights 14 R.I.P. Tour, M·A·C Makeover Experience, Singapore Oceanarium Insider Experience, Ocean Restaurant dining experience with sommelier wine pairing and DINO-A-LIVE: Premium Dinosaur Odyssey VIP Tickets.

See the latest participating outlets, Thrill-Seeker Experiences, prizes and promotion terms on the official Festival of Thrills offers page.
9. Build a proper break into the day with Festival of Thrills dining
A Festival of Thrills itinerary can easily stretch from morning into the night, so a planned meal helps turn multiple attractions into a comfortable full-day visit rather than a race from one booking to the next.
Weekend brunch at Moutarde
Moutarde by Paul Pairet at WEAVE offers a Festival of Thrills weekend brunch on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 September, running from 11.30am to 2.30pm. Live music and a relaxed setting make it a useful midday reset before returning to the attractions or beginning an afternoon at the resort.
Themed food around the attractions
Seasonal food also appears across the festival. At Adventure Cove Waterpark, Bay Restaurant serves a Halloween menu from 1 September to 1 November, while Universal Studios Singapore adds themed treats during TRICK or THRILLS and Halloween Horror Nights 14. Availability can vary by date and venue.
| Best way to use dining If your itinerary includes both daytime and evening experiences, schedule a sit-down meal in the middle. It gives everyone time to recharge and reduces the temptation to overpack the day. |
|---|
10. Stay overnight and turn Festival of Thrills into a getaway
An overnight stay makes the most sense when your plans stretch from daytime attractions into late-night entertainment. Instead of squeezing everything into one day, you can spread the experience across a weekend and return to your room whenever you need a break.
Family Thrills Package
- 3D2N Deluxe Room stay at Equarius Hotel or Hotel Ora.
- Breakfast for two adults and two children.
- One complimentary extra bed per stay.
- SGD200 Resorts World Sentosa Gift Voucher per stay.
- Complimentary parking and minibar with daily replenishment.
| Best for Families who want the freedom to split attractions and meals across several days rather than fitting everything into one packed itinerary. |
|---|
The Ultimate HHN Weekend Escape
- 3D2N Deluxe Room stay at Hotel Ora.
- Halloween Horror Nights admission for two with early haunted-house and ride access.
- Universal Studios Singapore dining and retail vouchers.
- HHN Survival Kit for two and SGD100 Resorts World Sentosa Gift Vouchers per stay.
- Complimentary parking, minibar with daily replenishment and one complimentary weekend fitness class, subject to availability.
| Best for Friends or couples who want to make Halloween Horror Nights 14 the main event without ending the night with a late journey home. |
|---|
3D2N Epicurean Escape Package at The Laurus
For a more indulgent stay, the 3D2N Epicurean Escape Package at The Laurus includes SGD500 in Resorts World Sentosa Gift Vouchers for each night of the stay and priority reservations at selected Signature Restaurants. It is the most natural fit for couples who want dining and relaxation to be as important as the attractions.
Which hotel fits your Festival of Thrills trip?
| Hotel | Best for | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Hotel Ora | Friends, couples and practical stay-and-play trips | A modern base close to the attractions, with a pool, gym and convenient resort access. |
| Equarius Hotel | Families and guests who value more space | Spacious rooms and a calmer rainforest-edge setting. |
| The Laurus | Couples and luxury-focused stays | All-suite accommodation, personalised service and a more secluded atmosphere. |
| Hotel Michael | Families and larger groups | Family-friendly room options and convenient attraction access. |
| Crockfords Tower | Premium suite stays and privacy | All-suite accommodation and a more exclusive arrival experience. |
Compare current Festival of Thrills packages on the official Festival of Thrills page.
11. Enjoy the Festival of Thrills atmosphere beyond the attraction gates
Festival of Thrills is designed to feel resort-wide rather than confined to individual ticketed venues. Seasonal décor and lighting connect the attractions, WEAVE and hotel areas from 1 September to 1 November, so the atmosphere continues as you move between bookings.
That makes the resort easier to experience as one connected destination: you can move from a family activity to lunch, a race-season stop, an evening attraction and a hotel stay without leaving the Festival of Thrills setting.

Practical planning: what to know before you go
Festival dates
Festival of Thrills runs from 1 September to 1 November 2026. Individual experiences operate on different dates, and some are available only on selected nights or weekends.
Do you need one Festival of Thrills ticket?
No. Festival of Thrills is the umbrella season across multiple Resorts World Sentosa venues. Universal Studios Singapore, Singapore Oceanarium and Adventure Cove Waterpark have their own admission products, while Halloween Horror Nights 14 requires separate event admission. Some WEAVE experiences are free to enter or tied to shopping and dining spend.
What should families book first?
Choose the anchor attraction first - Universal Studios Singapore, Singapore Oceanarium or Adventure Cove Waterpark - then layer the seasonal activities around it. This keeps travel within the resort simple and makes it easier to judge how much can realistically fit into one day.
What should HHN14 visitors book first?
Secure your preferred HHN14 event date first because the event runs only on selected nights. Build the daytime itinerary around that fixed evening rather than the other way around.
What should you check before arriving?
- The latest operating dates and hours for seasonal activities on your visit date.
- Whether an activity is included with attraction admission or requires a separate ticket or add-on.
- Spend-and-redeem thresholds, stock availability and redemption hours at WEAVE.
- Hotel-package inclusions and room availability.
- Age guidance, costume rules and event-specific conditions.
