Universal Studios has teamed up with video game developer Naughty Dog to help bring the world of The Last of Us to life. The theme park operator announced today that one of the haunted houses at this year's Halloween Horror Nights will be themed after the popular PlayStation video game franchise (and now HBO television series).

“As a massive fan – and frequent attendee – of Halloween Horror Nights, we are honored to have ‘The Last of Us’ included in this year’s lineup. It has been an incredible thrill for us at Naughty Dog to collaborate with Universal, bringing the world of the game to life, focusing on even the tiniest details that our fans know so well,” said Naughty Dog Co-President Neil Druckmann. “Having just celebrated the 10th anniversary of ‘The Last of Us,’ it’s a perfect time for our fans to team up with Joel and Ellie and come face-to-terrifying-face with Clickers, Raiders and much more!”

The Last of Us haunted house aims to recreate the post-apocalyptic world of The Last of Us, specifically taking guests on the same brutal journey that the game's protagonists Joel and Ellie endured. For those who didn't play the game or watch the HBO television series adaptation, The Last of Us takes place years after a fungal virus runs rampant across the world, destroying civilization and turning much of the population into mutated creatures known as the Infected. Joel, a hardened survivor, and Ellie, a 14-year-old girl who may be humanity's last hope, embark on a journey across the ravaged United States in search of a group known as the Fireflies.

Guests will follow in the footsteps of Joel and Elie as they navigate the Pittsburgh Quarantine Zone, exploring iconic locations such as the "creepy and desolate The Hotel Grand and a labyrinth of dark and dank tunnels," while trying to survive the Infected (Runners, Stalkers and Clickers) as well as The Hunters, a band of hostile humans."

“We are excited to bring ‘The Last of Us’ to life in a terrifying haunted house that is true to the spirit of this popular video game featuring our heroes, Joel and Ellie, Clickers and more,” added Lora Sauls, Assistant Director, Creative Development and Show Direction at Universal Orlando Resort. “The world inside the game offers a multitude of suspenseful and horrifying opportunities to provide guests with a one-of-a-kind experience that can only be found at Halloween Horror Nights,” added John Murdy, Executive Producer of Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood.

The Last of Us haunted house will be featured at Halloween Horror Nights in both Universal Orlando Resort as well as Universal Studios Hollywood. Tickets for the special event are on sale now.
