On August 16, 2016, FX announced a deal had been struck to feature an "American Horror Story" exhibit at Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando for their "Halloween Horror Nights". The maze will feature sets and themes from "Murder House", "Freak Show", and "Hotel". Universal said of the experience, "Twisted scenes from "Murder House" will unleash the evil spirits that possess the Harmon estate, spiraling guests through decades of the tortured dead who previously resided there. In "Freak Show", guests will join a troupe of biological misfits in a sinister sideshow where they'll be stalked by the murderous and deformed Twisty the Clown. Finally, guests will succumb to the warped desires of The Countess after checking into the haunted Hotel Cortez, conceived from the beginning as a torture chamber for its customers."
