Well, consider this your heads up.
Is he going to show up later?
So the fourth Langdon child is in the very last section of theMurder Housesequence, in the basement.

Hes really strange-looking, but the performers have turned that into a really great scare.
Its really creepy and disturbing.
That whole maze, they just have their own style.
David Sprague
Its different from any other maze were doing.
Its a little bit more theatrical, but it perfectly suits the brand fromAmerican Horror Story.
THE WALKING DEAD
The Walking Deadisfilled with Easter eggs.
David Sprague
That tub of pudding is in the prison.
I love our human survivor character in the prison.
Hes on an upper level, shooting at the walkers and yelling at you to keep moving.
David Sprague
So the maze is pretty much an original.
The boiler factory where Freddy met his demise is called Craven Industries.
Its our way of paying homage to him.
David Sprague
Its our love letter to Wes Craven.
And fans get a kick out of that.
I also like the fact thats this maze has different endings.
David Sprague
Sometimes Freddy wins, sometimes Jason wins.
Theres a little scenic piece the performer spins.
If Jason is the loser, itll be the Camp Crystal Lake sign that says CLOSED in bloody letters.
David Sprague
If Freddys the loser, its the headline from the Springwood Gazette that Freddy Kruegers been captured.
And itll be a headless body and Freddys holding Jasons head, or vice versa.
We wanted to give returning fans something cool if they come back.
An example: Leatherfaces room, where he lives.
In the film, theyre always yelling at him to come downstairs; presumably, hes got a room!
But you never see it.
It looks like Leatherface is cutting a body in half, but in this case the bodys in pieces.
When you walk in and see Leatherface doing that action, its incredible disturbing.
The movie that were doing in the maze isHalloween 2from 1981.
Five more days to Halloween, Halloween its this really annoying commercial.
THE EXORCIST
I think the thing most fans would completely geek out over is the spider walk.
Id say its easily one of the top three most famous things they remember.
Really, how do you do that?
So we have this kitchen scene and all these tableaus with them.
Some have broken into sherry and are drinking sherry.
Another has gotten into the sugar bowl and is laying there passed out in a sugar coma.
Another ones gotten into the cutlery, and theyre arming themselves with forks and knives.
One in the toaster getting burned alive.
I really like the snowmen, who arrive in the movie but dont necessarily move or do anything.
They just show up.
I think we have six different snowmen, and three have performers inside puppeting them.
Its terrifying when you go through and you dont expect these big huge giant things to start moving.
Its a totally different vibe.
Universal Halloween Horror Nights runs select nights through Nov. 5.
