Universal Orlando confirmed it has discontinued every Fear with Express product for Halloween Horror Nights 35. Multi-night Fear passes without bundled Express will go on sale soon.
Fear with Express combined repeat admission with one-time Express access at every participating haunted house and attraction on each eligible event night. It gave frequent HHN visitors a shorter queue without buying a separate Express pass for every date.
Inside Universal's 2025 coverage shows the price difference. Rush of Fear cost $199.99 without Express and $689.99 with it. Ultimate Frequent Fear cost $419.99 without Express and $1,199.99 with it. The Express versions sold out shortly after sales opened.
Rush of Fear, Frequent Fear, Frequent Fear Plus and Ultimate Frequent Fear are still expected to return for 2026. Universal has not announced their prices or sale date.
Single-night Halloween Horror Nights Express remains available. It provides one-time Express access at all 10 haunted houses and participating attractions, but does not include event admission. A guest attending several nights would need a separate dated Express pass for each visit.
Halloween Horror Nights 35 runs Aug. 28 through Nov. 1 on select nights at Universal Studios Florida.
Update: Universal Orlando confirmed the change in a direct X reply at 1:18 p.m. EDT on July 15. Multi-night Fear passes without Express will go on sale soon.
