Newbies guide to Universal Orlando Resort's Halloween Horror Nights

A first timer to Universal Orlando Resort's Halloween Horror Nights has revealed the best way to beat the queues - and which zones are genuinely terrifying.

Andrew Smith, 36, walked through the gates of Universal Orlando Resort despite hating horror movies.

The spooky event involves more than a dozen haunted houses and 'scare zones' inspired by the likes of Insidious, The Quiet Place and Ghostbusters.

It runs at the theme park for selected nights around Halloween from 6:30pm to 2:00am - and comes with a warning it may be "too intense" for the young or faint hearted.
