Things to do in Singapore: Halloween special

From haunted houses to horror movie moments to twisted tales of terror, there's loads of fun stacked up for Halloween this year. Here are things to do in Singapore that you can check out...

Halloween Horror Nights 14

This season, Universal Studios Singapore is getting into main character terror with a ghoulish version of the legendary Karang Guni Man, and he’s trading old newspapers for a cursed collection of pure nightmares.

Check out four unhinged haunted houses — ranging from cursed shophouses and eerie broadcast studios to killer robotics labs. You also get roller coasters in pitch-black darkness plus chaotic live shows featuring HamiKuma. All you need to do is try to make it out alive.

Until Nov 1 at Universal Studios Singapore, Resorts World Sentosa.

Scaredy-Cats Anonymous

Forget haunted houses. The real horror stories are those that happen in real life. This Halloween, swap spooky tales, share your deepest arts-scene nightmares and find out what keeps fellow creatives up at night. 

Think ghost stories with a twist or the very real horrors of – gasp! – rejection letters. Come for the vibes and leave with a few new nightmares to think about. Your usual Halloween plans could never.

Oct 31, 7.30pm at Studio 5, Intercultural Theatre Institute (ITI).

Haw Ror Villa 5: Back From The Dead

If you thought Haw Par Villa was creepy during the day, wait till you see it at night. "Singapore's most cursed cultural park" turns into an unhinged playground of Asian folklore horrors this Halloween. Forget basic Hollywood tropes. 

This is local folklore, hellish myths, and deep childhood nostalgia served in four eerie zones, via interactive puzzle hunts in Hell's Museum, spooky performance tours, eerie mazes, and total chaos. Test which of your friends actually has spine and who will scream at their own shadow.

Until Nov 15, 6.30pm onwards at Haw Par Villa, 262 Pasir Panjang Road, Singapore 118628.

Thirteenth Night

The Second Breakfast Company, a not-for-profit theatre company founded by youths for youths, is hosting a tiny theatre party. Expect food, drinks, some communal readings, storytelling and buckets of fun with fellow theatre lovers and practitioners.

Play Dead

A Halloween rave party? Why not?
