Halloween Horror Nights Food Through the Years
Because I’m an HHN foodie, I want to show you some of the best dishes crafted by Universal over the years.
Major Sweets Ice Cream Sandwich: inspired by “Sweet Revenge” scare zone and Maggot Covered Cheese Dog: inspired by “Bugs: Eaten Alive” original haunted house (HHN 31)
Major Sweets Ice Cream Sandwich Halloween treat featured candy-corn sugar cookies filled with sweet corn ice cream (vegetarian) and was one of the best things to eat at Halloween Horror Nights 2022.
The Maggot Covered Cheese Dog was a Korean-style hot dog with fresh mozzarella, rolled in puffed rice, topped with gochujang drizzle and black sesame seeds.

This Philly Cheese “Stake” was a savory tender shaved beef served on a black hoagie slider roll with caramelized onions, peppers, sautéed mushrooms, muenster cheese sauce and roasted garlic aioli.
Don’t let the bloody display fool you at Meetz Meats!
The Fried Zombie Brains was a unique HHN foodie experience that includes fried cauliflower florets tossed in spicy gochujang sauce and garnished with toasted sesame seeds and scallions (vegan).
Petrified Rat Tails and Pizza Skull (HHN 31)
What’s better than funnel fries with creamy crab dip, sliced scallions and seasoned with herbs and spices. Sounds too weird for you?
That’s what we got with the Petrified Rat Tails!
The Pizza Skull was one of the winners for HHN 31. This unique Pizza Skull comes with Pepperoni and cheese stuffed skulls served with a refreshing marinara dipping sauce.
Peanut Blooder Smash Burger (HHN 32)
I loved this incredible burger!
The Smash Burger came with a peanut sauce, raspberry jelly, cheddar cheese, shaved onions, jalapeno bacon and cherry peppers on a vampire bun.
Left Behind Ravioli (HHN 32)
This was a surprise hit for me when I tried them in 2023.
All of the flavors married each other so well as the mini cheese ravioli with marinara, truffle cream and tempura fried emoki mushrooms flavors danced happily in my mouth!
