Halloween Horror Nights

Halloween Horror Nights is a Halloween celebration held at the Universal parks. Near Halloween, the parks are re-themed into to haunted playgrounds. As it is apart of the parks, Jurassic Park is usually re-themed in this event.

Hollywood Version
2006-2007 (The Director's Cut and Carnival of Carnage) Surprisingly, not much was done to the Jurassic Park Area in Hollywood, besides it being renamed to Jurassic Park: In the Dark.

2008 (Where Nightmares Come Alive) This year, the ride was renamed "Jurassic Park: Nightmare" (To match in with the theme of nightmares, as Freddy Kruger, the villain from "A Nightmare on Elmstreet" who murdered children in their dreams was the icon this year). The only major change was that inside the building, "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns 'N' Roses replaced the intense Jurassic Park music, and several strobe light effects illuminated violent scenes of dinosaurs tearing apart Jurassic park workers.

2009: (You'll Wish It Were Just A Movie) Jurassic Park: The Ride has been announced to be operating during this event.

Orlando Version
When the Halloween Horror Nights was moved to Islands of Adventure until 2005, the Jurassic Park Island was more drastically changed then in Hollywood. It so far had the following themes.

2002: (Islands of Fear) JP: Extinction still had the Jurassic Park Theme, only that the dinosaurs were loose, the power was out, everyone was being stalked by carnivores, and there were ether dead or psychotic Jurassic Park employees at every turn. But the most frightening of all were the Dinosaur/Human hybrids. The main house here was Project Evilution.

2003: (The Director will see you now) The Jurassic Park theme was finally dropped in 2003. Now, the area was renamed Night Prey, a tropical island full of evil intelligent monsters and zombies.

2004: (Whats your breaking point?) Jurassic Park was mainly closed during this event. However, during peak nights, Jurassic Park, along with Toon Lagoon and The Lost Continent, were opened.

2005: (Tales of Terror) This year, Jurassic Park was re-themed into Gorewood Forest, a rather bleak forest which held the Cemetery Mines, a haunted mine full of strange creatures.
