The first thing I read Saturday morning on Universal's Official Halloween Horror Nights Facebook page was, "We've got big plans for you at HHN 22. Shhhhhh...."

Hours later, here's what they posted:

"Silent Hill is waiting for you…

Universal’s Entertainment team, Konami and cast members from the upcoming film, Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, revealed to fans at Comic-Con that this nightmarish experience is coming to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood."

This means that Silent Hill is coming here this fall as a haunted maze. Silent Hill is a video game that spawned a movie franchise. The movie "Silent Hill: Revelation 3D" comes out Oct. 26.

Universal posted a teaser video (see images above) followed by the official announcement by Jim Timon, the senior vice president of entertainment at Universal Orlando Resort, and  Universal Studios Hollywood Creative Director John Murdy.

“For the first time ever, we’re tackling a video franchise and bringing it to life at Halloween Horror Nights," Timon said. "Silent Hill comes to life in its most terrifying, 'live' form.”

“As designers of Halloween Horror Nights, we’re thrilled with this partnership because we have the world of Silent Hill to bring to life," Murdy added. "Fog World, Otherworld, Pyramid Head, the nurses, [and] all of the incredible characters and environments that the fans of Silent Hill – whether it’s a video game or movie – have grown to love. We’re bringing it to life and now you’re going to experience it at Halloween Horror Nights."

Konami’s groundbreaking Silent Hill series is heralded for its psychologically-charged, horrific plot, which is centered around the disturbing, ash-covered town of Silent Hill – a place where reality gives way to other dimensions. In this demonic world, the physical laws of nature no longer apply and nightmarish monsters abound. Characters try to escape back to the safety of reality, but constant brutal attacks by disjointed, knife-wielding beings make survival seem impossible.

Silent Hill has sold more than seven million video game copies worldwide, earning more than $100 million at the box office with the first film, “Silent Hill,” and spawning a hit comic book series and graphic novels.

The highly-anticipated sequel to the original film, “Silent Hill: Revelation 3D” from producer Samuel Hadida and his company Davis Films will be released nationwide on Oct. 26 – just in time for Halloween -- by Open Road Films. The film is directed by Michael J. Bassett (Solomon Kane, Deathwatch), and features original cast members Sean Bean (HBO’s Game Of Thrones, Lord Of The Rings) and Deborah Kara Unger (The Game, 88 minutes, The Samaritan) return in "Silent Hill: Revelation 3D", starring along with rising stars Adelaide Clemens (X-Men Origins, upcoming The Great Gatsby, No One Lives) and Kit Harington (HBO’s Game Of Thrones) as well as Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix, Disturbia, NBC’s Chuck) and Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange, The Artist).

“Silent Hill has terrified fans for over a decade by pioneering psychological horror genre first through video games and moving into films and graphic novels,” said Careen Yapp, Vice President Acquisitions and Franchise Development of Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. “Now we’re giving fans the next evolution of terror as we work with the Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights teams to create a real world Silent Hill experience just as terrifying as the fans have come to expect.”

“Creating a realistic three-dimensional world based on the disturbing Silent Hill video games and films elevates Halloween Horror Nights to the next generation of twisted entertainment. Its incredibly imaginative and highly unsettling characters and environments make it the ideal fit for our event where the property can continue its reign of terror and fully immerse guests in its psychological horror,” said Murdy.

Deadline.com is also reporting that AMC’s ”The Walking Dead” is another of the featured themed attractions at this year’s event.
