It’s no trick. Universal is giving you tons of treats in its Halloween Horror Nights 2026 lineup.
Rising from the dead is HamiKuma, and this time, the creature returns with monstrous merch. Starting Aug. 24, guests can showcase the character’s personality with a plaid top, plush backpack, and a plaid fanny pack featuring plush embellishments.
This isn’t the only sighting of HamiKuma. During the event, the character will debut at Universal Studios Florida with a meet-and-greet experience inside the Five & Dime store. Guests at Universal Studios Hollywood can also meet HamiKuma at select times during event nights.
Moving from scary sightings to creepy collectibles, Universal is launching horror merch at its Florida and Hollywood resorts. Universal Orlando’s lineup celebrates Halloween Horror Nights’ 35th anniversary, while Universal Studios brings merch inspired by its bloody Hollywood sign and haunted houses. But no one is safe, as both resorts offer standout staples like blood-splattered polos and acid-wash Spirit Jerseys.
Even pop-culture faves are joining the lineup. Sink your fangs into Sinners-themed merch by grabbing an earth-toned jacket, graphic tees, and cosplay-ready pieces inspired by Smoke and Stack. Items from the Upside Down go topside with the Stranger Things collection, featuring merch based on the final season. Plus, you can collect scream-worthy apparel and accessories inspired by the Ozzy Osbourne: Prince of Darkness haunted house.
These eerie oddities and more can be found creeping at Universal Orlando Resort’s Tribute Store, Universal Studios Hollywood’s Production Central and Studios Store, and online at shopuniversal.com.
