ORLANDO, Fla. – With Halloween Horror Nights a go this year, Universal Orlando is looking for performers for the popular event.

​Universal is holding online auditions for scareactors and stilt walkers.

For scareactors, Universal is looking for “all sizes and looks” and previous experience is not required, according to the audition notice. Those interested in auditioning for hybrid stilt walkers will need previous experience and weight can’t exceed 190 pounds.  

Interested candidates will need to submit a headshot, resume, full-length photo and an audition video link. The deadline for submissions is May 9.

Halloween Horror Nights, the after-hours event, is scheduled for select nights September 3-October 31 at Universal Studios Florida. The event was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year’s event will feature 10 haunted houses, including a “Beetlejuice” house and five scare zones.
