SeaWorld Parks in Florida, Texas and California are bringing the horror franchise “I Know What You Did Last Summer” to their Howl-O-Scream events, beginning September 11th. This franchise began in 1997 and has produced four films, with the latest release last year in 2025. This haunted house takes us back to the 90’s with the original storyline, building on additional 90’s theming for this year’s event like The Rewind bar at Orlando’s park.
“A year after running over a fisherman and dumping his body in the water, four friends reconvene when Julie receives a frightening letter telling her that their crime was seen,” recaps Rotten Tomatoes.
“We’re always looking for new ways to raise the bar on immersive entertainment, and bringing ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ to our Howl-O-Scream events is an exciting milestone for all three SeaWorld parks,” said Marc Swanson, CEO of United Parks & Resorts. “This thrilling franchise has captivated horror fans for years with its suspense and terror. Now our guests will step into that world, facing some of the same heart-pounding moments that made the film come alive. As one thrilling part of a lineup of haunted houses, scare zones, live entertainment and immersive experiences, we are excited to deliver what we believe is our most ambitious Howl-O-Scream yet.”
