Universal Redirects Revenge of the Mummy Queue Outside

Fans say the change likely frees the attraction’s indoor extended queue for Halloween Horror Nights build-out, but Universal has not confirmed that plan.

Overview

  • Temporary covered switchback tents and queue rails were installed Wednesday to route Revenge of the Mummy guests outside while the ride remains open and running normally.
  • Photos shared on X by a Halloween Horror Nights fan account prompted much of the reporting and show the new outdoor overflow line in front of the attraction.
  • Longtime visitors note this is a familiar operational tactic that lets crews convert the indoor extended queue into the seasonal Tribute Store without closing the ride.
  • Outlets say visible HHN preparatory work usually grows through July and August, so more construction walls and themed infrastructure are likely to appear before the event.
  • This year’s Halloween Horror Nights marks the 35th anniversary of the event, which has increased fan attention to early signs of build-out even though Universal has not issued an official statement.
