A viral internet sensation is taking over Universal Orlando Resort yet again.
When visiting Universal Orlando, Guests can enjoy all kinds of fun attractions including the all-new Jurassic World VelociCoaster, Jurassic Park River Adventure, The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man, Skull Island: Reign of Kong, Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem, E.T. Adventure Ride, and, of course, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

With two theme parks in Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Islands of Adventure, there is so much to see and do. During the fall, however, Halloween takes over Universal Studios Florida and Halloween Horror Nights becomes the premiere event at Universal Orlando.
Last year, a pumpkin in the haunted house who was named Lil’ Boo absolutely took over the internet and became a viral sensation.
