I’m not a very jumpy person.Now this isn’t chest-puffing machismo or my attempt to look well ‘ard on the Internet. In truth, I suspect I’ve innocculated myself by watching too many horror movies at an early age.

Stranger Things Maze at Universal's Halloween Horror Nights 13 IMAGES

But I have to admit: The Stranger Things maze at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights got me...It’s the headline maze at this years’s epic Halloween event at Universal Studios, which is now open and runs right until November 3rd. There are 10 mazes in total across the park – five draw on familiar properties, including Halloween 4 and Poltergeist, while the remaining gauntlets offer up original nightmares ranging from deranged carnies to twisted takes on familiar fairytale characters.But the production on the Stranger Things haunted house was particularly impressive.If you want to take a closer look at the maze, swipe through the gallery below which has a mixture of Universal’s lovely high-res pictures of the attraction mixed with several panicked ones taken in the dark on my iPhone. (I did my best, but taking good pictures of demogorgons is challenging.)Or watch the video above in which we relay our first-hand account of walking through the maze and you can see some of those scares for yourself.In the space of a few minutes, you're led through a distilled and disturbing staging of Season One. From the Byers home to the lab and eventually the Upside Down – almost every memorable moment and location from the show is recreated with impressive accuracy. Equally the actors responsible for the scares bear an impressive resemblance to their Netflix counterparts, too. The demogorgons are arguably even more lifelike since here they're realised physically through animatronics and live actors, whereas in the Duffer Brothers show they were brought to life using visual effects.
