The fearsome threesome of New Line Cinema slasher films — Jason, Freddy Krueger and Leatherface — are bringing their knives, claws and chainsaws to Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights this fall.

Universal Orlando announced today that it has reached a deal with New Line Cinema to use the three iconic horror-movie characters in its annual nighttime scare-fest event, which runs weekends around Halloween.

Its the first time New Line Cinema has given any theme park the rights to use the characters from the popular Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street and Texas Chainsaw Massacre series of movies. Universal Studios-Hollywood also will use the three characters in its Halloween event.

I’m VERY excited about this.  Recent Halloween Horror Nights have been a bit… recycled.  This year’s sounds like it’s going to be new, fresh, and fun.  I’ll definitely be there to see Freddy in person.
