USJ ハロウィン 2026 エクスプレスパス完全ガイド【値段比較・選び方】
2026-07-14 · 9分で読める
USJ Halloween Horror Nights (Sept 4 – Nov 9, 2026) is Japan's scariest theme park event. Without an Express Pass you're queueing 90-180 minutes per haunted house. But there are 6 different Express Passes at wildly different prices — and 3 of them are traps for first-timers. This guide shows which one to actually buy.
⚠️Wrong Express Pass = ¥15,000 wasted
Standard Express Pass 4 (¥7,800) does NOT cover haunted houses during Horror Nights. You need Express Pass ~Horror Night 4~ or ~Horror Night 7~. First-timers routinely buy the wrong one and can't skip lines.

Which pass to actually buy
- ●Horror-curious first-timer — Express Horror 4. Covers the 4 best houses, saves ¥5,000+ vs Horror 7
- ●Serious horror fan — Express Horror 7. Hits all 5 houses + 2 rides = full night worth
- ●Going with young kids — Express Pass 7 daytime only. Kids under 10 kicked out after dark anyway
- ●Going on Mon-Wed in Sept — Consider skipping Express entirely — 30 min waits, save ¥15,000
- ●Going on Fri-Sun — Express Horror 4 minimum, or your night is ruined
🎯Pro move: single-house upgrade at gate
Buy base ticketPR + Express Pass 4 (daytime, cheapest), then upgrade to a single haunted house entry at the park's Express Pass counter (¥3,000-4,000 per house). Only works if that specific house isn't sold out — check the USJ app first.

Optimal night strategy
- ●17:00: Enter park, ride 1-2 daytime attractions before dark
- ●18:00: Get in position for first haunted house (Express holders skip line)
- ●18:30-22:00: Do 4-5 haunted houses in optimal order (see below)
- ●22:00-23:00: Ride nighttime attractions with shorter lines
- ●23:00-23:30: Final haunted house or park exit
💡Optimal haunted house order
Do the newest/most-hyped house FIRST when adrenaline is highest and lines shortest. Save the classic returning houses for last. USJ app shows real-time wait times — start with the shortest. Never do houses in booked order — that's a rookie mistake.
FAQ
- ●Do I really need Express? On weekends + peak periods yes. Mon-Wed early Sept, probably no.
- ●What if it rains? Horror Nights continue rain or shine. Bring poncho.
- ●Age restrictions? Under 10 not admitted after dark. Warning signs are serious.
- ●Can I bring costume? YES during costume days. Otherwise no elaborate costumes.
- ●Photography inside houses? NO. Enforced strictly. Cameras confiscated.
- ●Return ticketPR if I chicken out? NO refunds. Some houses have emergency exits.
- ●Best physical prep? Wear layered clothes, running shoes, hair tied up.
- ●Any Japanese needed? Signs are bilingual. Attendants speak basic English.
Final decision framework
Going on Fri-Sun or peak dates: Express Horror 4 minimum (¥13,800-18,500). Going Mon-Wed in early Sept: skip Express, save ¥15,000, walk right in. Buying: Klook bundle for 5-8% off + English support. Do NOT buy from resellers — QR codes get flagged.
