Sunway University sets the stage for Nights of Fright 11 with exclusive campus preview
This exclusive preview marks a new chapter in student engagement, bringing Malaysia's biggest Halloween festival directly to university grounds through a shared, spine-chilling experience.
The NOF 11 preview took place at the Sunway University Foyer on Aug 8, offering students and guests a first look at this year's twisted experience.
The launch was officiated by Prof Sibrandes Poppema, president of Sunway University; Lynton V. Harris, founder and chief executive officer of The Sudden Impact Entertainment Company; Prof Calvin Ho, executive director of Sunway Theme Parks and Kong Beng Kuin, chief financial officer of Sunway Theme Parks.
Also in attendance were students and lecturers from Sunway University and Monash University, alongside members of the media, invited guests and the Sunway Theme Parks management team.
Highlights included sneak peeks of this year's haunted themes, concept visuals, and the twisted narrative of the festival's latest villain - the Puppeteer.

In a bold first, this campus initiative aims to unite students under one terrifying experience; Nights Of Fright 11. And the message is clear: no matter where you study, the Puppeteer is coming.
Sunway Lagoon's iconic Nights of Fright is back and it's more horrifying than ever. This year, the Puppeteer takes control, unveiling a theatrical nightmare featuring eight haunted houses, one haunted theatre, three scare zones, 11 thrill rides, and three live show stages.
Running every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from Sept 26 to Nov 2, NOF 11 transforms Sunway Lagoon into a macabre realm of shadows, screams and sinister performances, where the Puppeteer's creations lurk at every corner.
This year, the Puppeteer pulls the strings, inviting you into a workshop where lifeless marionettes whisper secrets and every shadow hides something waiting to move. But the Puppeteer is never alone.
From the eerie glamour of Horrorwood, where cinematic nightmares come alive, to the dark legends of Karak – The Kampong Killers, each path twists into unexpected terror. Venture too far and you might find yourself trapped in tales of PontianAxe, a haunting theater where stories are told in screams rather than words.
There are places you know you should avoid but you just can't help yourself. Step into the Blind Box experience, where eerie encounters and unexpected creatures lurk around every corner.
Dare to explore them all, but remember, the Puppeteer is always watching, waiting to pull you deeper into his tangled web. Once you enter his world, you'll never walk out the same way.
Tickets are available now on the Sunway Super App (SSA), online travel agencies (OTAs), and the Sunway Lagoon website.
