This Halloween 2026, guests can put their detective skills to the test during The Great Wax Heist, an all-new interactive Halloween scavenger hunt at Madame Tussauds Orlando. Available October 1-31, 2026, and included with regular admission, the limited-time experience invites guests to solve an attraction-wide Halloween mystery while uncovering the fascinating story behind Madame Tussauds’ world-famous wax figures.
“The Great Wax Heist gives guests a fun new way to experience Madame Tussauds Orlando,” said Paul Gould, General Manager of Madame Tussauds Orlando. “As they work together to solve the mystery, they’ll also discover the remarkable craftsmanship and centuries-old techniques behind our iconic wax figures. It’s an interactive Halloween experience that combines mystery, history and discovery.”
Priceless figure-making tools have mysteriously vanished from Madame Tussauds’ archives, and only attraction guests can help recover them before they are lost forever. Using their smartphones, participants will scan QR codes throughout the attraction to uncover clues, solve puzzles and track down five missing artifacts.
Each clue reveals another piece of the story behind the figure-making techniques pioneered by Marie Tussaud herself. Along the way, guests will uncover the artistry behind the creation of Madame Tussauds’ world-famous wax figures, including the lifelike figures of today’s biggest stars such as Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Selena Gomez, Simu Liu and Jeff Goldblum. Guests will discover how the techniques, developed more than 250 years ago, continue to bring their favorite celebrities, athletes and cultural icons to life.
The Great Wax Heist will be available daily from October 1-31, 2026, during regular operating hours and is included with admission to Madame Tussauds Orlando.
