The James family is rarely out of the spotlight. While LeBron James works on recovering from a right sciatica injury as he nears 41, his youngest, Zhuri, is already stepping into her own at just 11, having celebrated her birthday on October 22. Though she’s surely received plenty of gifts, mother Savannah James has something different planned. The proud mom is set to use Halloween to surprise her daughter in a way that only the James family can pull off!

In the latest edition of Everybody’s Crazy, Vannah and April McDaniels talked about the Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights. Let’s just say, April’s experience wasn’t the best. “I needed security,” she said. A man on stilts had frightened McDaniels and Savannah, and the ladies had to rescue her. “I thought I was going to die; I thought he was capable of killing me.” But it is time now for Savannah to explain why the character was behind her friend.

“He wasn’t because he was showing fear. That’s what they do. They walk up on you, and you’d be like, ‘That was cute. ‘ They leave you alone; They bypass you real quick. You lost it. They bother you.” Well, now, guess where Savannah James is taking Zhur? Yes, Halloween Horror Nights.

“I’m taking Zhuri for the first time this year,” Lady James said with a pressed voice, trying to enact the fear. “You’re going to see what she’s made of. Is that bad? Does that make her childhood short?” To be honest, April wasn’t too sure about the idea and replied, “What!?” before laughing. But according to Savannah, the 11-year-old was all in. April insisted otherwise, saying Zhuri probably didn’t even want to go. Savannah then added, “I’m taking her for her birthday later in the month. It’s a group of us.”

Given her experience, McDaniels asked with concern, “You don’t want to test it out to make sure she can go?” And Savannah James replied, “No.” Undoubtedly, the 39-year-old wants her daughter to have the perfect Halloween experience with no heads-up to prepare her for the Horror Nights.

Now, let’s understand what Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights is.

Savannah James chose Horror Nights as Zhuri’s perfect birthday gift

Every fall, Universal Studios flips the switch from movie magic to pure nightmare with Halloween Horror Nights. Across Orlando, Hollywood, Singapore, and Japan, the parks turn into sprawling horror fests filled with haunted houses, live shows, and eerie scare zones crawling with actors.

Elaborate outdoor zones keep you constantly on edge, while themed rides and chilling performances pull you deeper into the chaos. Moreover, projection mapping, intricate props, and haunting costumes create a world where every corner hides a scare. The event calls to older teens and adults craving a rush, offering a Halloween experience so intense, it feels wickedly alive. So, Savannah James is trading lullabies for jump scares this Halloween.

As Zhuri steps into the world of screams and shadows, the James household is about to experience a birthday like no other. Moreover, it feels fearless, fun, and a little bit chaotic, exactly how Savannah loves it. In the end, as the night bursts with terror and laughter, one thing remains clear: this mother-daughter duo will make horror look heartwarming.
