UNIVERSAL Parks Brings HORROR to Las Vegas
I love Las Vegas, almost as much as Orlando. I mean, my wife and I were married in Vegas (no, not by Elvis… unfortunately). The entertainment offered in Las Vegas is top notch and it’s about to get even better as Universal Destinations and Experiences, creator of Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando, announced that Universal Horror Unleashed the company’s first-ever year-round horror experience, is coming to Las Vegas in 2025
In a darkened warehouse on the edge of Las Vegas, a spectacle of horror is rising. Universal Horror Unleashed. For decades, Universal’s masters of horror have created some of the world’s most frightening films and events. Now guests can experience it all in a year-round fully immersive horror experience.
The fears only felt in movies will come to bone-chilling life.
Enter the evils of four haunted houses, each with its own terrifying story: Universal Monsters, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Scarecrow: The Reaping and Blumhouse’s The Exorcist: Believer.
These haunted houses aren’t for the faint of heart—they are intense and feature elevated moments where the horror surrounds guests in unimaginable ways.
The nightmares don’t end there.
Surrounding the houses are four sinisterly themed and immersive areas, featuring unique live entertainment experiences.
In select locations, guests can enjoy eerie eateries and bars featuring horror-centric food and drink offerings.
Guests also can expect a continuously updated experience with must-see seasonal events and one-of-a-kind merchandise.
Universal Horror Unleashed, first announced in 2023, is part of the company’s plan to introduce new products to new audiences in new markets.
It is the anchor tenant in the 20-acre expansion of AREA15, the immersive entertainment district in Las Vegas.
Universal has long defined the horror genre with its classic films featuring iconic characters such as “Frankenstein,” “The Mummy” and “The Wolf Man.” Only Universal ignites this genre’s thrill and excitement in three-dimensional, full scale.
Unviersal will continue to share more details on the plans for Universal Horror Unleashed in the months ahead. For the latest information, visit www.UniversalHorrorUnleashed.com.
