All New "Universal's House of Horrors"
Universal Studio Hollywood's House of Horrors is a frightening, scream as you go, walk through experience inspired by some of the greatest Universal Studios horror movies of all time.
The most feared characters - like Dracula, Frankenstein, Chucky among many others -- will take you by surprise while you attempt to navigate your way through an ever-changing, terrorizing maze.
Be afraid . . . be very, very afraid!
This brand-new attraction is a must-see for fans of Universal horror movies. Featuring sets and props from many of the great movies, along with some good old scares, you'll relive moments from the classics. It's great that Universal has found a way of celebrating the huge heritage of horror that it has hidden from us for so long.
The attraction starts with a timeline of
horror movie posters in the queueline. Many of these posters
haven't been seen for years, and cover most of the key Universal
horror movies, right up to the present day. There's an exhibition
of props, costumes, set drawings and matte paintings from
horror movies as diverse as The Birds, Psycho, Child's Play,
Jaws and Cat People. Without spoiling it too much, you'll
discover a peaceful forest environment only disturbed by
a terrifying Wolf Man, a quiet doll house with a murderous
doll called Chucky popping out to say hello, a stunning
Frankenstein's Lab set, and you may even get to take a shower
with Mother. Make sure you listen out for a chainsaw too...
In Universal's House of Horrors, it's October 31st every day!
TIMELINE: Before the Universal House of Horrors Walkthrough, there was Van Helsing: Fortress Dracula, The Mummy Returns: Chamber of Doom and Chicken Run.
