Universal Horror Unleashed is the year-round horror entertainment complex opening in Las Vegas on August 14th of this year, and Universal just dropped new details for another one of the themed bars and original haunted house stories featuring Classic Universal Monsters. Check out the details below!
Universal Monsters Haunted House
Horror’s most emblematic icons await in the Universal Monsters haunted house, where the cinematic legends have broken free from the silver screen to stalk unwitting victims. Upon entering, you’ll pass through the crumbling mausoleum of famed monster hunter Van Helsing and into the cursed domains of creatures that defined the genre. From the shadowy halls of Castle Dracula, to the sandy tombs guarded by The Mummy, to the crackling lab where Frankenstein and The Bride still draw breath – this haunted house resurrects the most legendary monsters of all time in one continuous nightmare.
New Details on Themed Area & Bar
Prior to entering Van Helsing’s realm, you’ll be submerged into monstrous tales and face chilling stunts and interactions in Dead Storage, one of the themed areas within the abandoned production warehouse. Echoing the grandiosity of Universal’s earliest horror productions, Dead Storage will be a shadow-filled sanctuary with forgotten set pieces and eerie relics that have been reclaimed by night-dwelling creatures– vampires, a werewolf in mid-transformation, and others that emerge without warning. (Creature from the Black Lagoon… please?)
Lurking past Dead Storage lies The Boiler bar, a looming mechanical beast pulsing with heat and menace. Nestled at the heart of the venue where multiple horror zones converge, The Boiler is equal parts hellish spectacle and welcome reprieve, offering a perfect vantage point for those seeking momentary respite while remaining immersed in the action, enjoying craft cocktails underneath a monstrous flaming machine.
Universal Horror Unleashed is brought to us by the masters of horror at Universal, known for its legacy of terrifying stories and experiences, spanning from films to their award-winning Halloween Horror Nights. The all-new horror experience acts as the anchor tenant in the 20-acre expansion of AREA15, an immersive entertainment district in Las Vegas. The all-new venue opens August 14th, 2025, and tickets are on sale now!
