UNIVERSAL HORROR UNLEASHED - Face Your Fears

The iconic Universal Studios "Halloween Horror Nights" unleashes a year-round attraction at Area 15 District's new ZONE 2...

Last week, VEGAS 411 had a blast attending several very different experiences. They highlight and exemplify the never-ending ways you can enjoy your time in Sin City. We start with a visit to a major addition to Sin City's movie-themed offerings. UNIVERSAL HORROR UNLEASHED is a year-round spinoff of "Halloween Horror Nights" events at Universal Studios Parks. It opened to the public on August 14th. VEGAS 411 was invited to a special sneak preview, during which we got to sample various "haunted houses", live shows, and food/beverage offerings. UNIVERSAL HORROR UNLEASHED is part of an expansion to Area 15 District known as Zone 2. The additional campus addition includes a seven-story parking garage, which is remarkably free...at least for now.

Four Sinister Haunted Houses - each features dedicated show moments with deeper storytelling that places guests in the midst of horror.

"Face the dust storms of the Midwest in SCARECROW: THE REAPING, an original story that will take them back in time to a dry, barren 1930s farmland ravaged by farmers and taken over by horrifying inhabitants arising from the land: bloodthirsty scarecrows bent on revenge."

"Take a journey through the 1974 horror masterpiece in the “THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE” haunted house, placing them in the footsteps of the victims as they face horrifying iconic scenes and characters. Guests will come face-to-face with Leatherface and every member of his deranged family and their victims, as the terrifying sound of chainsaws haunts them at every turn."

"Descend into demonic possession in Blumhouse’s THE EXORCIST: BELIEVER, and find themselves deep in the shadowy woods where best friends Katherine and Angela mysteriously vanish – only to be discovered days later with no memory of what happened. From there, the terror builds room by room as the girls’ disturbing transformation unfolds, going from the hospital to the girls’ homes to witnessing the actual exorcism as everyone is surrounded by supernatural chaos."

"Face cinema’s most feared icons in UNIVERSAL MONSTERS, where horror legends have broken free from the silver screen to stalk unwitting victims. 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."

Four Themed Areas will place guests in the center stage of horror, offering opportunities to interact with characters for a deeply engaging experience: Kill Vault, Prop Graveyard, Dead Storage, and Jack's Alley.

Delicious Chef-Inspired Food and Beverages - a variety of themed shareable bites and specialty cocktails in designated areas, including Rough Cuts, Premiere House, Boiler Bar, and Jack's Alley Bar.

Terrifying Collection of Exclusive Merchandise - After braving the four haunted houses, experiencing the spine-tingling live entertainment, and tasting themed food and beverages, horror fans can shop at the all-new retail location where a variety of scientific and supernatural artifacts and curiosities surround guests, including apparel, collectibles, jewelry, accessories, and more.

UNIVERSAL HORROR UNLEASHED is located at 3051 S. Rancho Drive near Palace Station Casino. The attraction is open Thursday through Monday from 2 pm to 10 pm. Tickets start at $59.99 for Nevada residents, $69.99 for General Admission. VIP Experience and Unlimited Access packages are available.
