🔮 Universal Horror Unleashed: Where Nightmares Become Your Reality! 💀

Universal Destinations and Experiences is about to redefine horror entertainment with its most ambitious project yet. In 2025, Las Vegas will become ground zero for a year-round horror experience that promises to push the boundaries of immersive entertainment.

Universal Horror Unleashed isn't just an attraction – it's a carefully crafted journey into the heart of cinematic terror. Spanning a 20-acre expansion at AREA15, this groundbreaking experience will feature four meticulously designed haunted houses that bring iconic horror franchises to life:

• Universal Monsters

• The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

• Scarecrow: The Reaping

• Blumhouse's The Exorcist: Believer

But the terror doesn't stop at haunted houses. Four immersive entertainment areas will provide live horror experiences that blur the lines between performance and nightmare. Guests will find themselves surrounded by meticulously themed environments, complete with specially curated food and beverage offerings that complement the horrifying atmosphere.

IMPORTANT: This experience is NOT recommended for children under 13. Intense scares and immersive horror await those brave enough to enter!

Universal is promising more than an attraction – they're creating a horror destination that will become a must-visit experience for thrill-seekers and horror enthusiasts worldwide.
