LEGENDARY ICONS AWAKEN AS UNIVERSAL MONSTERS HAUNTED HOUSE TAKES SHAPE AT UNIVERSAL HORROR UNLEASHED IN LAS VEGAS
Prepare for a Year-Round Nightmare Starting August 14
Universal Destinations & Experiences is dialing up the terror as new details emerge for Universal Horror Unleashed, the year-round horror destination opening August 14, 2025, at the AREA15 District in Las Vegas. Among the chilling reveals: a nightmare-fueled Universal Monsters haunted house, a gothic scare zone called Dead Storage, and The Boiler—an infernal cocktail bar that’s as immersive as it is unsettling.
Universal Monsters Haunted House: Where Legends Come to Life (or Death)
This all-new haunted house resurrects horror’s most iconic creatures in one continuous screamfest. Visitors will begin their descent into darkness at the mausoleum of Van Helsing himself before wandering through cursed domains inspired by the Universal Monsters legacy. Whether you’re creeping through Castle Dracula, evading the cursed wrath of The Mummy, or recoiling from Frankenstein’s monstrous creations, this house promises a nonstop parade of the legends that defined an entire genre.
Dead Storage: A Forgotten Warehouse of Fear
Before entering the haunted house, guests will pass through Dead Storage, a shadow-drenched themed area set in an abandoned production warehouse. This themed area is littered with eerie props, forgotten relics, and the lurking creatures of the night—vampires, a transforming werewolf, and other nightmarish figures waiting to ambush from the darkness. It’s a cinematic graveyard of Universal’s past, brought chillingly to life.
The Boiler: Fuel Up in the Fire of Fear
After facing your fears, step into The Boiler, a mechanical nightmare of fire and steel that doubles as a bar. This grotesquely beautiful watering hole beats with infernal life, offering themed cocktails and a haunting ambiance perfect for catching your breath—if the monsters don’t find you first.
A Permanent Home for Horror Fans
Universal Horror Unleashed is Universal’s first-ever year-round horror experience. Located in Las Vegas’ immersive AREA15 entertainment district, the attraction features four hauntingly themed areas and four major haunted houses:
