Universal Orlando has announced The Museum: Deadly Exhibits , a new original haunted house that will be featured at Halloween Horror Nights 33. This is the 4th original house announcement we've gotten in the past week, and just like the other houses - Universal only provided a summary of the hous

This has potential for a lot of fun set pieces and easter eggs. Wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being a favorite.

This house has lots of potential!

A folk museum is not a natural history museum, so probably a no on mummies as well as dinosaur skeletons and the like. That said, not sure which culture this museum focuses on, tho "The Rotting Stone" sounds vaguely colonial American. Still no idea where this is going yet, which makes it somewhat interesting.

Kinda wondering if this is a stealth icon house. The “folklore exhibit” could have the black heart blob from the ad (the rotting stone) or some artifact in it that infects the town and could tie together the other houses as corruptions emanating from the ancient god?

"Nightmare at the Museum" is a horror concept that has fascinated me for years and I'm excited to finally see some version of that concept actually happen!

I love the thought of going through different exhibits; Egyptian Tombs, Old West dioramas, Dinosaur Bones, Taxidermied Animals; and all throughout there being parts of those exhibits coming after you and trying to force you to join them as your own new exhibit! And I especially love the thought that because it's a museum, the sets and dioramas can look a little bit chintzy! The original house concepts so far really do a wonderful job straddling the line between campy and scary, and I'm incredibly excited to see how it all turns out in August!

Possible that it's a reference to this? Or just a play on words "Rolling Stone" to "Rotting Stone."

It took me a second read of the description to NOT read "The Rotting Stone" as "The Rolling Stones"
got so excited about the announcement that I read too fast for my own good lol was SO confused on that first read

It would have been cool to see if this museum tied into the Massacre at The Museum scene from Case Files.

Hmmm folklore. We getting the jersey devil, mothman, wendingo, and maybe return of Krampus?

 

[Grabnar]

I think you could classify this as a Rotting Stone

I second a Cryptid Folklore Creatures Museum haha

I think it's folklore more like ancient cultures / pagan cultures and their creatures. hopefully some references to Vikings Undead, the mummy, or Hades Gates of Ruin, almost like Tomb of the Ancients. But cryptids would be very fun if they do that route.

it'll be nifty to see them go that route, I'm guessing this is Sprung Tent 1 now? I hope there is a good facade for this one, it would kill in a soundstage though.

This is giving me Case Files vibes in the best possible way. As mentioned already, wouldn't be surprised if this is the 'IYKYK' house with lots of references.

And with already a couple originals that will be call backs to previous incarnated houses and easter eggs, this one will no different I'm sure, I like the blend of comedy, dark comedy and straight dark toned originals this year, this original line up is looking good so far.

...destroying everything in its path.

Good to finally see a house based on my relationship history!

[TheCodeMan95]

The "folklore" aspect really captures my interest. Also like others have said - it is virtually guaranteed that there will be a ton of Easter Eggs in here.

You were thinking of a different type of fossil.
