Universal Horror Unleashed - Las Vegas, NV

[DTH]

All speculation aside, I think I'd definitely go check it out depending on the price. If it's the same quality or higher, it'd be a fun time. If there are at least 5-6 mazes, and they are IPs or originals I'd really want to see, I'd be happy to go. The only issue is I'd probably have zero time during October to actually do it.

I would absolutely go check out HHN-Vegas, if it were to occur.

"The company also announced plans for a year-round, horror-focused destination in Las Vegas. At 110,000 square feet, it will be the anchor tenant in a 20-acre expansion of Area15, an entertainment district that opened in Las Vegas in 2020. The location, near the city’s famous Strip and off of the 15 freeway, already includes themed restaurants and entertainment attractions such as Meow Wolf’s Omega Mart, an immersive art experience."

Bloomberg - Are you a robot?

 

[Parkscope Joe]

Can't believe this is happening!

…

I just don’t see that being a thing.

Whoops.

It's Area15 so think something like MeowWolf Omega Mart or Winkvision in scope.

Whoa.

 

[Brian G.]

Whoa.

You mean Woah.

I use to live in Vegas and I can tell you right now that the fright industry is huge there. Seems like Universal is filling in the gap left when AdventureDome (indoor theme park) stopped hosting FrightDome. I'm very excited to see what this looks like.

Um.. yeah. I totally know what they are, lol

In all seriousness this could be pretty cool. I imagine it's only enough room for maybe what.. 2-3 mazes?

Depends in how much space they get and how creative it gets.


Really wondering if Murdy is involved here.

My main concern here is HHN has a hard enough keeping cast for a few months let alone a entire year...

Placing my bets on “no”.

Would be fun to see a few permanent houses with Walking Dead Attraction level special effects and sets.

Deadline has this to say:

A Universal Parks & Resorts spokesperson tells Deadline that the company also plans an entirely new, permanent horror-themed entertainment experience in Las Vegas based on its parks’ wildly popular Halloween Horror Nights. The concept aims to bring to life Universal’s vast library of classic horror films with a variety of unique, immersive horror-centric experiences, bars and restaurants, seasonal events, and merchandise.

Sounds like an IP play along with tapping into Vegas haunt market. Any bets on what will come?
