Universal Horror Unleashed - Las Vegas, NV

[rageofthegods]

Yeah as soon as the budgets increased, the black walls at Hollywood basically vanished. Murdy is misblamed (and Hollywood's Chucky house blew Orlando's out the water)

In modern years one of the only exceptions have been the chucky house. I can definitely attest to that. But budget aside, i feel there is no excuse. Orlando has mastered transitional spaces. Every space in Orlando's house isn't jam packed with props and scareactors.

Anyway, I have faith in this project that there will be no intentional black walls/dead space.

yeah I don't understand how a company is gigantic as universal can't do proper stuff in Hollywood or why the budget is small.
obviously I know nothing about the behind the scenes stuff and I know nothing about the budgeting,
but I never understood why Orlando gets s better event when Hollywood has all the celebrity stuff and more famous stuff

I haven't really heard anyone mention that Egan Escapes is thriving in Vegas at a much lower price point. Now, they don't have a full cast like HHN and it's more like one scareactor that follows you around plus a different guide every other room, but their IT experience is VERY good with no breaks in theming and a few very impressive animatronics.

There's no reason to believe that Universal cannot run a haunt sustainably at the 100 dollar person price point, especially if they get the foot traffic from Meow Wolf, which is already going to be of a certain breed to accept the weird immersive experience bit.

Okay, what everyone wants to see from Vegas… the Unleashed update (Part 1). Exterior building appears painted and finished, with glass doors/windows in place. #haunt #horror #universal

Unleashed update, Part 2. Both ends of the lot are receiving some sort of paving on the ground. I figure bloated to the building will be parking, but the further corner has a lot of odd partitioning. Also added back of building, since not many post that. #haunt #horror #universal
