My wish for Classic Monsters:
I enter the village that is build on a hill. It is a non descriptive, but clearly European, village with a castle. It is forgotten by time and run down. But it is a living village and the detailing is amazing.
There is a inn where I order a beer. They also make mix drinks based on the local folklore. There is one that should get rid of vampires and it's non alcohol. Although it looks like blood and it's really good. There are drinks with smoke in it and even something that looks like an eye ball. This village is strange...
Again the detail is amazing as are the shops. I just found this one close to the water. The store keeper tells about the monster from the black lagoon. And guess what, we saw it! (we will see more, the boat ride will be and expansion, at least that is what the store keeper whispered in my ear.)
I love a good sit down restaurant and although the outside is a bit shabby, it's also inviting enough and the food is great. Some German and Austria fare is served and it is great. I am urged to eat some garlic bread and I shouldn't go out when there is a full moon for whatever reason.
I ignore good advise as the castle is enticing and I want, no I need to visit it. To say it looks stunning is an understatement.
After entering the main hall I board a ride vehicle, 4 in a row. The seats look like Gothic chairs after I got an invitation from the count for a spectacular tour trough his castle.
It's an scary but beautiful castle.
During our ride we see Dracula an go after him out of a window in the castle to the village where we enter a bedroom where a beautiful woman awakes. He charms her but then bite her neck so she can live forever with him. I love a good love story.
Now it's time to visit the good doctor to show him some bite marks that concern me. Frankenstein lives in a nice mansion although the strange graveyard I had to walk trough first is just a bit less inviting.
I get on a comfortable couch, there are a lot of them all in a conga line. It takes me trough the spooky story of the doctor who is working hard to dig up a body. There are more corpses on the cart. Igor is a bit funny although he's also a bit sad.
Eventually we get to a large room where the monster is created. Are that real Tesla coils used in this ride? Yes they are!
As we enter we say goodbye tot he good doctor. I make my way to the huge stadium. I heard Puy Du Fou created a show for Universal and it's Monsters against the world. Like a Marvel Avangers movie the bad creators and hunters against the good monsters battle it out in a huge production that combines stunts, special effect and illusions to create a mind blowing extravaganza.
