Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights Announces Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines Haunted House

Universal Studios has announced a new original haunted house coming to Halloween Horror Nights with “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines,” which will feature an all-female assemblage of classic Universal Monsters.

Those monsters include The Bride of Frankenstein, Dracula’s Daughter, She-Wolf of London and the undead, mummified Egyptian princess Anck-Su-Namun.

I’ve always enjoyed these Universal Monsters mazes at Halloween Horror Nights. They are usually the coolest ones to see! So, I’m looking forward to this!

The “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines” haunted houses “will introduce guests to an all-new terrifying storyline, as they find themselves in the center of the ultimate battle between two unexpected alliances of classic female Universal Monsters.

“Fans will encounter Saskia Van Helsing, a new fearless huntress and daughter of revered Abraham Van Helsing – who killed Count Dracula by driving a stake through his heart and destroying his reign of terror. Saskia now faces Dracula’s daughter, Countess Marya, who arose from the dead to seek revenge for her father and destroy the Van Helsing bloodline.

“With a mission to kill, Dracula’s daughter, from 1936’s Dracula’s Daughter, forms a deadly alliance with the She-Wolf, inspired by the 1946 film She-Wolf of London, and Anck-Su-Namun, from the 1932 film The Mummy – only to be intercepted by Saskia and an unlikely ally, The Bride of Frankenstein.

“The terrifying adventure will take guests on a journey between the hunted and the hunters in a life and death battle with only one bloodline left to survive.”

 The press released continues: “As the movie studio that invented the horror film genre, this haunted house at Universal Studios Hollywood will have even more relevance as it will reside within legendary Sound Stage 12 on the studio back lot, the original filming location for such Universal horror movies as Dracula (1931) Frankenstein (1931) and The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), among others revered classic and contemporary films.”

 The musical SLASH will also return to create the music for the Halloween experience. “Once again, SLASH will compose an original score for this all-new haunted house, and the score will be featured along with his past original compositions on a limited-edition vinyl album that will be sold at Universal Studios Hollywood throughout the run of the event.”

At Universal Orlando Resort, Emmy-nominated composer Sara Barone will create an original score for this all-new haunted house to elevate the experience for guests.

“She recently served as composer for BBC’s “Planet Earth III,” along with Hans Zimmer and Jacob Shea, and Amazon’s “Silver and the Book of Dreams.” Barone currently participates in the Universal Composers Initiative.”

Halloween Horror Nights will launch on Friday, August 30th at Universal Orlando Resort and on Thursday, September 5th at Universal Studios Hollywood.
