Tijuana – Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights premieres an all-new haunted house, “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines,” headlined by an all-female ensemble of Universal’s Classic Monsters: Bride of Frankenstein, Daughter of Dracula, She-Wolf of London and mummified Egyptian princess Anck-Su-Namun, beginning Friday, August 30 at Universal Orlando Resort and Thursday, September 5 at Universal Studios Hollywood.
The haunted houses of “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines” will introduce guests to an all-new terrifying story as they find themselves at the center of the ultimate battle between two unexpected alliances of Universal’s classic female monsters.
Fans will meet Saskia Van Helsing, a fearless new huntress and daughter of the 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 rose from the dead to seek revenge for her father and destroy the Van Helsing bloodline. On a mission to kill, Dracula’s daughter, from the 1936 film 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, The Mummy, only to be intercepted by Saskia and an unlikely ally, The Bride of Frankenstein. The terrifying adventure will take visitors on a journey between the hunted and the hunters in a life and death battle in which only one bloodline will be left to survive.
As the film studio that invented the horror film genre, this haunted house at Universal Studios Hollywood will have even more relevance as it will reside within the legendary Sound Stage 12 on the studio’s back lot, the original filming location for Universal horror films such as Dracula (1931), Frankenstein (1931) and The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), among other revered classic and contemporary films.
The return of Universal’s haunted house Monstrous Classicos also reunites GRAMMY Award-winning musician SLASH with Universal Studios Hollywood in a collaboration spanning six seasons of Halloween Horror Nights. Once again, SLASH will compose original music for this new haunted house, and the music will appear alongside his previous original compositions on a limited edition vinyl album that will be sold at Universal Studios Hollywood throughout the event.
At Universal Orlando Resort, Emmy®-nominated composer Sara Barone will create an original score for this new haunted house to enhance the guest experience.
