Universal Studios is set to thrill horror enthusiasts with the debut of "Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines," an all-original haunted house featuring a powerhouse lineup of classic Universal Monsters. Starting Friday, August 30 at Universal Orlando Resort and Thursday, September 5 at Universal Studios Hollywood, this chilling attraction will showcase iconic female monsters including The Bride of Frankenstein, Dracula's Daughter, She-Wolf of London, and the mummified Egyptian princess Anck-Su-Namun.
The "Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines" haunted house promises to immerse guests in a spine-tingling narrative. Visitors will find themselves amid a fierce battle between two unlikely alliances of classic female monsters. The story introduces Saskia Van Helsing, a courageous huntress, and daughter of the legendary Abraham Van Helsing, who famously vanquished Count Dracula. Saskia is now pitted against Countess Marya, Dracula's resurrected daughter, who seeks vengeance and aims to obliterate the Van Helsing legacy.
In her quest for revenge, Countess Marya forms a formidable alliance with the She-Wolf of London, inspired by the 1946 film, and Anck-Su-Namun, from the 1932 film The Mummy. Saskia and an unexpected ally, The Bride of Frankenstein disrupt their sinister plans. This haunted house will take guests on a harrowing journey between hunter and hunted, culminating in a life-or-death struggle where only one bloodline can emerge victorious.
Adding to the immersive experience, the haunted house at Universal Studios Hollywood will be located in the historic Sound Stage 12, known for filming classic horror movies such as Dracula (1931), Frankenstein (1931), and The Bride of Frankenstein (1935). This setting provides a deeply rooted connection to the genre's origins.
Moreover, the return of the Universal Classic Monsters haunted house will see the return of GRAMMY® Award-winning musician SLASH, who will once again compose an original score for the event. His music will be featured alongside previous compositions on a limited-edition vinyl album available for purchase at Universal Studios Hollywood.
At Universal Orlando Resort, Emmy®-nominated composer Sara Barone will craft a unique score for the haunted house. Barone, known for her work on BBC's Planet Earth III and Amazon's Silver and the Book of Dreams, is part of the Universal Composers Initiative. This two-year program, led by Universal's Film Music team and Universal Talent Development & Inclusion, offers composers unique access and scoring opportunities, including this Halloween Horror Nights project.
