WATCH: ‘Surround yourself in horror’ as Universal’s Horror Unleashed prepares for 2025 debut

Year-round horror is coming to Las Vegas in 2025 with the debut of Universal Destination and Experiences’ Horror Unleashed






Universal Destinations & Experiences (UDX) has announced that its highly-anticipated year-round horror experience will open to the public next year in Las Vegas.

Taking Universal’s highly-popular Halloween Horror Nights into its own permanent attraction, “a darkened warehouse on the edge of Las Vegas” will play host to Horror Unleashed, which will feature IPs including Universal Monsters, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Scarecrow: The Reaping and Blumhouse’s The Exorcist: Believer.

Revealing new footage and information about the attraction, UDX said the offering will be a “relentless spectacle of horror”, with four horror houses and themed immersive areas with live entertainment. Guests can also enjoy horror-themed food and beverage options, including a bar serving alcohol. In addition, season events and special merchandise offerings mean the attraction will be continuously updated year-round.

“Universal’s rich history in the creation of the horror genre drove our desire to bring a year-round horror experience to the incredible entertainment offerings in Las Vegas,” said Page Thompson, president of New Ventures for UDX.

“We’re thrilled to have our award-winning Creative and Entertainment teams working tirelessly to bring these terrors to life in 2025.”

Horror Unleashed will be the anchor tenant for the 20-acre expansion of Las Vegas’s popular Area 15, an immersive entertainment district offering a selection of the wild and wonderful.
