Halloween Horror Nights featuring the Universal Monsters

[Remco Wolfman]

Universal Studios is featuring (an updated version of) Dracula, Frankenstein & the Wolfman in one of its mazes for Halloween Horror Nights this year. I actually like the take on Frankenstein in the video:

This is cool.  I would love a movie that followed this same plot.  I'd also be okay with these designs.

A few walk through videos are on youtube of the maze. It looks kinda neat, though shorter than I would like. This video is the best one I've seen on youtube, in terms of getting a look at the maze:

That is actually really cool.  The best "haunted house" I've seen.  So much slasher and clown stuff in haunts nowadays.  This is really what a haunt should be... good old fashioned monster movie scenes.

The hung up some classic Universal movie posters, but painted over the actor's faces with generic (and "scarier") monsters.

It irked me a bit, but it tied together the theme.  Still could have left them be.  After all, the "real" monsters must surely be more frightening than the movie versions...

Other than the poster paint overs this looks petty fun. Did I miss the mummy? I saw the sarcophagus but no mummy? I would have liked to see the Creature too.

The Mummy is in the sarcophagus. I've watched a few of the youtube videos, and in some of them he jumps out at people. The Wolfman is also in the crypt at the very beginning right after Frankenstein is holding the dead girl. Seems odd that they don't have the Creature in it at all...they easy could have added some sort of lagoon or water set between the crypt and the main Frankenstein's Castle set.

This one has a bit more of the Wolfman and Mummy:

Costs too much to make the costume.

Thanks.  You could clearly see Fritz, Renfield, and Henry in this one.  Too cool!

From the press release I saw, they were only featuring monsters from the 1930's and '40's. The "Golden Era." "Creature" is 1950's.

I'm actually going to be in LA for work next week. I'm spending a few days extra there and plan on visiting Universal Studios and seeing this attraction. Do you recommend buying tickets in advance? Or buy at the door? Also, how should I budget time? I'm also interested in the Halloween 4 and Stranger Things attractions too. Is it realistic to see all this stuff in one day?

Thanks!!!

I hope they do something like this next year,when I hope to finally get back to LA for a visit after several years.
