Universal Previews Terrifying New Haunted Houses for Horror Unleashed

Universal Studios is ramping up excitement for their upcoming attraction, Universal Horror Unleashed, by dropping not one, but two brand-new sneak peek videos. These clips give fans an exclusive look at two of the most anticipated haunted houses: The Exorcist: Believer and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. If you weren’t already hyped, these teasers are sure to do the trick.

A Glimpse Into The Exorcist: Believer

The first video dives into the terrifying world of The Exorcist: Believer. Inspired by the 2023 film, the house plunges visitors into a chilling narrative of demonic possession. The sneak peek reveals eerie set designs, spine-chilling soundscapes, and glimpses of the horrifying encounters awaiting inside. It’s an experience guaranteed to test your bravery.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre Brings the Classic Horror to Life

The second video focuses on The Texas Chainsaw Massacre house, a tribute to the 1974 horror classic. The teaser showcases the grisly, immersive details—from the eerie rural setting to the deafening roar of Leatherface’s chainsaw. It’s a faithful recreation of the nightmare-inducing world that horror fans know and love.

More Haunted Attractions Await

But the excitement doesn’t stop with these two houses. Universal has also revealed details about the other haunted attractions coming to the massive 110,000-square-foot venue in Las Vegas’s AREA15 entertainment district. Here’s a quick rundown:

  • Universal Monsters: This house reimagines legendary figures like Frankenstein, Dracula, and The Wolf Man in a modern horror setting. It’s a tribute to the iconic creatures that started it all.
  • Scarecrow: The Reaping: An original story set on a cursed farm where vengeful scarecrows come to life. Expect an atmosphere of dread and some serious jump scares.

More Than Just Haunted Houses

Beyond the haunted houses, Universal Horror Unleashed brings even more thrills. One standout is “Jack’s Alley,” a themed zone featuring live entertainment and a bar inspired by Jack the Clown, a fan-favorite character from Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights. The venue also includes horror-themed eateries, bars, and a retail space packed with exclusive merchandise.

Building on Universal’s Horror Legacy

This isn’t Universal’s first rodeo with horror. Their Monsters IP has been wildly successful in projects like the new Epic Universe park in Orlando and the “Monsters Unleashed” attraction. With this Las Vegas expansion, they’re solidifying their reputation as the ultimate destination for horror fans.

A Dream for Halloween Horror Nights Fans

For fans of Halloween Horror Nights, this new attraction is sure to feel like a dream (or nightmare) come true.

Tickets are on sale now, starting at $69 for single-entry access or $99 for unlimited entry on the same day. Both options include entry to all four haunted houses and the themed zones, so you’re getting a lot of scares for your buck.

If the sneak peeks are anything to go by, Universal Horror Unleashed is set to be the ultimate horror experience. Get ready to face your fears, Las Vegas — the screams are just getting started. The attraction is set to open on August 14, 2025.
