Four new haunted houses are coming to Las Vegas in 2025 as a part of Universal Horror Unleashed. The experience will mirror the haunted houses at Halloween Horror Nights, but it will be year-round, Universal Destinations & Experiences announced.

The immersive horror experiences will involve popular horror-based intellectual property. The four haunted houses will be Universal Monsters, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Scarecrow: The Reaping, and Blumhouse’s The Exorcist: Believer.

Three of the four haunted houses are based on specific film franchises. The odd one out, Universal Monsters, encompasses many different horror films that Universal Pictures produced in the first half of the 1900s. Films under this umbrella include Dracula, Frankenstein, Werewolf of London, and The Mummy. There is a plethora of characters to pull from in this era.

The haunted houses won’t be in isolation. The surrounding area of each haunted house will also offer an immersive experience with themed sections. Within the areas, live entertainment experiences are expected.

“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. We’re thrilled to have our award winning Creative and Entertainment teams working tirelessly to bring these terrors to life in 2025,” said Page Thompson, President of New Ventures for Universal Destinations & Experiences.

Of course, if you’re spending so much energy screaming and your heart is racing, you probably want to recharge with some food. Guests of Universal Horror Unleashed can enjoy “eerie eateries and bars featuring horror-centric food and drink offerings,” according to a Universal Destinations & Experiences press release. The merchandise sold at the year-round horror experience will be one-of-a-kind, with seasonal events throughout the year.

Universal Horror Unleashed was first announced in 2023 as a part of Universal’s goal to introduce new ventures to reach new audiences in new markets. The experience will be one of the main focal points of the 20-acre expansion of AREA15, an immersive entertainment and events district in Las Vegas.

Universal Destinations & Experiences will release more information on the upcoming project through their website and their social media.
