Based on one of the most terrifying installments of the iconic film franchise, “Blumhouse’s The Exorcist: Believer” haunted house will immerse guests in a harrowing retelling of the film’s descent into demonic possession. Everything begins at the market where a violent earthquake takes place. Later, guests will find themselves deep in the shadowy woods where best friends Katherine and Angela mysteriously vanish – only to be discovered days later with no memory of what happened. From there, the terror builds room by room as the girls’ disturbing transformation unfolds, going from the hospital to the girls’ homes to witnessing the actual exorcism as everyone is surrounded by supernatural chaos. The ghostly journey continues as guests explore the abandoned production warehouse throughout Universal Horror Unleashed, where they encounter the Prop Graveyard, one of the four themed immersive areas. Here, the line between inanimate and alive blurs, as guests face a supernatural collection of unsettling dolls, dismembered mannequins and other haunted objects from abandoned film sets that seem to move as guests walk through. Next door, guests can unwind in Premiere House, a tapas bar featuring the horrors of Blumhouse. Premiere House will serve a variety of signature cocktails and a surprising selection of signature shareable bites set amid an eerie atmosphere filled with movie props and twisted décor representing some of Universal’s most recent Blumhouse horror films. Universal Horror Unleashed is Universal Destinations & Experiences’ first-ever, year-round horror experience, set to open in Las Vegas at the AREA15 District on August 14. As guests enter the abandoned production warehouse, they’ll encounter unimaginable monstrous creatures lurking around every corner as they brave their way through four themed immersive areas. The terrifying journey continues in four haunted houses that will bring to life their worst nightmares: Universal Monsters, Blumhouse’s The Exorcist: Believer; Texas Chainsaw Massacre; and Scarecrow: The Reaping. The horror extends to the food and beverage offerings, with themed bars and food locations serving craft cocktails and themed bites in select areas, and a retail location with unique collectible merchandise and more.
