As a massive fan of HHN in Hollywood, I was excited to experience Horror Unleashed. I was not disappointed, the immersion was great, set designs were impeccable, scare actors were amazing and fun. Though there may only be 4 houses/mazes, they spared no expense - they felt longer than the ones in Hollywood, and the jump scares were second to none. But what stood out above all, they split the groups up, allowing each group to experience the house more intimately. Since I went alone, it was terrifyingly cool! The Blumhouse restaurant was awesome, seeing the Grabber an M3GAN walking around was a cool touch! Overall, awesome job Universal! You definitely fed my need for scares, and I’ll be back as soon as I can.

This is a must for horror aficionados, but needs some refinement for the average Halloween Horror Nights attendee. There are traditional haunted house mazes, a few “scare zone” shows (which seemed like after thoughts), and then large featured bar or dining areas. They did a decent job of creating an overall spooky atmosphere; some additional decor and detail in these common areas could go a long way to improve the attraction. I liked all the mazes, except for Scarecrow The Reaping - a repetitive experience with little set design. The queue line was more interesting - with fog and wind effects - than the maze itself. The builds of the other mazes were on point and beautifully rendered. Each had an immersive “scene” based on theme. This was a great idea! This worked well when the guests were well modulated, but created problems when not. They may want to considere a second modulation point right before the scene to make this smoother. My favorite was the Exorcist maze. Those “possessed” scare actors were on point and the overall experience was well designed. I recommend going at times with fewer attendees, as the scare actors can be more engaging without inadvertently being interrupted. As a horror fan, I had a really good time. With some improvements, I think this could be a GREAT time.

As someone who gets freaked out by horror (even a tv an ad for horror) I was pretty anxious about entering this attraction (but was gifting this one for my husband). BTW - He loved it! Thought it was awesome. Me? I survived! I found it rather intense at times (the Scrawcrow installment!!) and the crowds a bit much (eg the first attraction to open was very busy despite the timed entry, it felt rushed. This was one time when being first/early backfired). The bar staff and area was when ridiculously busy and trust me I needed a drink. Alas… no wine!!! The best thing for me was hanging out at Area 15 in general and all the fun the art installations surrounding the attraction and exploring these. But like I said I’m not a horror fan. My husband loved it and that was the point!
