Overview

• Recent coverage reports that Universal’s Classic Monsters are now concentrated in Epic Universe’s Dark Universe land rather than appearing across Universal Orlando Resortis year’s HallowHalloween Horror Nights lineup does not include a Classic Monsters haunted house, breaking with a frequent tradition noted by fans.
• Dark Universe is described as an immersive area with two headline attractions, including a family dark ride and a more intense coaster themed to the monsters.
• Experiencing the monsters now requires a separate Epic Universe ticket, which fan outlets interpret as a revenue-driven consolidation strategy.
• The characters still feature on merchandise and receive nods in the Horror Make-Up Show, but their overall visibility across the resort is reduced.
