Prepare for spine-tingling terror like never before! Universal Orlando Resort has unveiled a first, electrifying look at the creatures stalking the shadows of its newest attraction, Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment, and let me tell you I’m BEYOND excited. Set to open May 22, 2025 this groundbreaking horror adventure will unleash a horde of legendary monsters, including Frankenstein’s Monster, Dracula, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, and The Wolf Man – each brought to life with mind-blowing, life-like robotic technology that will blur the line between the real and the imagined.
Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment plunges guests into the depths of Frankenstein Manor, where the brilliant and unhinged Dr. Victoria Frankenstein – the great-great-granddaughter of Dr. Henry Frankenstein – is running her shocking, perilous experiments. With a twisted desire to showcase her genius, she invites guests into the heart of her laboratory, where control over her monstrous creations rapidly spirals into chaos. Enraged monsters break free, and guests are swept into a dark, relentless escape as they attempt to evade Dracula, The Wolf Man, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, and more.
MONSTERS ON THE LOOSE
This hair-raising attraction boasts 14 of the most realistic, powerful, and fastest-moving animatronic figures Universal Orlando has ever developed. Here’s a closer look at a few of the fiends lurking in the shadows, waiting to strike:
Frankenstein’s Monster
Standing nine feet tall and weighing over 800 pounds, Frankenstein’s Monster is a towering menace that guests will encounter up close in Dr. Victoria Frankenstein’s lab, where he lumbers around during the attraction’s eerie pre-show.
Dracula
The ultimate creature of the night, Dracula is as cunning as he is deadly. Dr. Victoria Frankenstein’s most fearsome subject has a deadly edge over his fellow monsters, terrifying guests as he leads the nightmarish onslaught in his quest for revenge.
The Wolf Man
Claws bared and teeth gleaming, The Wolf Man will hunt guests through the claustrophobic catacombs of Frankenstein Manor. His razor-sharp ferocity brings guests within heart-pounding inches of a real encounter with this infamous lycanthrope.
The Creature From the Black Lagoon
Emerging from the eerie depths, the amphibious Gill-man rises from the Black Lagoon, ready to terrify anyone who dares enter his lair. His presence, as haunting as the mist surrounding him, will leave guests breathless.
For those not quite ready to brave the horrors within Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment, there’s still plenty of eerie magic to experience in Dark Universe. Guests can snap photos with the legendary monsters and encounter strange residents, including Dr. Victoria Frankenstein herself, The Invisible Man, an eccentric monster hunter, and even a talented musician serenading the village with dark melodies.
