Universal Studios Hollywood
At Universal Studios Hollywood, the world famous Studio Tour becomes the Terror Tram. The “Terror Tram: Survive the Purge” experience at Universal Studios Hollywood will pit guests against ultra-violent citizens who take to the streets, given permission to cleanse the country of those deemed as less desirable. Recognizing that not all citizens choose to hunt during The Purge, a newly endorsed “Purge Party” will welcome guests to honor this proud national tradition by watching the night’s dramatic events unfold on large video screens set up around the famed Universal backlot — until the experience quickly turns into an unforgettable living nightmare.
Once aboard the “Terror Tram,” guests will find themselves at the mercy of affected vigilantes looking to annihilate people by the thousands. Strolling about the famed studio backlot — the very place where the horror film genre first took root — guests will need to rely on cunning wit, luck and speed to outsmart and outlive the anarchy unleashed by once average citizens now transformed into sadistic felons.
“This year’s ‘Terror Tram’ preys upon the vulnerability of our guests as they wander the darkness of our world-famous backlot surrounded by iconic horror sets and consider the theoretic possibility of a real Purge experience,’” said John Murdy, Creative Director at Universal Studios Hollywood and Executive Producer of “Halloween Horror Nights.” “We consistently strive to raise the bar in delivering ideal scares, and the backlot at night infested with reprehensible characters is one way of truly scaring the living daylights out of our guests.” Does this mean there will be a new route in addition to the Whoville to War of the Worlds path that guests normally walk? Our fingers are crossed.
Universal Orlando Resort
Universal Orlando’s horrifying “Purge” maze will expand upon the incredibly popular and terrifying films and place guests in the midst of a chaotic Purge night where the tradition has commenced. As they navigate the maze, they will quickly realize that they are the targets for this year’s Purge. Guests will be hunted by dozens of masked vigilantes who will stop at nothing to purge as they are entitled.
“Building on the success of last year’s scare zone, this time our guests will live their very own ‘Purge Night’ within the confines of an all-new house experience,” said Michael Aiello, Director of Entertainment Creative Development. “Just like in the film, guests will find themselves within arm’s reach of the most sadistic collection of killers imaginable. Their only want and need is to express their right to purge and purge they will.”
The Terror Tram at Universal Studios Hollywood will ask us to Survive the Purge while Universal Orlando will deliver an entirely new house based on the ultra-violent film series. This evergreen IP continues to deliver a very flexible premise that can work in nearly any situation on any coast. Let’s hope that they deliver some fun once again.
