What I love most about this idea of Epic Universe is the contrast! Like, you can go to this dark and scary realm and then go straight to Super Nintendo World right after, where everything is happy and colorful. This is going to be the best experience in any theme park yet!
I’m actually a lot more excited for that Wolf Man spinning coaster than I was before. It’s got a coherent story (probably with a pre show), and I really like the way the coaster & queue go through a forest area behind the village. As for Monsters Unchained, it sounds like it will really use every tool in the box to take the scare level up to 11!
I thought it was a waste of space when I saw the testing, but I didn't realize that the spinning in the testing was random because it hadn't been programmed yet, and not because it was going to be like that on the final ride
BRO, exactly 😂 @jonathanest90s exactly because Universal is BLOWING them out of the water, i’d bet on everything Universal has Disney’s imagineers now.
Finally! Universal is honoring the past, by bringing the monsters into today. I forsee them doing something with jaws and other classics too. There's a big demand for that from fans
@@CobbleBompster that's fair. I just really dag the wolfman and Dracula looks. Especially the wolfman. I liked how he actually looked like a werewolf and not a guy with a fro and a beard.
I’m really happy that they didn’t go to creepy with the land, don’t get me wrong it definitely is but it’s not so crazy where kids won’t wanna step into the land
This could honestly be the best theme park land ever created. It has an overarching story that tastefully combines ip and is actually really good and makes sense (unlike Fantasy Springs with the Duchess and weird water spirit) and lots of characters that will really bring life to the area (also lacking in Fantasy Springs). There's really cool and interesting techniques to create kinetics like the fiery windmill, werewolf coaster, and the electrical volts. The monsters ride also looks like it will be the best ride ever created. Seems Tokyo Disney's Fantasy Springs was a preview for what Universal is doing in Florida.
@@CobbleBompster that kind of concept was a sort of dream theme park land for me. I always imagined a sort of villains land with a sort of small league of heroes, and attractions where you join said league to face off villains. I'm glad it's become a reality in Epic Universe.
Hopefully it isn’t all flash and no quality. The Tiana ride is a good example of flash without quality. I hope they can maintain this ride and keep delivering what they promise.
@@CobbleBompster they have a steampunk space themed land with many Jules Verne and Melies references (something Disney removed from their parks...) and an in-park hotel DisneySea style; a video game land (also the superior version of said video game land); a stylized vintage Paris reminiscent of DisneySea with a magical twist; a more kid-oriented land with vikings and dragons that also appeals to adults; and now this. Universal really does know theme park fans
@@syxpaths5809 looking at the concept art and seeing how the story in the ride connects with the rest of the land, I think we can safely say this will be very quality
@@idk-zt8rx oh I love the concept and feel like it will be great if all falls into place. I’m worried the rides will open like hagrids did, they will stop having live actors in the land because of costs, and I hope they can maintain the impressive tech which will also be costly. Concept is epic(see what I did there) I just hope they can deliver practically and enduringly
@@Jonathanest90s - Why? Disney is the one who passed on the book, movie, and them park rights to Harry Potter. Those dollars are what paid for all of this. They have the closed Galactic Starcruiser, and Galay's Edge with one great ride and a bunch of shops / merchandise. This is a whole different level. Disney messed up big time and went with a streaming service that is losing billions.
If beyond big thunder ever actually happens... I'm sure it will still be great, but this monsters land looks incredible in terms of attractions and theming
This looks amazing, I just need to know, every member of “the big nine” them being Frankenstein, Dracula, The Mummy, The Wolf Man, Creature From The Black Lagoon, The Phantom Of The Opera, The Invincible Man, The Bride Of Frankenstein and Quasimodo all will get PLENTY of representation and merch! I also need museum areas where we can see screen-used artifacts. I would cry if I saw some of the things I’ve dreamed of seeing for years now. But other than that, it looks AMAZING!!!
I do know every monster listed will appear throughout the land with the exception of Quasimodo details are scarce about him but Phantom will appear in the main attraction playing the organ with flames shooting out of the pipes.
This is insanely beautiful. Looks straight out of something like Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 with the classic spooky scenery, which I believe has never been done before in any major theme park. It’s also not in-your-face scary like Halloween Horror Nights. It’s perfection ❤
I am looking forward to this park. Universal theme parks are so fun. I am so happy they are adding this park to the Orlando parks. 2025 is going to be EPIC for sure.
*Praying* we get an expansion plot for a black lagoon water ride in the vein of Jaws but with modern tech. The potential for this land is seriously endless
Looks great, but my only fear is that this land will pretty much be only THIS cool at night. And everyone will know that, so walking around at night in Darkmoor will be a pain lol.
This whole thing reminds me of Alton Towers in my home country of the UK. It takes several contrasting themes and connects them all together in a way that doesn’t feel slapped together or tacky. It’s a beautiful patchwork quilt of fun.
As a Horror guy myself this is easily the most anticipated land for me. Super excited to see how this goes. Dude, Imagine this land Light up at night👀 *Definitely gonna go crazy bruh* Also who’s going to hop on Monsters unleashed first thing in that area? Cuz I am🙋♂️
I was not that excited for this land but aftear the 2 videos you guys released im most exited for this land if the monsters unleashed ride is like you said I can’t wait now im inpatient
@@brandonhinete6508 It ruins the narrative the imagineers had intended. Obviously it doesn't completely ruin a great ride, but they hurt the artistry put into the attraction.
@@brandonhinete6508 It for sure can. "Butchers" is a strong word, but with high-quality themed entertainment, one slip-up can change an entire attraction for the worse. The hatbox ghost replaces the ominous candelabra, distracts from the eerie banging on doors, and ruins the very intentional buildup of the ride. You are not supposed to see any of the ghosts until the ballroom
This is exactly how a theme park land should look. Seeing this won’t even do it justice compared to physically being there. I am beyond excited for dark universe and the rest of epic universe
No, no, please stop. I already told you I gave up my AP to Disney and am now a Universal customer from here on out. You just can't dial it up to 11 then 30 minutes later, dial it right up to 12. Please. Have mercy.
They can, they have, and all signs point to them continuing to do so. Heck, I have a relative who works for Disney so I could bring my family there for much cheaper than the general public. Despite that, we are UOAP holders.
You know what would be cool? if they use some empty spaces for a train to bring you to worlds, like this they can bring back Back to the future but this time they use the back to the future train to travel through worlds and can put like an effect that makes you feel you are "travelling through time" but instead you are travelling through worlds, this would be EPIC and would make use of Back To the Future again
I have one question, so through the preview video i know that the monsters unchained ride is a dark ride, but does it have any drops? Like free falls- I so want to take on the challenge but i struggle with internal challenges, Drops a big no for me ;w;
What I love most about this idea of Epic Universe is the contrast! Like, you can go to this dark and scary realm and then go straight to Super Nintendo World right after, where everything is happy and colorful. This is going to be the best experience in any theme park yet!
The atmosphere in the land is going to be crazy during thunderstorms! 🌩
Especially an evening or night thunderstorm
Crazy because it rains very often in Orlando
Or during October/halloween time
Yeah man, it will be sick if they can keep the fires in the buildings going.
@@matthewclokus7311Seeing as how often it rains at HHN, I assure you, they did.
I can only imagine how busy this place would be on Hallowe’en.
Ay bro what if Universal brings Halloween Horror Nights... to Universal's Epic Universe.. 👀🤯😮💨 Dark Universe will be lit 🔥

1:13 Imagine day 1, someone doesn't know this is how the windmill is supposed to be: *"FIRE! CALL 911! CALL 911!"*
“It’s supposed to be on fire”.
“On fire? That’s highly irregular”!
“Eh, normal’s overrated. Just ask the monsters”.
@@garrettviewegh9028
Monsters: “It’s true!”
Werewolf: “TruuuuuuuuuUUUUUUEEEEEEE!!!!!! What? I’m a werewolf. I have to howl!”
@@multiverse_media2023 Someone make a video of this. I just laughed like crazy just now.
Though I’m not a huge horror fan, this land looks like it will be amazing at night
It low key would be so fun to dress up as an Auror and pretend to investigate Darkmoor. Man I’m so excited for this park!!!
Better call Professor Van Helsing then.
Disney: A ride with a 50 foot drop can't be scary!
Universal: Here's an entire land devoted to fear
BRO, exactly 😂
@jonathanest90s exactly because Universal is BLOWING them out of the water, i’d bet on everything Universal has Disney’s imagineers now.
@@Jonathanest90swhy shouldn’t we? Both occupy the Florida landscape with their 2 biggest theme parks in that area.
They literally have tower of terror tf you on about?
@@jurassicraptor9779 It opened in 1994 💀 that’s 29 years ago tf are you on about. It’s not even meant to be scary due to theming but to thrill
this man not seriously bringing up tower of terror to the chat, it was cool when it came out 69 years ago. abandoned theme abandoned ride 😂
So far I am not sure which land is more immersive based on the reveals. They are so so incredible. But this one looks the most interesting.
Out of all the lands in epic universe, THIS is the land I'm looking forward to the most.
Finally! Universal is honoring the past, by bringing the monsters into today. I forsee them doing something with jaws and other classics too. There's a big demand for that from fans
Can't wait to go there and see my favorite universal monster, The Wolfman
@@CobbleBompstertheir designs are fine I guess. My favorite designs are the ones they've use for Halloween horror nights.
@@CobbleBompster that's fair. I just really dag the wolfman and Dracula looks. Especially the wolfman. I liked how he actually looked like a werewolf and not a guy with a fro and a beard.

Creature from the black lagoon for me!
@@Remysnum1fan too
Dracula: “Good evening my appetiz-. I mean, guests”.
Wolfman: AROOOOOOOOOOOO... Have a nice time!
I so wish this was coming to Hollywood but I am just so glad it’s happening at all! I cannot wait to visit!

ITS ALIVE! ITS ALIVE!
Come on Disney, build that Villains Kingdom at the back of Big Thunder to take on those Universal monsters!
This is why competion is GOOOOOD! Compete you cowards!

Nah - they're going to add another large, unthemed hallway.
@@Jonathanest90sstop spamming each comment.
Love how they even themed the sky for this land!
Maintaining the horror vibe at 11AM when it's a cloudless 93 degrees out? We'll see
@@haileyk4383maybe they'll just use fog?
@@graffiti.777 There's apparently supposed to be a lot of fog.

Omg. This with the new Wizarding Paris area will be so worth another visit. I CANNOT wait!
This is insanely beautiful. Looks straight out of something like Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 with the classic spooky scenery, which I believe has never been done before in any major theme park. It’s also not in-your-face scary like Halloween Horror Nights. It’s perfection ❤
This really looks next level. As someone who loves classic monsters, this is what I’m looking forward to most
I am looking forward to this park. Universal theme parks are so fun. I am so happy they are adding this park to the Orlando parks. 2025 is going to be EPIC for sure.
A park that is bold enough to embrace the dark is my kind of place!
*Praying* we get an expansion plot for a black lagoon water ride in the vein of Jaws but with modern tech. The potential for this land is seriously endless
I can't wait for the creature from the black lagoon ride
Imagine going to this park for Halloween. That’d be awesome!
Looks great, but my only fear is that this land will pretty much be only THIS cool at night. And everyone will know that, so walking around at night in Darkmoor will be a pain lol.
I know I almost wish they built it fully inside like knockturn alley
Can’t wait for the Monsters Unchained ride! It uses the same robotic arm as the Hogwarts ride, but will be almost all physical sets!!
We are so excited for Epic and Dark Universe. This has us hyped for this new land.
I was not expecting so much with this land. This monster kid is beyond excited!
My friends and I are visiting when the land opens for the universal monsters. All the way from Australia! Cannot wait!!
Danny Elfman just announced he’s doing the score for the entire land!! If you know his scores, this video is a sneaky leak listen!!!
I'm dying. So epic, so amazing. Can't wait
Looks spectacular. A lot bigger than I thought. Love how the areas are divided to each monster.
Absolutely immaculate vibes and atmosphere I can only hope that it gets further expanded with time!
This will be epic for sure ..Just think about going after dark, on a fog drizzle night and full moon. This is a must!!
I can't wait to go! Most anticipated in all of Epic Universe! 🖤
This whole thing reminds me of Alton Towers in my home country of the UK. It takes several contrasting themes and connects them all together in a way that doesn’t feel slapped together or tacky. It’s a beautiful patchwork quilt of fun.
No way Disney is ever going to beat this... and there is expansion for this park planned for the next 20 years.
As a Horror guy myself this is easily the most anticipated land for me. Super excited to see how this goes.
Dude, Imagine this land Light up at night👀
*Definitely gonna go crazy bruh*
Also who’s going to hop on Monsters unleashed first thing in that area? Cuz I am🙋♂️
This place will be amazing, I can't wait to see the finished product
I would love to see a House at Halloween Horror Nights Orlando this year based on Dark Universe 🙏
Wouldn't that just be a Monster's house?
Trying to convince a friend to travel from Australia to Orlando when it opens! One way or another I will be there!
Dark Universe looks like it’s going to be a great themed area at Epic Universe
EPIC! Can't wait a year or two once the initial mad rush dies down!
I was not that excited for this land but aftear the 2 videos you guys released im most exited for this land if the monsters unleashed ride is like you said I can’t wait now im inpatient
Disney (in the voice of Loki): I have a Haunted Mansion
Universal (in the voice of Iron Man): We have a haunted land!
@@CobbleBompster I dont really see a the addition of a single animatronic butchers a whole ride.
I still love haunted mansion tho
well said!
@@brandonhinete6508 It ruins the narrative the imagineers had intended. Obviously it doesn't completely ruin a great ride, but they hurt the artistry put into the attraction.

Anyone else is REALLY excited about this?!
Definitely my most anticipated land in Epic Universe
I bet this is the song that DANNY ELFMAN was working on
God bless them for keeping the Dark Universe alive no matter what, the Monsters deserve to be remembered 🙏
This is exactly how a theme park land should look. Seeing this won’t even do it justice compared to physically being there. I am beyond excited for dark universe and the rest of epic universe
If the werewolf ride is anything similar to cosmic rewind but outside, oh boy that’s gonna be my favourite ride of all time.
Quality and quantity and fan favorites?! Take my money.
I bet Disney doesn’t have horror movies, but dark universe has many things
Dark Universe is going to be one epic land when Halloween comes!
Ooh. Spooky. Now all that's missing are the Monsters.
this is insane! can’t wait is an understatement 🤯🤩
I bet this land will look amazing at sunset and night!!!!
Even though nothing is being said in this video, it still speaks volumes.
No, no, please stop. I already told you I gave up my AP to Disney and am now a Universal customer from here on out. You just can't dial it up to 11 then 30 minutes later, dial it right up to 12. Please. Have mercy.

I don’t know if the music used is an original composition or if it’s from something, but if it’s used in the land I will be so stoked
I would love a Creature from the black lagoon log plume ride!
Supposedly a ride for that character will be added if Dark Universe gets an expansion
IT'S GONNA BE EPIC!
You know what would be cool? if they use some empty spaces for a train to bring you to worlds, like this they can bring back Back to the future but this time they use the back to the future train to travel through worlds and can put like an effect that makes you feel you are "travelling through time" but instead you are travelling through worlds, this would be EPIC and would make use of Back To the Future again
I’ve been waiting for something like this for years!!..Im so excited & scared at the same time!!.. its going to be amazing ❤
Im getting HorrorLand from Goosebumps vibes and I'm all for it! I love this!!!
Universal brings Halloween Horror Nights to Epic Universe.. Dark Universe land.. would look so Crazy 😱🔥👀🤯..
THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My uncle and his boyfriend will never want to leave this land once we get here. And frankly (no pun intended), I don’t think I will either.
I wonder if there'll be a theater that shows all the classic monster movies.
Is this the lands theme song made by Danny Elfman?👀
DARK UNIVERSE looks amazing great job UNIVERSAL.Since this an UNIVERSAL original IP,UNIVERSAL
should consider build this theme land in UH
Who eles loves that this opens the year lon chaneys phantom is 100 years old??
What's the zip code for the village of Darkmoor so I can update my personal mailing address? This is where I'll be living starting next year.
This is my favorite area in the park hands down!!! ⚡️🐺
So immersive it’s not bad having 2 rides I think, although a river coffin boat ride would be nice too if they added that in dark tunnels
the most beautiful thing about this flythtough is the lack of excessive people
Cannot wait, this looks absolutely gorgeous
This place definitely reminds me of Bog Easy from Epic Mickey! The atmosphere is incredible and just as I hoped it would be!
This park is perfect for Halloween herorr nights
HOLY MOSE THIS LOOKS COOL!!!!!!!
I feel like I’ll have to come to this part of the epic universe either super early or after sunset in order to get the best experience
Definitely trying to go next year
My whole family hates horror and scary creepy monsters, so it looks like I'll have some solo time exploring this land all on my own😂
The HHN icons are perfect for this place caretaker and the story teller specifically
Soundtrack by Danny Elfman?
Love the music very Tim and Danny this needs to be stop motion movie.
Halloween night it’s gonna be lit 🔥
The best area in the park already 😌
Hopefully they'll have something for The Creature from the Black Lagoon in this land & not just a little one off appearance
A boat ride is rumored for the eventual expansion.
Love times a million. I can't wait!!
Seems to be one of the smallest lands but that's OK. That castle is Dope!
Prolly keeping wizarding world to show last … after all. The OG wizarding world pretty much paid for all this being how successful it was and still is
I have one question, so through the preview video i know that the monsters unchained ride is a dark ride, but does it have any drops? Like free falls- I so want to take on the challenge but i struggle with internal challenges, Drops a big no for me ;w;
Será que o Halloween Horror Nights vai acontecer lá também?
❤❤❤❤I’m so excited. It looks amazing!
Love the background music
That is insane, I can't waittt
Truly epic!
