Universal Orlando’s highly anticipated theme park expansion lets guests step inside a monster movie like never before.
Welcome to Dark Universe
When Universal Orlando Resort’s Epic Universe opens on Thursday, May 22, guests will be transported to a realm where nightmares are real, creatures lurk in the shadows, and classic movie monsters come alive. Among the five immersive worlds at Epic Universe, Dark Universe promises to be a chilling highlight.
According to a recent USA Today report, the park will offer visitors a chance to “channel their inner monster at Dark Universe.” The official address is 4700 E. Sand Lake Road in Orlando, Florida, approximately 15 minutes from Universal’s existing parks.
A Portal into the Shadows
Guests will enter Dark Universe through Celestial Park, passing through a twisted portal formed by a giant dead tree, immediately arriving at Frankenstein Manor. The world is described as a “shadowy realm where the unknown lurks around every corner,” drawing inspiration from Universal’s legendary monster films.
