This attraction featured real-live performers dressed up as characters from Universal's horror films including The Mummy, The Wolfman, Norma Bates from Psycho, Frankenstein, Nosferatu, and other characters. The performers inside the maze jumped out and scared guests as they walked through the various "sets" from the films. The performers did not touch the guests, and the guests did not touch the performers.
The attraction took about 8 minutes to walk through. It was not recommended for children under the age of thirteen due to violent and scary situations. It was also not advised for those who suffer from heart, back or neck problems, claustrophobia, fear of heights, fear of the dark or those sensitive to sudden and loud noises.
On July 26, 2014, Universal Studios Hollywood announced the last chance to experience Universal's House of Horrors before it closed permanently on September 1, 2014 to become an entertainment, retail shopping and dining experience.
On November 25, 2014, Universal Studios Hollywood demolished the Universal's House of Horrors maze along with Hollywood Photoland and The Blues Brothers R&B Venue to make way for the Universal Studios Store expansion.
