Check out the video after the jump for a glimpse at what you can expect.
“Raccoon City is overrun with Umbrella Corporation’s most terrifying experiments, and the only option is complete destruction. You’ll need to duck and dodge Lickers, Hunters, and Nemesis himself if you want any chance of escaping Capcom’s video game terrors before missiles send everything back to hell.”
The Immersive Experience
The Resident Evil 2 haunted house at Universal Orlando is designed to be an incredibly immersive experience. As you walk through the haunted house, you will encounter various iconic locations from the game, such as the Raccoon City Police Department and the dark, eerie streets of the city. The attention to detail is meticulous, ensuring that fans of the game will feel as though they have stepped directly into the world of Resident Evil 2.
Visitors will face off against some of the most terrifying creatures from the game, including the grotesque Lickers, the relentless Hunters, and the formidable Nemesis. Each encounter is designed to be as realistic and frightening as possible, with state-of-the-art animatronics and special effects bringing these monsters to life. The haunted house also features a variety of interactive elements, allowing visitors to engage with their surroundings in ways that heighten the sense of danger and urgency.
Behind the Scenes
Creating such an immersive and detailed experience requires a tremendous amount of effort and collaboration. The team at Universal Orlando worked closely with Capcom, the developers of Resident Evil 2, to ensure that every aspect of the haunted house was true to the source material. This collaboration included consulting on the design of the sets, the creation of the creatures, and the development of the storyline that visitors will experience as they navigate the haunted house.
The haunted house also incorporates advanced technology to enhance the experience. For example, sound design plays a crucial role in creating an atmosphere of tension and fear. Visitors will hear the distant growls of monsters, the creaking of floorboards, and the ominous sound of footsteps approaching, all of which contribute to the overall sense of dread. Lighting is also used strategically to create shadows and highlight key areas, adding to the suspense and making it difficult to predict what might be lurking around the next corner.
