Slash the iconic, Grammy Award-winning guitarist and songwriter has released Slash Music Of Universal Studios Hollywood – Halloween Horror Nights today, via Snakepit Records LLC/Deko Entertainment, just in time for Halloween.
This limited edition 11-song vinyl-only album comprised of Slash’s original compositions over the last six years for the Halloween Horror Nights ‘Universal Monsters’ haunted house, is sold exclusively onsite at Universal Studios Hollywood from September 5 through November 3. 300 alternate color vinyl that are hand signed by Slash will be placed in stores at Universal Studios Hollywood until they are sold out, and only 100 are available online via Deko Entertainment here.
“As a longtime fan of horror movies and of ‘Halloween Horror Nights,’ I jumped at the chance to once again collaborate with Universal Studios Hollywood to produce a soundtrack for the Universal Monsters haunted house,” says Slash. “Similar to the way music affects a film, I composed this score for the legions of infamous characters in these haunted houses to elicit a sense of emotional terror.”
For the past six years, Slash has composed the original music for Halloween Horror Nights ‘Universal Monsters’ haunted house which fans experience live at Universal Studios Hollywood every Halloween season. This year, Slash’s original score for the all-new haunted house “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines,” is headlined by an all-female gathering of classic Universal Monsters – The Bride of Frankenstein, Dracula’s Daughter, She-Wolf of London and the undead, mummified Egyptian princess Anck-Su-Namun. The “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines” haunted houses will introduce guests to an all-new terrifying storyline, as they find themselves in the center of the ultimate battle between two unexpected alliances of classic female Universal Monsters. The terrifying adventure will take guests on a journey between the hunted and the hunters in a life and death battle with only one bloodline left to survive.
As the movie studio that invented the horror film genre, “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines,” haunted house at Universal Studios Hollywood will have even more relevance as it will reside within legendary Sound Stage 12 on the studio back lot, the original filming location for such Universal horror movies as Dracula (1931), Frankenstein (1931), and The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), among others revered classic and contemporary films.
Fans can now enjoy the scary soundtrack as the ultimate background music to usher in Halloween night. All music and guitar for Slash Music Of Universal Studios Hollywood – Halloween Horror Nights was written by Slash and produced and co-written with other instruments and vocals by Stacey Quinealty. The score was recorded at 741 Studios in Burbank CA and Snakepit Studios, CA.
