Slash has been creating music for Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights “Universal Monsters” haunted house for the past six years, and now the legendary guitarist has released those compositions as an 11-song soundtrack.
The limited edition vinyl, titled Music from Universal Studios Hollywood – Halloween Horror Nightsis on sale at Universal Studios Hollywood from September 5th through November 3rd, with 300 copies hand-signed by Slash. A run of 100 copies was made available through Deko Entertainment Online Storebut it sold out immediately.
“As a long-time fan of horror films and ‘Halloween Horror Nights,’ I jumped at the opportunity to collaborate with Universal Studios Hollywood again to produce a score for the Universal Monsters haunted house,” Slash said. “Similar to how music affects a film, I composed this score for the legions of nefarious characters in these haunted houses to elicit a sense of emotional terror.”
All songs on the soundtrack were written and performed by Slash, with additional instrumentation and vocals by Stacey Quinealty.
This year, Slash's music provides the soundtrack to Universal Studios' new haunted house, “Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines,” featuring an all-female reunion of classic Universal monsters: The Bride of Frankenstein, Dracula's Daughter, The Wolf of London and the undead, mummified Egyptian princess Anck-Su-Namun.
