If you’re heading to Universal Orlando’s newest park, Epic Universe, you probably want to experience all it has to offer, right? You want every ride, every restaurant, and every experience from this brand-new third gate, especially since tickets aren’t cheap.

We track all closures at Epic Universe so you know when to plan your trip and what to expect when you get there. A very popular ride has been added to the refurbishment list, and this is one you don’t want to miss.

Monsters Unchained will be closed from December 11th to December 15th. Now that’s scary!

Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment

This ride takes you through Dr. Frankenstein’s manor, and you get to be up close and personal with some of the most iconic Universal Monsters. From the Creature From the Black Lagoon, Wolf Man, the Phantom of the Opera, the Invisible Man, and The Mummy, there are plenty of monsters in stunning animatronics that you’ll want to spot while being whipped around, so hold on tight!

Looking for more monsters while the ride is closed? You can catch quite a few while walking around Dark Universe, but the other attraction is Curse of the Werewolf, a spinning roller coaster.

Universal recently announced that a new indoor roller coaster would be coming to Dark Universe. The coaster will immerse guests in “an all-new story inspired by the Universal Monsters franchise.” Construction is already underway, and while Universal hasn’t announced a timeline, they say it is coming in years.

Another Epic Universe attraction has two planned closures. Fyre Drill will be closed from November 9th to 10th, and again from January 25th to February 4th. We often see water rides close in winter because of the weather, and Fyre Drill closes pretty often on the Isle of Berk. Don’t worry: there is plenty of other dragon fun to enjoy, and plenty where you don’t get wet too.

We highly recommend catching The Untrainable Dragon, where Toothless and Hiccup fly over the audience. Many of our team members cried while seeing it for the first time because it’s truly so magical.
