About two miles from the glittery main drag in Las Vegas, a new kind of entertainment destination – one without casinos – is expanding.
Area15, a mall of sorts for all kinds of unusual attractions, kicks off a second phase this month with the Aug. 14 opening of Universal Horror Unleashed, the first year-round haunted house from Comcast Corp.’s theme-park division.
Horror Unleashed includes a walk through of a windblown cornfield littered with decomposing bodies, a full-scale replica of the house from The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and an opportunity to sit and share a cocktail with an actor portraying a vampire queen. Tickets start at $59.
