Guitarist Slash has released Slash: Music of Universal Studios Hollywood – Halloween Horror Nights just in time for spooky season. It arrives via Snakepit Records LLC/Deko Entertainment. Unfortunately, you have to be on location to purchase them.
This limited edition 11-song vinyl-only album is comprised of Slash’s original compositions over the last six years for the Halloween Horror Nights ‘Universal Monsters’ haunted house, and 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.
Slash says:
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. 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.
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, including 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. “
All this music 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.
