Featured at Universal Studios Hollywood
Earlier this week, Shock Till You Drop was invited to get an early look at Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood. The event’s creative director, John Murdy, guided us through “La Llorona: Villa De Almas Perdidas” (aka “Weeping Woman: Village of Lost Souls”) an attraction upon which actor Diego Luna served as a creative consultant.
Out of the crop of new mazes this year, “La Llorona” stands out as an “original,” not previously based on a film like the others.
The new maze will tell the haunting story of “La Llorona,” doomed to wander the earth forever after drowning her children in a desperate attempt to win a lost love. She then drowns herself when this attempt to win her lost love fails. According to the legend, La Llorona’s dreadful, wailing cries â “My children! Where are my children?” – can be heard eternally piercing the night. La Llorona’s frail, drenched body lurking throughout the dead of night will invariably elicit unwavering dread from the helpless village inhabitants or maze guests as her presence signifies impending death.
