Universal Orlando Resort hotel bars are getting Halloween makeovers this fall, with themed décor, photo opportunities and limited-time cocktails and food across several properties.
At Loews Royal Pacific Resort, Jake’s American Bar has become the Universal Monsters Laguna Lounge. The space includes life-size Universal Monsters figures, with the Creature from the Black Lagoon at the entrance and the Bride of Frankenstein, Frankenstein’s Monster and the Wolf Man onstage. The menu includes the Black Sand Margarita, Spiced Island Spirit Mule and Blood Moon Spritzer, plus snacks and entrées such as Devil’s Volcano Eggs, Haunted Hideaway Buffalo Dip and the Cursed Luau Burger.
Universal Stella Nova Resort’s Nova Bar has a hazmat-cleanup theme, while Luna Bar at Universal Terra Luna Resort depicts rival alien factions. Both have exclusive seasonal drinks, including Nova Bar’s nonalcoholic Bio-Core Transmissions and Luna Bar’s color-changing Nightshade Elixir.
At Hard Rock Hotel, Velvet Bar’s Night of the Living Shred returns with zombie roadies and photo ops, and the event now extends to the outdoor Veranda Bar. Universal Aventura Hotel’s barVentura has also been taken over by aliens, with themed drinks additionally available at Bar 17 Bistro.
