Alice Cooper Plots 'Nightmare' Sequel

"We'll be creating this living horror movie within screaming distance of the sound stages where horror movies first began, so there's no place more appropriate to offer a preview of the new "Welcome 2 My Nightmare." This will be a nightmare that will haunt visitors' dreams for a long time to come," said Cooper.

The new attraction will take the guests on a trip through guillotine decapitations, electric chairs, a sadistic insane asylum, predatory snake and of course the giant Black Widow spiders that helped make his imagery timeless and permanent."

There are few people in the entertainment business who can be called a true original. Alice Cooper is in that rare pantheon. As a life-long Alice Cooper fan who's been motivated and inspired by his craft, I am absolutely thrilled by this incredible opportunity to collaborate with him on this new haunted attraction. It's a nightmare come true," said the creative director John Murdy.

The "Halloween Horror Nights 2011" team will also include multihyphenate "Eli Roth, who will present the new maze Eli Roth's Hostel: Hunting Season and The Thing: Assimilation," inspired by Universal Pictures' upcoming thriller.
