Halloween 2025: V/H/S/Halloween, Dracula Musical/Ballet, Muppet-Like Monster Cereals & Universal Horror Unleashed in Las Vegas

V/H/S/Halloween the next film in the horror anthology series has a date and has announced the directors. Coming to Shudder Oct 2nd, a new bag of messed-up directors is inside. We've got Bryan M. Ferguson (Pumpkin Guts), Casper Kelly (Too Many Cooks), Micheline Pitt-Norman & R.H. Norman (Grummy), Alex Ross Perry (Her Smell), Paco Plaza (REC), and Anna Zlokovic (Appendage). As reported by BD.

Hoo boy, who know how weird Caper Kelly's segment is gonna be. 


Did I forget we have Dracula Ballet? In any case, it's back in the LA area Oct 24th and does look bloody good. Only two nights!

But wait, there's even more Dracula with Dracula The Musial starting this August. And, it is a rock-opera version!!!
 
"Director Justin Meyer has this to say about the upcoming production: “Dracula: The Musical will enthrall audiences with its powerful score played LIVE by our house rock-band, its soaring operatic vocals, its high-flying aerial acrobatics,  its richly ornate costuming and its blood-splattering special FX, Themed Cocktails and Mocktails! This show is rarely done in the United States, so this will be a very special opportunity for Wildhorn and Dracula fans to come out and see it done in the round a truly unique and epic way that only The Nocturne Theatre can do!”"
 

 

 
August 8th-August 31st, 2025 The Nocturne Theatre, 324 North Orange Street, Glendale, CA 91203
Price: $44.50-$73.50, with booking fee

General Mills’ Monster Cereals had a collab with the Jim Henson Company for some fun looking boxes this year. Count Chocula, Boo Berry, and Franken Berry all have Muppet makeovers. Just to remind you, Disney owns the Muppets, but the style and just making fun looking puppets separately still exist in the Jim Henson Company. So no Kermit the Frog on the box. 


 Finally, Vegas wants some of that haunt money and has a new year round horror attraction. Universal Horror Unleashed in Las Vegas.
