Epic Universe is set to open at Universal Orlando on May 22. Also opening on that day is the Darkmoor Monster Make-Up Experience.
If you remember back in 2024, Universal offered a Monster Makeover experience for a limited time. There you could get either a full makeover for $125 + tax, or a mid-monster makeover for $64 + tax.
Now you don’t have to miss out on the limited-time offering. Darkmoor Monster Makeup will be available for a while.
What is it?
“At Darkmoor Monster Makeup Experience, Dr. Pretorius’ old lab has been converted into a parlor to continue the spirit of his demented experiments. Here, skilled artisans use their talents to experiment on customers and release their inner love of Universal Monsters – be they werewolves, vampires, or something even more fashionably monstrous.”
Guests can choose to just have their full faces painted with a Darkmoor Monster Makeup Experience: Experiment Ticket. Or, guests can go all in with full face makeup and accessories with the Darkmoor Monster Makeup Experience: Transformation Ticket.
How Much is the Darkmoor Makeup Experience?

The Darkmoor Monster Makeup Experience: Experiment Ticket is $45 per person.
The Darkmoor Monster Makeup Experience: Transformation Ticket is $169 per person.
