No. Victoria should absolutely be a meet-n-greet/photo-op character... especially since Ygor is one (AND HE DIES!)

Also they stated that all the monsters would be photo-op characters... including Phantom. I suspect the rest of the line-up won't be "out" in the land until the park opens

They never said all the monsters would be greeting. And all the ones they announced, already are out.

 

[Wesker69]

Well they should increase the selection then..

Having just watched the movie for the very first time, you can tell how much the designers of Darkmoor and Unchained are fans of Van Helsing 2004, and I mean that positively. As much as I do wish Unchained was a bit scarier, I can love and appreciate its campy aspects a lot more now.

That isn't to say the land and ride isn't horror at all and campy-action like the movie. I'd say a good way to describe it as a whole is Van Helsing 2004 if it was a bit less campy and took itself about 75% more seriously.

Came out the year I was born and wasn't even aware of its existence until recently!

I saw VAN HELSING on opening night back in high school. What a crushing disappointment that evening was!

(I've since come to appreciate it as goofy fun.)

 

[Wesker69]

My best friend & I were obsessed with it (and Underworld). We saw Van Helsing in theatres at least 5 times (back when "cheap" theatres existed). Loved the soundtrack too.

He'd definitely love Dark Universe. Wish Hollywood would get a wave of updated merch lol

I might watch Van Helsing later today now lol. I've been meaning to watch it since last year after Eternal Bloodlines (Saskia... my shayla) but haven't yet. Also to comment on some of the stuff needed in this land, I absolutely agree with @Wesker69 that we NEED a Victoria Frankenstein M&G. It's absolutely criminal we haven't gotten one already. Also need more VF merch please!
