Universal Studios Hollywood’s latest original maze, Monstruos: The Monsters of Latin America, will tell the terrifying stories of the Tlahuelpuchi, La Lechuza and El Silbón.
As for the characters in the maze, Murdy gives a brief rundown: Tlahuelpuchi comes from Tlaxcala, Mexico, and is a vampire witch, but “unlike other vampires, they don’t bite people, they suck the blood through the skin and leave tell tale bruises behind, so it’s a witch story, but with a vampire twist,” he shared.
La Lechuza, which comes from parts of Mexico and the Southwestern United States, is an owl witch that “can disguise her voice to sound like a baby crying, which is really creepy,” he said. “Late at night if you hear a baby crying outside and you go out to try to help — it’s a trap.” El Silbón, from Colombia and Venezuela, is probably the most gruesome of the three. We’ll spare the too-gory details, but basically a man is forced to carry a bag filled with his father’s bones upon his back and after his death, he returns seeking revenge mostly against womanizers and drunks, adding more bones to his collection.
Since it’s a culture he did not grow up in, Murdy said he does a lot of research and noted he owes a lot to Rose Gonzalez, a senior member of Universal’s marketing team, for helping him truly understand these tales and get them right. “Aside from all the years she’s worked here in Hollywood, she also lived in Mexico City and she’s been my touchstone for these things and gives me great pointers,” he said. “It’s been really fun to dive into that culture and I know it means a lot to our fans, so we’re really excited to bring this new maze to life.”is a rock star. He drew a massive crowd to the Grand Ballroom inside the Long Beach Convention Center and as he appeared on stage, horror fans cheered and began chanting his name.
