The Curse of the Werewolf is one of two flagship attractions that are part of Universal Studios Epic Universe – Dark Universe. This high-energy, family-friendly spinning coaster is themed after the iconic 1941 film The Wolf Man. The Wolfman was introduced in Universal's 1941 film and became the definitive idea of what a cinematic werewolf was. Played by Lon Chaney Jr., Larry Talbot is a man cursed to transform under the full moon, with the fear of losing control and his primal instincts lurking underneath. Unlike vampires or zombies, the Wolfman's horror is internal as he is both victim and monster, similar to Frankenstein's Monster. Both of which are highlighted characters for the Dark Universe which NECA is giving an exclusive repainted figure too.
