Did you never want the apocalyptic party from 2013's This Is the End to stop? If so, then you might want to aim your car hood towards the West Coast this fall, because Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights Hollywood has announced an upcoming This Is the End 3D horror comedy maze.
Kicking off September 18th, the This Is the End maze is a collaboration between Universal Studios Hollywood and James Franco, Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill, who starred as themselves in the film about a party at Franco's house that turns deadly when the biblical apocalypse begins.
The maze will feature a replica of Franco's Hollywood home and it sounds as though decisions participants make could determine whether they end up damned and left for dead or saved and sent to heaven (as seen in the film), offering a bit of a Choose Your Own Adventure flavor to the proceedings.
