This section has two distinct themes: one a mature coastal city and that of a seasonal tourist town in New England. Within the San Francisco portion of this area lie one show and one attraction. Beetlejuice's Rock and Roll Graveyard Revue is a live show featuring some of Universal's classic monsters, including Frankenstein, Dracula, the Bride of Frankenstein, and Wolfman.
The most recent addition was that of Disaster!: A Major Motion Picture Ride...Starring You!. This attraction puts guests in the middle of a new Disaster movie made by fictional company Disaster Studios. Opened in January 2008 it features a merchandise store, named Disaster! Studios Gifts. In homage to the previous Earthquake: The Big One attraction (which Disaster! replaced), the Richter's Burger Company dining outlet has remained open.
The Amity section of this area is home to Jaws where guests are put aboard Captain Jake's Amity Boat Tours. The ride takes guests on a journey around the island of Amity, hoping to avoid the menace known as JAWS. Due to popularity, the ride opened in 1990 as an extended version of the original staged event on the Studio Tour at Universal Studios Hollywood. A gift shop entitled Quint's Surf Shack is located nearby the ride. Fear Factor Live is a live stunt show that puts real park guests into the action of the former NBC series, Fear Factor.
