History
From 1970 to 1995, the site of today's belonged to Cape Fear Safari Park, at one point owned by.

In 1993, Universal Pictures began research for the development of a third U.S. Universal Studios park after Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Studios Florida, with over 2,000 sites considered. In 1994, Cape Fear Safari Park went into receivership and it's site was chosen. From 1995-1998, the park was built and new homes were secured for all the safari animals. The park opened on May 15, 1999 and saw 5 million visitors in it's first year alone.

Halloween Horror Nights Unionization Attempt
In 2008, the scare actors & performers for Halloween Horror Nights (along with many other live show performers at the park) attempted to unionize through an affiliation with the Actors' Equity Association, who represents the haunted house performers at Carwardine Parks' Brilliance Port. The effort did not amount to unionization.
