Revenge of the Mummy, officially named Revenge of the Mummy: The Ride, is an enclosed roller coaster based on the Mummy film franchise, located at Universal Studios Florida, Universal Studios Hollywood, and Universal Studios Singapore, using linear induction motors (LIMs) to launch riders from a complete standstill to a top speed of between 40 and 45 mph (64 and 72 km/h) in a matter of seconds. All Revenge of the Mummy roller coasters have a minimum passenger height requirement of 48 inches (120 cm). Two versions of the attraction have the same track layout but different storylines, however the attraction at Universal Studios Hollywood has an original layout and storyline. All three attractions are manufactured by Premier Rides, feature track switches by Dynamic Structures, and are themed by Universal Creative and ITEC Entertainment Corporation. Some of the alternate features of the Singapore version were designed by Adirondack Studios.

In 2002, Universal Parks & Resorts set about designing a dark ride based on the popular Mummy movie franchise. As part of this process, Universal Studios Florida closed Kongfrontation on September 8, 2002, and Universal Studios Hollywood closed E.T. Adventure on March 14, 2003. On May 21, 2004, Revenge of the Mummy opened at Universal Studios Florida. This was followed by the opening of the ride at Universal Studios Hollywood on June 25, 2004.

In December 2008, Resorts World Sentosa, which now encompasses Universal Studios Singapore, announced a Revenge of the Mummy ride would be built at the park, due to open in 2010. Unlike the previous two installations, the one at Universal Studios Singapore was reported to cost only US$20 million instead of US$40 million. On March 18, 2010, the ride officially opened to the public.
