“After putting on their VR headset and backpack, players will be transported to the Hospital of Horror, where they will be able to explore the abandoned rooms,” reads a release.
“But they will quickly find that they’re not alone…”
Organizers say the Hospital of Horror isn’t an escape room, but a completely immersive experience, similar to a haunted house – but more convincing.
The virtual reality Hospital of Horror is designed for two players at a time, and lasts 10 minutes, if you can survive that long…
The new dates won’t last long, so be sure to make a reservation sooner rather than later.
