Panik Room: the terrifying immersive game that will make you poop your pants

Fancy a scare with friends? We've found THE spot to give you the willies! We're off to Panik Room, a"haunted house" in the 1st arrondissement of Paris. A place that offers immersive play and, above all, a new way to scare the crap out of yourself.

How does it work? Bring your team and take turns entering a haunted house, blindfolded and with a camera on your head. While one of you searches for a clue to solve a paranormal investigation among the ghosts, the others are confined to a panic room, under cover, and must guide the unfortunate until he has found what he came for. A good way to test group cohesion and communication.

The pitch for this game, meanwhile, is rather amusing: Dr. Henri Deveaux and his Scottish-born wife Gladys lived in the manor house with their daughters, Sophie and Moïra. Moïra, suffering from glass bone disease, died at the age of 11 following a serious accident in the manor. The Deveaux couple were not heard from again after returning from Moïra's funeral in Scotland. The local police did not investigate their disappearance. 80 years later, the manor house has been abandoned and the Deveaux family forgotten. The few people who have ventured in speak of an occult presence roaming the corridors. But who is it? How and why has it come to haunt the manor? That's the mystery you'll have to solve.

Total immersion, between video games and survival horror, right down to the realistic settings. In short, it's a chance to get scared and have fun at the same time (for the more daring...). Shall we go, friends?
