Haunted Houses (Mazes)
EGO:MORPH (New 2025)
“You dare to enter a labyrinth of mind rooms and consciousness disturbances. Will you find your way out? And will you be the same afterwards?
The S.O.M.N. sleep lab has been abandoned since Dr. Radcliffe disappeared – it was too deeply entwined with the secret society’s dark goals. New alliances between S.O.M.N. and the nightmare creatures have erased the boundaries between dream and reality. This has opened up entirely new possibilities for experiments on dreaming… or awake humans? Who can really tell which state they are in?
You make your way through a foggy maze of rooms created by your subconscious mind. Who’s in control – you, or a darker force? Will you ever wake up again? And how do you even know if you’re awake… or still dreaming?”

Physia
“According to researcher Anna ‘Epiales’ Ascher and her team, intoxication, dreams, the subconscious, and the superego can all be triggered simultaneously. In their experimental therapy facility, they use dubious chemical substances to explore whether and how nightmares can be influenced by medication.
Take part in the experiment and let yourself be ‘treated’ beyond the lab’s boundaries, where reality, trance, and dreams merge into an abstract horror trip.”

Hollow Oaks Clinic

See for yourself and follow the screams and eerie music deep into the forest.”

NOX
“More and more mysterious nightmare fog rises from the depths of the mine, filling the S.O.M.N. research campus. Scientists and technicians nervously try to find the source of the problem, but the nightmare essence spares no one. Horrifying figures emerge from the mine while people vanish in the dark tunnels…”

Live-Entertainment
DARK DREAMS – Badtime Stories
“Are you really awake, or is this just a dark dream? What happens when your nightmarish visions escape your head and take shape in the real world?
In the sleep lab, eccentric experts experiment with manipulating dreams and provoking nightmares. In a half-sleep state, a young subject seems trapped between the dream world and reality… bizarre creatures, nasty jump scares, and supernatural horrors make this a deeply unsettling experience.”

“Since the fall of S.O.M.N., not only buildings and facilities have decayed, but patients and staff have also transformed into living embodiments of their worst nightmares and fantasies.
Within the dense fog lurk the Dreamons: deranged doctors, disfigured patients, and sinister dream creatures waiting to pull more souls into their mist.”
