DON’t Be afraid of the dark -
The Dark is Afraid of us…
Something is going bump in the night - but this time it could be us?!
Step inside the Scaredy House and bring your shadows with you. Together, we’ll illuminate our worries in this game of slight frights and night lights.
From the award-winning artists behind immersive experiences like Escape from Monotony, Avoidable Perils, and Adrift. This winter, Counterpilot invites families to take part in an interactive theatrical haunting. Think Goosebumps meets Minecraft with an existential twist. You’ve never heard a ghost story like this one…
SCAREDY HOUSE is recommended for families with young people aged 8-12.
