Event short description

A century after the last party at Hollowmere House, the mansion opens for one night only. Your team arrives as the Lantern Society, in your own company's logo and colours, to hold the séance that frees six trapped guests: the Pilot, the Singer, the Doctor, the Heiress, the Magician and the Child.

Explore a candlelit Victorian mansion on a stormy night, together, in the browser:
- The talking board: every player puts a hand on the planchette, and it only moves where the whole team pulls.
- The figures in the gallery move whenever nobody is watching. Herd the guests home while teammates keep watch on the ones coming for you.
- The ballroom finale: a frozen party where every player has a job. Watchers must keep changing corners, while others set the table, play the music box and wind back the clock.
- Plus: portraits whose eyes follow just one player, a music-box tune to punch out, the Doctor's balance scale, and the Child's toy theatre.

A few well-timed jump scares keep the night lively, and Gentle mode turns them all off with the same puzzles, so it works for any team.
