Visitors navigate an outdoor scare trail through the estate grounds either in general admission groups or private party passes. The experience revolves around an ancient relic unearthed during routine construction that emits a strange energy and sparks a dark clash of power and control. As guests journey through the forest, a dark history unfolds and a mysterious hidden order awakens.
