Dracula's Library
HardNew Orleans 1862…. You and your team of investigative journalists have been following the trail of the world’s oldest vampire for quite some time. Your interest, however, has not gone unnoticed. You have been lured to a mansion on the banks of this mystical city by a promising lead in your quest to expose Dracula to the world. Once inside you and your team realize that the tables have been turned and, you now find yourselves unwitting participants in a most deadly game. Racing not just against time, but against the darkness itself.

The Farm
HardThe Idea of spending a week on a real working farm seemed like a dream come true. Life in the big city can be so stressful and demanding, it’s going to be good to get away and get back to nature. The first few days were great, the work was hard and we loved it, but something about this place is a little off. Some of the people that we arrived with appear to have left the property, but we didn’t see any vehicles pick them up. There is also a strange, weirdly modern building at the edge of the cornfields that we are not allowed to visit. I know that my mind must be playing tricks on me, but I could swear that one of the ranch hands had large drops of blood on his boots? Enough! I must just be fatigued from the heat and the work. This is just a normal farm in a beautiful country. Right? RIGHT????

Charlotte's Attic
HardThe bizarre murders of Charlotte and her little sister at the hands of their seemingly deranged father shocked this close-knit community and still resonates to this day. Now, 20 years later you and your team have returned to the scene of the grisly crime. There has always been something about this crime that just didn’t add up. Why did Gerald Grundy murder his daughters and then kill himself ? What did he do with the bodies? So many questions. Will you find out what really happened in this sinister old house or will you possibly share the Grundy’s fate?

13 Doors
HardAs you pull up to the deserted old mansion a feeling of dread begins to overtake you, something isn't right. You should tell the driver to turn around and head back to the airport and never think about this place again but you can't, a part of you has to know why. Why did she choose you? You take a deep breath and get out of the car, as you head toward the massive oak front door it slowly begins to open as though the door itself is inviting you inside. There is no turning back now...
