‘Son of Sam’ Immersive Haunted Escape Game Released

July 16, 2020

For those of you who are stuck at home and missing the thrill of horror events, haunts, and escape rooms, this online project, born in response to closures and quarantines, offers computer gameplay in the comfort of your own home. Terror DTLA: Son of Sam is an online Immersive Haunted Escape (IHE) game that features physical immersive challenges and exciting character-videos performed by film and TV actors.

Synopsis: You are trapped inside your home during a summer heatwave. A power blackout has blanketed your neighborhood in fear as a serial killer moves quietly through the darkness. You must work together to solve the mystery and survive the night. Could this terrifying copycat killer of the infamous 1977 Son of Sam murders be lurking now outside your own front door? Solve puzzles, search rooms, complete challenges, battle evil forces, live the story, and survive the fear!

Terror DTLA’s Immersive Haunted Escapes are a combination of escape room elements, immersive experiences, and haunted house events, collaboratively rolled into an action-packed 60-minute horror experience. The Immersive Challenges get you up out of your seat, as physical dares entice you to do something out of the ordinary for an online game- to interact with your own environment as part of the immersive game-play experience. In-game videos feature actors from film and TV, as characters in the story who speak directly to you, provide you with important information, and challenge you to complete tasks. Play alone or share your screen to play with a group of friends.

Terror DTLA: Son of Sam stars Aaron Groben (Art of the Dead, VHYes), Abigail Hunt (Charlie Says), Charlotte Bjornbak (Weeds), and Sean Alexander James from Apple TV’s The Morning Show. This online Immersive Haunted Escape game is produced and directed by Robert Glen Decker, M.F.A., written by Collin Blair, with escape room puzzles by Felix Sicard, and is a product of Dionysus Productions of Los Angeles.
