Just in time for Halloween, Estes Park’s Stanley Hotel will host a horror-themed weekend that includes interactive events and screenings of a new series from Peacock and Blumhouse Productions.
Blumhouse, the company behind frightening films such as “Get Out,” “Sinister” and “M3GAN,” is turning the historic hotel into an immersive experience, according to a statement. The “Overnightmare,” as it’s called, runs Oct. 18-20.
Tickets are $1,031 each at stanleylive.com/peacock-blumhouse-overnightmare and include a two-night stay in a double-occupancy room in The Lodge, the themed experience of your choice, one dinner, $100 breakfast/lunch credit, two drinks, two nights of screenings, and “interactive moments and photo ops.”
The screenings promote Peacock’s upcoming original thriller series, “Teacup,” from James Wan’s Atomic Monster. The show premieres a week before the Stanley event (Oct. 10).
“The thrilling experience starts immediately at check-in, where guests will be greeted by a conci-scare-ge and will continue throughout the weekend with encounters of various characters and frights throughout the space,” Blumhouse officials wrote.
That includes the Teacup Room, “a spooky salon that will take guests inside the world of the new thriller series produced by James Wan’s Atomic Monster … and the Blumhouse Bar, a haven for horror fans to have a sip and a scare, and play the company’s upcoming video game, Fear the Spotlight.”
The Stanley has long been a popular destination for ghost hunters and horror aficionados, given its role as the inspiration for the Stephen King novel “The Shining” — and the site of a TV mini-series adaptation in 1997 (Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 horror-classic starring Jack Nicholson was filmed mostly in England).
After sundown each evening of the event, guests can take part in one of four “personal, fully immersive activations” that are themed after Blumhouse movies and feature interactive narratives. They’ll be offered at different levels of fright, producers said, from Freaky and Happy Death Day to Insidious and The Purge (all named after Blumhouse hits).
Blumhouse warned that the experience includes “strobe effects, loud noises during the experience and throughout the duration of your stay, inappropriate language, prop weaponry including chain saws, knives etc., taunting, creature effects, gore, creepy imagery, high altitude and proximity/general wildlife warning (elk, bears, etc.).”
Sounds like Colorado alright.
