Pyramid Head Gets Real In Silent Hill Haunted Maze



What could be scarier than being chased by the evil virtual denizens of Konami's Silent Hill games? How about being chased by said denizens in reality?

To that end, Konami has teamed with the ridiculously named Jeff Schleffelbein's Sinister Pointe "haunted attraction venue" in Orange County, California to erect the Silent Hill Haunted Maze just in time for Halloween.

The official press materials describe the Haunted Maze as "a terrifying labyrinth in which attendees will experience their favorite survival horror franchise in an interactive and frightening remake of this decade-old series. The heart-pounding maze is set inside a vacant movie theater that is over 10,000 square feet of space and guarantees to put attendees up against their worst fears."

Of course, that's assuming that your worst fears include being chased by college drop outs wearing papier-mache Pyramid Head costumes while bored glamour models dressed as undead nurses look on with boredom in their glazed over eyes.

If this sort of thing does interest you though, Konami helpfully included details on when and where you can "experience the terror:"


When:
September 25th, 7pm - Special preview open to media and the public
October 2nd - October 31th
Weekdays: 7pm - 10pm
Weekends: 7pm - 12am

Where:
Brea Plaza Center
453 S. Associated Rd.
Brea, CA 92886
Telephone: (714) 404-8729

Dammit, I'm in the UK so I can't go. That's a bit of a piss take. Nothing exciting like that ever gets organised in the UK...

That said, in a couple of weeks I'll be going to Leeds' own culture festival, Light Night, much of which includes things like ghost stories in the university library basement and so on. So plenty of scares there for me...

Woah... That's quite... awesome. Is what I'd say if they pulled if off properly. Too bad it's only in America so I may never know.

You guys got the awesome escapist party over there...

I am all the way out here in the mid-west, so I guess I won't be going. But it sounds like it would be pretty cool.

Damn. I wish I could go in the maze.
But most likely they will release some videos of it so I don't really mind. :)

Here's something to think about... Marijuana is legal for "medicinal purposes" in California, and a few maze-goers are going to uhh, take their meds. How do you think high-as-kite potheads are going to handle Real Life Silent Hill?

It'd make his year :p

"Now where did I leave my Hearts key? Wait, I broke it in two, then dropped one half down the sink in the storehouse and the slipped the other under the rug in the attic..."

(Yah, I know Hearts key is Resident Evil, but SH does pull crap like that as well.)

Dammit, I'd go just to see that. But alas, I live in Saskatoon Canada and I don't have a vehicle nor can I afford a plane ticket so I'm stuck here for Hallowe'en. Oh well, maybe I'll dress up as Pyramid Head and scare the piss out of the trick-or-treating 12 year olds.

UK fails! :( Oh well, pub crawl for Halloween...

It would've been such a good place to take the other half too, he loves the Silent Hill games. God why does England have nothing good going for it :(
