Check In If You Dare: Peacock and Blumhouse Take Over the Stanley Hotel This October

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 24, 2024 /JamNewsWire/ — Horror fans will have a new place to rest their head this October – the Peacock “OVERNIGHTMARE” at The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colo., the famously eerie landmark. In partnership with Blumhouse, Peacock will take over The Lodge at The Stanley Hotel, from Fri., Oct. 18 – Sun., Oct. 20, where rooms will be themed to one of four Blumhouse films – InsidiousThe PurgeHappy Death Day and Freaky.

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, including 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 exclusively on Peacock, 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.

Come sundown, things will quite literally go bump in the night. Each evening will feature an after-dark experience as guests are pulled from their rooms for one of four personalized, fully immersive activations, inspired by each of the Blumhouse films and featuring interactive characters, narratives, and scares. Experiences will be geared toward different horror levels to allow guests to face their fears no matter their terror threshold – from Freaky and Happy Death Day for those who want just a taste of the terrifying, to Insidious and The Purge for a full nightmare experience.

Peacock and Blumhouse are transforming the Stanley Hotel this October for a thrilling, immersive horror experience, featuring themed rooms and personalized scares from iconic films.
