About This Game

WELCOME TO THE WORLD'S FAIR HOTEL

Chicago, 1893. The World's Columbian Exposition is in full swing, a dazzling beacon of human progress. Just blocks away stands a magnificent new hotel, promising luxury and convenience to young travelers. You are one of them. Experience the story of Elizabeth, a young secretary hoping to start a new life in the big city. But the man who welcomed you, Dr. H.H. Holmes is not a hotelier, he is a madman. And his building is not a sanctuary, it is a machine designed to kill for profit.

"I was born with the devil in me. I could not help the fact that I was a murderer, no more than the poet can help the inspiration to sing..." — H. H. Holmes

Wake up to your worst nightmare. Behind soundproof walls and doors that lead to nowhere, the dark truth about America’s first serial killer awaits you.
