TRAUMA

The Fear Is Real, the Danger Isn’t

This chilling, hospital-themed show unfolds live in the moment and is never quite the same each time. You won’t watch from the safety of an audience seat — you’ll walk the hospital corridors yourself and witness medical procedures and traumas closer than you’d expect. The actors are allowed to touch you, but you are not allowed to touch them. We are professionals of horror, so you are safe with us.

Intensity of the Procedure

If you want to take part in the event but don’t want to be touched, you’ll receive a separate marker when you arrive at reception. You’ll be treated more gently throughout the procedure, but you won’t otherwise miss out on anything in the experience. The choice is yours, and you don’t have to justify it to anyone.

Side Effects of the Procedure

Since unpredictability plays the lead role of the evening, we don’t want to spoil too much about what your visit will involve. However, the show includes flashing and flickering lights, loud noises, darkness, confined spaces, fog, strong smells, and violent scenes. You may be separated from your group, and your clothes may get dirty.

Every participant signs a pre-visit form and is given a safe word. Saying the safe word stops the show immediately, and you never have to explain your reasons for using it to anyone.

This show is not suitable for everyone. If you have epilepsy, a heart condition, severe claustrophobia, or are pregnant, please contact us before purchasing a ticket.

Instructions for Arriving at Reception

Reception is at the old Meilahti hospital, Tukholmankatu 10, 00290 Helsinki. Enter through the front door. A café is open in the lobby.

The ward admits five patients at a time. The treatment session lasts about 45 minutes, and your group may include people outside your own party.

Arrive in the lobby at your chosen reception time, hand in your pre-visit form, and wait until it’s your group’s turn. Our staff decides the order in which patients are admitted, so arriving early will not speed up your access to treatment. Our estimated maximum waiting time is 45 minutes.

This event is 18+ and alcohol/drug-free. Please note that you may be asked to prove your age. If you arrive intoxicated, our staff have the right to deny you your entry, in which case the ticket price will not be refunded.
