Description
Unlock a new season of dark secrets at a sinister open-world cocktail party inside the mysterious Volkov Manor. In 1950, Doctors Grigor and Natalia Volkov ran Volkov Manor, a psychiatric facility where patients lived and received treatment. After Natalia's tragic death during childbirth, a series of hauntings led to the mysterious deaths of everyone in the manor, including Grigor. You will have 2 hours to savor a miniature flight of craft cocktails and get immersed in the chilling lore. Loosely based on spooky real-life inspirations—including the final days of Grigori Rasputin, the ancient god Veles, and other Slavic folktales—the eerie affairs waiting inside Volkov Manor are sure to thrill and terrify.
