From Simreal
Trophy Room
Bordello Location: Big Room (X2)
Purpose
Introduce the guests to the true horror that they face. Mood goes from eerie to horrible.
Description
The walk to this station is through a hallway defined by scary white plastic. This is a hall of shadows and light, where we project effects lights and alien shadows to intimidate the guests. Hang body bags along the walk. With bodies.
The station itself is a plush, soft, inviting room.
Required Faces pinned to the walls (examples of past work, failures, samples). Some light blood and gore splashed in the corners, hastily cleaned up if at all. A bloody alien footprint.
Desired Jars or boxes or tubs with parts in jars (esp. fingers)
This room used to be the western Bordello. The risque paintings on the walls and plush furniture should contrast nicely with the alien decor.
There is still one traumatized western actor, curled up and whimpering in the corner. Or maybe in a cage? A big bird cage, hanging if we could manage it :) The group gets nothing coherent from her.
Flushed by alien sound, strong presence. Possible actress outburst?
Guide Notes
We need a reason why we can't take the victim with us. Legs broken, perhaps, in addition to being totally withdrawn?
Hang around for a bit trying to interact with the broken actress, but be ready to bolt with your group when the alien sound happens. The other actress, who is okay, protects the traumatized one from trouble.

Special Timing
This is a "fast" station. It either splits time with DissectedActor, or it could share time with ParanoiaStage. Either one or one and a half minutes.
Effects
- Faces. Keith, we want your face!
- Lighting and Shadows along hallway
- Strong alien presence on cue
- Alien, threatening sound
- Sound overlay: the usual, plus a steady, alien heartbeat in the background, nearly subliminal
Inspired
- Body of a young woman, with one of those masks like the dolls last year instead of a face, give the suggestion that she contributed one of the trophies
