Black Oak Grove feels like a town stuck in Halloween night. Fog covers the streets, trick-or-treaters move with something dark behind their eyes, and the monsters you were scared of as a kid are real again. There’s candy on every doorstep—but something about it isn’t right. That’s where the nightmare begins.

Inside the Black Oak Gear Factory, ShadowTek’s illegal Experiment 1031 turns fear into fuel by plunging victims into living nightmares. As terror mutates their bodies and minds, something inhuman now lurks within the factory walls.

The carnival rolled into Black Oak Grove one Halloween—and never left. Its tents rot. The Stages are cursed. The clowns…laugh louder now. They roam the fog with broken grins, lunging without warning. Chainsaws hum in the distance like lullabies. No one knows how it got here. No one dares tear it down.

At the edge of town lies Rotten Hallows—once the peaceful Black Oak Cemetery. Nearly 20 years ago, lightning struck the black oak tree at its center during a Halloween storm. Witnesses swear they saw Silas, the Hollow Keeper, standing in the storm, laughing as his lantern burned brighter than ever.

This isn’t your escape from the madness—it’s part of it. Axe throwing. Carnival games. Fast-paced escape rooms. Oversized photo ops. It all feels like fun—until it doesn’t. A palm reader waits in silence, offering answers no one wants. Magicians and jugglers distract the crowd while something stalks behind them. The air smells like kettle corn and fog. The lights feel a little too dim. It’s just enough comfort to make you let your guard down.
