About The Haunting of Olivia:
An otherworldly immersive mixed reality experience.
You are cordially invited to experience a most chilling open house! Armed with Steamroller Technologies’ newest tech, the Specter Detector TM, you’ll come face to face with Olivia, the ghost of Bordeaux Estates. Once a beautiful magician’s assistant who tragically fell in love with her employer, Olivia haunts his former residence, tormenting visitors.
This remarkable immersive mixed reality experience utilizing lighting, sound, and motion platform technology will awaken your senses as you encounter a soul who’s not yet quite ready to leave this world for the next.
The Haunting of Olivia debuted at IAAPA, in Orlando, November 15-19, 2021.
