Grave of Flesh (HHN 34)

[Kichkinet85]

Sorry for the double post, but here is my review.

The facade was beautiful.

Spoiler: Facade

The cemetery gates with the caretaker SA who comes out

However, the story was confusing to me and my group, and the SA need to be more intense.

Sort of sad at the reception for this one. I think it creates a great sense of dread and has potential to be one of the most intense houses this year, but I admit the muddled story hurts this one a bit.

Would love a synopsis if someone figures it out:

Spoiler: House Narrative

Have we fallen into the grave like the main character in the podcast, we are consumed, and then our soul travels through levels of purgatory/the underworld?

Wasn’t the biggest fan of this house the first 3 nights but I ran it 2 times last night and those scareactors were on another level! They added a bunch of scares and new scare tactics. Hope they continue on this path because this could be a riser although the story is a bit rugged

WTF was this house lol lol. It's just. . . well, WTF lol.

This is one of those houses where I can see the scares improving and this'll be a good rush of a house to go through, since while the sets are neat and all, like others have mentioned the story just gets lost in translation. The one scene which sticks out to me is...

Spoiler

The room with all the white sheets and the monster up on a platform in a white robe/apron who's literally having a Marilyn Monroe moment with the wind. Don't get me wrong, the scene is pretty neat, but it feels like a non-sequitur compared to the caverns and MC Esher staircases.
