Pin  House of Horrors
"House of Horrors" is an extraordinary space for curious travelers who are not afraid to venture into the wilds of the capital. The place provides an opportunity to explore the underground world of tunnels and catacombs of Sofia, gives access to a laboratory for biological experiments with humans and animals from the dawn of socialism, presents the option to adjust the difficulty of the experience, trains reactions in stressful situations and the instinct for self-preservation, based on the idea that fear in a controlled environment strengthens immunity.

Beneath the capital's streets stretch 240 kilometers of dark dungeons. Bomb shelters, bunkers, tunnels used for logistics, warehouses and secret laboratories hide the mysteries of Sofia. Now the municipality maintains only a few, while many others are abandoned or buried.

Legend has it that under an old military block in the center of Sofia hides a cluttered laboratory for biological experiments on humans since the dawn of socialism. Not long ago, a group of adventurers disappeared, leaving no trace except for an open old ventilation shaft. Rumors speak of mutated creatures - the result of experiments carried out in the laboratory and later released into the wild.
