Play Resident Evil IRL In New Stuit Hall Exhibit
“Leon! There’s a Resident here! I think maybe he’s evil!” says evil doctor Whisker.
“The only Evil Resident here is you, Whisker! You’re Resident Evil!” replies Leon.
-Excerpt from the Resident Evil movie.
Stuit Hall has really been through the wringer this week, and the new exhibit open only from 12 am October 31st to 12:46 am October 31st really puts the nail in the coffin. Well, it is only Thursday, maybe there’ll be a couple more.
If you are unfamiliar with Resident Evil, you should really go outside less. Resident Evil is a video game franchise based around survival-horror action, with a healthy dose of puzzles. In the original game, released in 1996, you play as either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine, two special agents searching for their missing squadmates in a spooky mansion in the hills. When they arrive, they find many a zombie and other body horror beasties, as well as a big snake. Later in the series they would expand to other eccentric locations and characters, with Leon Kennedy being voted #1 sexy video game man every year since the hornball debuted in Resident Evil 2 in 1998.
The entity known presently as Stuit Hall (though it has many, many, many, names) attempts to replicate the terror of these games by pulling the beasts from the alternate timeline that Resident Evil takes place in. Fan favorites like eyeball-goo-monster, zombie, big zombie, little zombie, and gross dragon will all return. When you enter the exhibit, located on the second floor of Stuit Hall (as the first does not exist), a handgun will appear on the ground in front of you, and no matter what time of day it was when you entered, it will be night. If you are able to survive through the end of the storyline (generally 30-40 hours) you will be able to exit the exhibit. There is no reward besides being able to exit.
Free entry will be awarded to handsome men, and they will spawn in with a cool knife if they have a woman they are duty-bound to protect with them. While some concerns were raised about how one would be able to be in an exhibit for 30-40 hours when the exhibit is only open for 46 minutes, Stuit Hall responded to these claims by consuming those who raised them.
