An evening at Hotel 626
Halloween has gone, the nights are drawing in and Christmas is on the horizon - have a spare couple hours in the evening? If so log onto http://hotel626.com/
The 'hotel' (site) is open from 6pm - 6am and you register in the day to then allow you access in the evening. Hotel 626 features a morgue, a dark room and other claustrophobic confines, giving visitors 3D views in darkness, brooding sound design and mobile phone directions that lets you react in real-time to the action on the screen. A microphone and a webcam are highly recommended to experience the whole site.
Oh and incase you do not realise the point behind the site - its to promote Doritos re-launch of the Taco and Four Cheese flavours - obviously! Not completely sure of the entire relevance other than it was released around Halloween - so I guess there lies the answer!
Nonetheless a great concept - the way you can check-in during the day and then enter at a set time in the evening...just like a holiday inn!
