We tried out Dublin's new interactive horror experience - and it's as terrifying as you'd imagine

Unlike your standard, corny amusement-park haunted houses, this one is the real deal. The Nightmare Realm takes you out of your comfort zone, throws you into dark uncertainty, and pits you up against gruesome characters, horrific scenes and blood-curdling experiences.

To get the full Nightmare Realm experience, we sent Hot Press' toughest, least afraid, most stone-faced reporters to check it out.

They left traumatised.

Get a sense of why here:

The Nightmare Realm runs until November 3rd at the RDS in Dublin and is the perfect way to give yourself a genuine fright this Halloween. Consider yourself warned.
