Fright Elevator: 360

A Fully Immersive Elevator Simulation with 360-Degree Motion Illusion—No Mechanics Required

Fright Elevator: 360 – HD is the most ambitious and immersive elevator illusion Hi Rez Designs has created to date. This deluxe edition gives haunt and attraction creators a 360-degree simulation, letting you project synchronized upward, downward, left, and right visuals inside a room designed to look like a working elevator. With zero moving parts or motion platforms, the effect still fools the brain—visitors instinctively hold onto walls or rails, convinced they’re descending deep below ground.

This experience is available in both 1-minute and 30-second versions, giving haunters flexibility for pacing and crowd control. Each angle—up, down, left, and right—is a separate HD video, designed for perfect multi-screen synchronization. Whether you use all four views or just a couple, the sensation of motion is powerful and realistic. Add in subtle sound design, and you’ve got a “ride” that feels physical, but is actually digital magic.

What We Love:

🔄 Fully Surrounding Visuals Without the Cost of Motion
By adding synchronized views on every wall, ceiling, and even the floor (using a grated platform or faux glass), this elevator effect becomes incredibly convincing. You don’t need pneumatics, platforms, or lifts—just screens and good timing.

🖥️ Scalable to Any Budget or Setup
Use all four angles for the full 360 experience, or scale down to just left/right for a simpler setup. Each version is optimized for LCD or LED displays, with crisp HD visuals and easy trigger playback.

🧠 Psychological Impact Is Real
In tests, even with no moving platform, participants felt the motion and instinctively grabbed support bars. That’s how powerful the illusion is—making it ideal for queue line experiences or pre-shows that build tension before guests even enter your haunt.

Use Case Ideas:

• Full Immersion Elevator Room: Use four screens (left, right, ceiling, and under a grated floor) to simulate a high-tech or industrial elevator descending into the unknown.
• Queue Line Entertainment: Keep guests entertained and disoriented before entering the main attraction with a “ride” that feels real but cycles quickly.
• Escape Room Intro: Kick off an underground or containment-themed escape room with a realistic descent to “set the stage.”
• Budget Setup: Use just left/right or ceiling/downward angles to still simulate movement in tight spaces or limited-tech builds.

Final Verdict:

Fright Elevator: 360 – HD is the most immersive “motion illusion” Hi Rez Designs has released, and it delivers a theme park-quality experience without the liability or cost of mechanical rigs. With its scalable setup, impeccable visual design, and real psychological impact, this is a must-have for any haunt or escape room looking to push immersion to the next level.

• High-throughput haunts needing a memorable entry experience
