Library Of Secrets

The Library of Secrets is a new location-based entertainment concept — an immersive literary experience where patrons don’t just read books and stories, but get to step inside of them to meet the characters and help make sure each narrative reaches its own happy ending.

A bird’s-eye view conceptualization of the first floor of the Library of Secrets

Using their RFID-enabled library cards, guests to the Library of Secrets will be given quests by the living, animatronic books called Tomes. These quests ask guests to maintain the magic of the library by stepping inside the story worlds of multiple genres (mystery, science fiction, fantasy, romance, and children's books) and helping the characters therein to find a happy ending. To do so, guests will need to solve mysteries, play games, and interact with various media in a fun, fast-paced, family-friendly immersive experience.
