We are wishing all of you a happy new year and are excited to announce that we will open the sign-ups for our re-run of The Trip on January 18th. So keep your eyes open and face the horror of Mapleview Forest with us.

“The year is 1982. Summer break is coming to an end, camps are closing their lodges, and football season is about to begin. Homecoming dates need to be secured, while summer flings are still going strong. Those who spent their freedom at school have submitted their projects and finished their exams. But before the break is over, there is one more chance to make this year unforgettable or get some extra credit; a class trip into the remote depths of the American woods.

Some are forced to join if they want to graduate, others are hoping for endless nights with their friends or are planning the prank of the century to end this break with a big bang.

All have their own reasons for signing up. What they do not yet know is that this might be the worst... or last decision of their lives.”

The Trip is a horror larp set in the 1980s where a cast of pre-written characters encounters supernatural beings and has to fight for their survival on a class trip gone wrong.
This game will include adult and mature themes and requires all participants to be at least 18 years old.

Dates: August 28th to 31th 2025
Location: Haidburg, Süderlügum, Northern Germany (Ochsenweg 27 25923 Süderlügum Germany)

To celebrate the announcement of a rerun, we want to share some impressions from last year's game. We picked a few of our favourite photos while trying to keep it (mostly) spoiler free! Heads up, though, it gets a little graphic.

Enjoy and get ready for some more news and info soon!

The year is 1982 and once again the annual school trip to Mapleview Forest is just around the corner! These woods have seen a lot: Countless first kisses and long evenings among friends; many of them too busy to notice the forest’s own sinister secrets.

We are so happy to announce our next game. Me and Heidi Meyer want to take you to yet another horror trip and hope you are as excited as we are!

The year is 1888 and the Central News Agency in London has just gotten wind of yet another murder in Whitechapel. The Newsies are working overtime and the police suspect this is just another murder due to gang activity in the area. All the while, a ruthless figure prowls the night, striking fear into the hearts of the destitute all over England with their cruel and merciless killing spree. Since April, multiple souls have been taken in the night. Fearful of what’s to come, the police are finally looking into these murders more thoroughly, hoping, just hoping, they will be able to stop this before more lives are taken…

Not far from Whitechapel hidden in a misty forest and surrounded by rumors, stands one of England’s best kept secrets - Madam Tabram’s. This fine and exclusive establishment caters to the elite, fulfilling their needs for sin and debauchery. At Madam Tabram’s, you can find whatever your heart desires. Yet, as the fog creeps in and the night sets, Madam Tabram’s occupants remain ever so unaware of the shadows prowling the exterior, ready to consume the brothel and all of its unfortunate souls.

Tabram is a horror/burlesque Larp set in the year 1888 in an exclusive brothel named Madam Tabram`s. With strong themes of horror, debauchery and sexuality.

Dear connoisseur of 80s horror,

the lottery is over and emails are sent out. We are so grateful for your interest and support. And because so many of you wanted to accompany us on this adventure, we decided to add two additional player spots. Which was sadly not enough to fit all the people who signed up.

If you did not get a spot or did not sign up in time, we will add you to the waiting list automatically. The sign-up form will also stay open if one of your friends wants to add their name. Since we all know dropouts happen, there is still a chance to receive a spot.

If we don't see you at this larp we are looking forward to seeing you at our next!
