This summer, Axis Gallery will once again hold the exhibition "ifーHaunted House without Ghosts, Designing Sensation and Fearー." In general, how do the sensations of "fear," "horror," and "creepiness" come about and how do they expand in the mind? In this haunted house, three designers will explore the different senses of "fear" that varies from person to person, creating a space that will make you shiver unintentionally. Visitors will proceed one by one into the complete darkness, blocking out their sense of sight, which is said to account for 80% of our senses. Last year, they relied on their sense of touch, but this year, their sense of hearing will be their only guide. 
There may be some people who have always shied away from scary things, saying "I hate scary things," "haunted houses are out of the question," or "I've never seen a horror movie," but this is not just an experience that will frighten you. You will get to enjoy an experience that sharpens your senses and stimulates your imagination. Due to the popularity of last year's event, some visitors had to wait for a long time or were unable to enter despite coming to the venue. In light of this, we will be changing to a reservation system. We're looking forward to your visit.
