However, attendees can customize their experience to accommodate their tolerance for scares.Each evening will also feature exclusive screenings of new Peacock projects, including James Wan's upcoming series "Teacup," which is produced through Wan's Atomic Monster production label. This event will be the largest scale example of the ongoing collaboration between Blumhouse and the Stanley Hotel to date.
