Doritos Hotel 626

Doritos Hotel 626 was established in 2008 to promote the brand bringing two intense flavours back from the dead during Halloween. Teenagers were invited to enter Hotel 626 online, and presented with a scary scenario, being trapped in a hotel with the only way out through unpleasant challenges using their webcam, microphone and mobile phone.

Hotel 626 uses several groundbreaking techniques to dial up the experience. Your webcam sneaks a picture of you and shows it to you later, inside the lair of a madman. Your one salvation is a phone call on your actual cell phone with directions on how to get out. To make it scarier, you have to play in the dark. Hotel 626 is only open from 6pm to 6am. Players must maneuver through darkened hallways, a madman’s lair, and sing a demon baby to sleep in order to find their way to safety.
