Creating an immersive environment in horror larps can be a delicate thing. In "It is safe to fear" we explore some of the things that make it possible to experience fear in a larp setting and find out some ways to build and support a safe space to experience such strong emotions.

Valtteri Niskavaara has decades of experience in organizing horror larps (among others) and in this program he shares some of the observations and practices he has learned during his years of invoking fear amongst his players (in a fun and safe way).
