In times of closed borders and walls, prejudice and exclusion, The “Bat Cave” presents itself as an abomination of everything we hold familiar and sacred. It envelops you in its universe of degenerates, hurtling you into its own crazy world!

Creatures from the darkness - intimidating gargoyles, vampire bats, sneaky snakes, leering wolves, aliens, unworldly characters - confront as they squirm and slither by you to delve in deeper into its belly.

As you get intimate with this little nook, trauma turns to psychedelia when you realise these creatures are just themselves and harmless and you become friends for life - all it takes is the first step in.
