It’s for you…

You can find fortune-telling machines in the neon-lit corners of arcades. Amongst the sounds of clattering tokens and cheering children, they whisper fates to those who dare to drop a coin. It’s just a game… right?But there is a fortune-telling machine that whispers fortunes from your darkest nightmares.

Built out of a 1920s field telephone, weathered by the passage of untold horrors, the machine features the decapitated fingers of palm readers collected by a serial killer throughout the 20th century.

Why was the machine built?

What is its purpose?

Do you dare hear what waits in store for you?

It has appeared at the Gloucester Guildhall, the caller says it’s for you…
