“Under The Castle” (UTC) is an original IP co-created by Got7’s Jakson Wang (aka “P’Jack” to Thai fans) and Team Wang CEO Henry Cheung.
Centred around the fantastical tales of two protagonists Pumpkie and Spookie, UTC blends art, fantasy and storytelling to build an imaginative and mysterious universe. It now comes to life at Emsphere in time for Halloween.
Following its debut in Shanghai in 2023 and a 2024 run in Singapore, Thailand is the third stop of UTC, inviting visitors of all ages to step inside the castle and discover a world beyond the ordinary.
The UTC experience starts with the signature haunted house, which has been completely reimagined for Bangkok. Inspired by the brand-new comic book, every room recreates a pivotal scene of the unfolding story. Guests are guided by Pumpkie and Spookie through eerie corridors, where they unlock secrets and step directly into the fantasy universe.
After surviving the haunted house, explore collectables and delights at the gift shop and the mini bar. Take home exclusive merchandise, ranging from limited-edition apparel and character lifestyle goods to themed accessories designed to transport the fantasy home. UTC narrative serves as the inspiration for drinks at the mini bar. From glowing cocktails inspired by the enchanted castle to playful mocktails that nod to Pumpkie and Spookie’s mischievous personalities.
Next, Pumpkie and Spookie invite guests onto the Mischief Ride, a bumper car zone designed for laughter and chaos. To preserve the memories, UTC-themed photo booths are scattered throughout the venue, offering guests a whimsical keepsake of their visit.
At the main entrance of Emsphere, the night market transforms the ground floor into a lively affair. Expect sizzling Thai specialities and international favourites. “Under The Castle” runs until Nov 2 at Emsphere.
The haunted house operates at different times, depending on the day. Get your tickets and check the timetable with TicketMelon. Visitors must be above the age of 16 to enter.
