This Fall, brace yourself for an eerie adventure that bridges the supernatural with reality. The Boy Who Steals Flowers, an Alternate Reality Game (ARG), introduces a ghostly tale from the 1940s centered around a boy whose spirit returns every autumn to deliver an unusual gift — and a chilling ultimatum.
The story begins with an orphan who tragically lost his life during a game of hide and seek. In his final moments, he clung to flowers meant for the other children, a poignant symbol of the family he never had. Now, his spirit wanders, leaving mysterious bouquets of chrysanthemums on doorsteps each fall, a twisted attempt at finding a “forever home.”
But beware! If you receive the bouquet, you have only 13 hours to pass it on to someone else, or he’ll return to play a sinister game of hide and seek that never ends.
Breaking the curse isn’t easy; only by reciting a poem and surrounding yourself in a protective circle of flower petals can you hope to escape his relentless search. The only way to find the poem is to seek out what really happened to the boy…

Dare to accept the bouquet. But whatever you do, don’t keep it.
