Become a Junior Monster Hunter with the Van Helsing Society

At Audacious Immersive’s Monster Hunter Camp in Denver, kids don’t just attend summer camp—they step into a fantastical world. Campers join the Van Helsing Society, a conservation-minded organization of mythological naturalists devoted to studying and protecting legendary creatures from folklore around the globe.

Through role-play, story-driven missions, and daily quests, recruits follow clues, solve puzzles and riddles, make teamwork-based choices, and meet in-world characters who need help.

What Makes This Camp Different?

• Compassion-led monster hunting. Kids learn that “monster hunter” doesn’t mean fear or violence—it means approaching the unknown with empathy, curiosity, and care.

• Folklore as a doorway to understanding. Missions introduce legendary creatures from cultures around the world, inviting respect, wonder, and thoughtful questions.

• Choices matter—and teamwork matters more. Recruits solve mysteries, decode clues, and navigate dilemmas together, practicing collaboration, communication, and kind leadership.

• An immersive setting inside the Van Helsing Society Headquarters. Campers adventure in a richly themed indoor space designed by theatre professionals, setting the stage for every mission and discovery.

The Power of Play

Every activity is designed to spark imagination and build real-world skills through fun, laughter, and experimentation.
