Until Dawn Wiki

This?! This is like a whole 'nother hotel, I had no idea this was here.
 
Chris

The Blackwood Pines Hotel is an old and an abandoned hotel that closed its doors in the nineties.

History[]

In the twentieth century, the Blackwood Pines Hotel operated in conjunction with the adjoining Sanatorium to provide visitors' relaxation and rejuvenation. After many decades, the establishment ceased operation and was shuttered. The structure was razed down to its lowermost levels, but not completely demolished. The Washington Lodge was, at least partially, built on top of the original foundation.

Until Dawn Spoilers

The former, dilapidated structure still sits on the mountain. At some point during his family's many vacations at Blackwood Pines, Josh learned about the existence of the old hotel beneath the lodge, but never told his friends about it. After the disappearance of his sisters Hannah and Beth, he hatched a plan of revenge to humiliate his friends whom he blamed for the tragic event, and turned the remains of the hotel into his base of operations. He restored power; set up lights, cameras and monitoring equipment; and rigged various elaborate machines. In the kitchen and freezer of the former hotel restaurant, he hung up several pig carcasses and props. He likely came across old hotel records and learned about former employee Victor Milgram; Josh would use Milgram's information to create a convincing backstory for his alter ego the Psycho

Events of Until Dawn[]

In Chapter 1, Chris can see a poster of the hotel in the Cable Car Station.

The hotel can make its first physical appearance in Chapter 5 if Sam escapes from the Psycho. If she's captured before making it past the basement, then its first appearance is later in Chapter 6, when it was discovered by Ashley and Chris while they search for Sam.

If Sam successfully evades her pursuer, she'll emerge in the Psycho's workshop; if not, she'll come to in his camera room located in the hotel. Mike encounters the hotel when returning from the Sanatorium via a tunnel, and finds Sam. Together, they both find Ashley and Chris tied up by the Psycho, who reveals himself to be Josh.

Later, the room with Josh's monitors becomes a safe room for the remaining survivors where they make plans to defend against the Wendigos.

The Hotel[]

HotelLobby

The hotel restaurant.

The old hotel can be accessed using a tunnel from the Sanatorium, or by using a door in the lodge's laundry room.

From the door is a long hallway which leads to an intersection with an elevator straight ahead, or a hallway to the left. A set of stairs can be found to the right leading to the lobby, which could not be accessed by the player. The room after the elevator is also unable to be accessed by the player but is accessed by Sam offscreen.

Information about the hotel in the Press Kit edition of the game.

Proceeding to the hallway on the left, and a path straight ahead is heavily blocked off by junk, forcing the player to turn left into a room. Straight ahead of the room are stairs leading down to a lower floor of the hotel.

After several corridors and turns is a huge room, the former restaurant or "lobby" in-game. A locked door is found, possibly to stairs leading to the upper floor. Further along the restaurant is a door leading to a room with a projector, which plays events from last year

The exit of the restaurant leads to a corridor, to a door which is hard to open. Inside the door is a box that controls the temperature. To the right of the door is another small hallway bordering the Psycho's workshop, which could be viewed between some planks.

Both the door and the hallway leads to a large corridor, with double doors to a room where Sam is kept if she was caught. Past the room is a hallway with the front blocked by junk, the door on the left leading to a room where supposedly the tunnel to the Sanatorium is, and the door to the right leading to a massive room where the saw trap is located.

In the room, there is a doorway to a room with the Psycho's screen monitors divided with a cage style wall with a door. Past the cage wall is a door leading to hallways, leading to the corridor with double doors, or the Psycho's workshop. In the Psycho's workshop is a vent which somehow leads to the elevator to the upper floor.
