SAW: Escape Experience – PR Film & Live Stunt

Creative Director

Commissioned by Wonderosity as Creative Director, I led the concept and execution of a high-impact PR film and live citywide stunt to promote SAW: Escape Experience, Lionsgate and The X Co’s immersive horror attraction at Tower Bridge.

We unleashed Jigsaw’s chilling presence across central London. His puppet Billy and a haunting band of Followers appeared in high-traffic locations, London Bridge, Southbank, The Shard, creating eerie, unannounced encounters that stopped passers-by in their tracks.

If you’re building a launch moment, experiential stunt, or IP-led film campaign, let’s build something unforgettable.

The Activation

This was a multi-platform pre-launch campaign built for shareability and shock value. Live actors, cinematic framing, and location-specific interactions pulled real Londoners into the SAW universe, blurring the line between horror film and real life.

The final PR film blended candid public reactions with scripted moments, driving digital engagement while seeding dread for what awaited inside the attraction.
