Tales Beyond The Tomb: Route 86
Five friends hit the road in search of fun, freedom… and maybe a little trouble. But an unexpected stop takes them to a remote location, where evil doesn’t just lurk in the shadows — it wears human skin.
Inspired by cult trash horror films from the '80s and '90s, Route 86 plunges players into a bloody, nerve-wracking night full of tension, chases, violence, and desperate decisions.
