The Celluloid Cathedral materialized when the last surviving reels of countless forgotten B-movies merged together, creating a sacred sanctuary where the spirits of exploitation cinema could finally find eternal rest. This holy grindhouse space exists simultaneously across all Horror Hall of Fame venues, manifesting wherever true B-movie devotion reaches its peak.
The Cathedral appears as a towering structure built from thousands of interwoven film strips that shimmer with projected B-movie scenes. Its stained glass windows depict each of the 20 Horror Hall of Fame archetypes in vivid vintage poster art style. The interior contains rows of vintage drive-in theater speakers arranged like church pews, constantly whispering fragments of classic grindhouse dialogue. The entire structure pulses with the collective energy of every B-movie ever filmed, emanating an otherworldly glow that can be seen from any Horror Hall of Fame venue.
The Cathedral serves as the spiritual anchor that maintains authentic grindhouse atmosphere across all Horror Hall of Fame venues, ensuring every league experience remains true to exploitation cinema principles. It validates and empowers players who demonstrate genuine commitment to their chosen horror archetypes.
