The World's Fair Hotel is a real world website set up and hosted by Bandai Namco Entertainment to promote The Dark Pictures Anthology's fourth installment, The Devil in Me.
The site is presented as the official website of the World's Fair Hotel showing its services, sometimes glitching and revealing the true nature of the hotel. The visitor can "reserve" a room which actually offers to buy one of the editions of The Devil in Me. The site also has an archive with a review of The Devil in Me stylized as a 19th century newspaper.
