Haunted Security System

Modern security systems in public buildings and museums rely on the vigilance of police departments or private security services, which can be affected by a plethora of outside factors such as weather. I propose that these systems work in tandem with a back-up system that is contained within the building. At the end of each day, a caretaker or official activates a mechanism that converts the building into a terrifying haunted house. Pedestals and displays containing valuable objects are booby-trapped to transform into gruesome zombies and monsters when touched, and half of the tiles actuate spring-loaded ghouls when stepped on. These traps utilize the Uncanny Valley and other deeply ingrained phobias that effect the majority of the world's population. The end result is a would-be villain who is converted into a cowering wreck, unable to do anything but willingly turn himself in to the authorities.
