THE VAULT OF SOULS, LLC
TAMPA, FLORIDA

The Vault of Souls, LLC is an innovative entertainment company based in Tampa, FL. Founded through the historical venture of The Exchange National Bank, established in 1923 to safeguard the possessions—both worldly and spiritual—of Tampa's elite, it unveiled its paranormal legacy when a basement purgatory for selected individuals was discovered. In recent years, with the revelation of an original client agreement loophole, this unique experience gained new life. Individuals who have lingered within 'The Vault' must now seek redemption by performing collaborative tasks to secure their release. Located in The Franklin Exchange building at 655 North Franklin Street, The Vault of Souls invites guests for an interactive theatrical journey through three immersive areas every Friday and Saturday night in October. This elaborate production unfolds in its paranormal Basement Release Room as well as two atmospheric nightclub lounges: the modern elegance-filled Vault Lounge on the lower floor, and a subdued third-floor spiritualist cocktail lounge. Guided by visionary leaders, The Vault of Souls is directed by Scott Swenson, whose 30-year career spans storytelling across various sectors including a significant stint with SeaWorld Parks and Entertainment. He currently brings to life this groundbreaking concept initially inspired by his work on Busch Gardens Tampa's Howl-O-Scream event. A crucial part of the team is Carolyn Wilson, the President of The Wilson Company and owner of two thoroughbred horse farms. Her multi-disciplinary expertise in religious studies and studio art further enriches her role in advancing cultural support for public art and artists, recognized by Tampa Bay Businesses for Culture & the Arts in 2013. Incorporated on March 28, 2015, under file number L15000057053, The Vault of Souls is a testament to creative storytelling, history, and community involvement.
