The LEGO Hidden Side Newbury Haunted High School set offers a hybrid play experience combining physical LEGO building with augmented reality through a companion app. Designed for ages 9+, this 1,474-piece set includes 8 minifigures: ghost hunters Jack Davids and Parker L. Jackson with smartphone accessories, plus Spencer the ghost dog.
When assembled, the haunted school measures 11" (30cm) high, 16" (43cm) wide, and 10" (26cm) deep, featuring detailed interiors for imaginative play. The set functions as a standalone build but unlocks additional ghost-hunting gameplay when paired with the free app (requires compatible iOS/Android device, not included). No device is needed for traditional LEGO play.
This educational toy develops problem-solving skills through construction while integrating technology for an interactive experience. The set provides multiple play options: physical building, digital AR adventures, or a combination of both.
Things to Keep in MindThe primary drawback noted by users is the discontinuation of the associated augmented reality (AR) app, which was integral to the toy's intended interactive play and previously had device compatibility limitations. Why You'll Like ItThe building kit offers an engaging and challenging construction experience with movable parts, providing an enjoyable physical play aspect for many children.
