Pitch-black retreats, where individuals spend several days in complete darkness, have become a new trend among celebrities and tech founders seeking spiritual enlightenment. This experience is intense, as shown by crypto founder Charles Hoskinson's terrifying retreat that led him to leave after just 12 hours due to distressing hallucinations and feelings of panic. Such retreats are designed to foster introspection and self-discovery, though they can lead to extreme psychological responses. Participants are isolated with minimal amenities but may find personal insights amid the profound darkness.
Just 12 hours after entering a pitch-black, 400-square-foot cabin dug into the hillside in southern Oregon, crypto founder Charles Hoskinson fled in terror.
Much wisdom gained, but I need a few days off at the ranch since starring in The Ring wasn't on my 2025 bucket list.
