Horror fanatics, get ready! Even though Halloween is still a few long months away, spooky season is officially kicking off early in the metaverse. Blumhouse has unleashed their terrifying “Horrorverse” onto Meta Horizon, and it’s available NOW! This isn’t just a taste of terror; it’s a fully immersive horror experience. It will transport you directly into the heart-pounding worlds of your favorite Blumhouse franchises.
The “Horrorverse” is available now to experience together in Meta Horizon on Meta Quest, at horizon.meta.com, and via the Meta Horizon mobile app. So, whether you’re a horror fan with a headset or not, you can still have access to participate in the fun!
Step Inside Your Favorite Blumhouse Nightmares!
Imagine stepping into a nightmarish theme park, and that’s essentially what Blumhouse Horrorverse in Meta Horizon promises to be. Picture a dark and foreboding forest, shrouded in fog, the imposing and iconic Blumhouse mansion looming at its center. This eerie woodland isn’t just for show; it’s a place where you can roleplay and socialize with your fellow scare addicts.
Set in this spine-chilling forest, the “Horrorverse“ leans heavily into roleplay and community. It’s the perfect place to socialize and meet fellow scare enthusiasts while exploring haunting activities and elements of Blumhouse stories. You can encounter activities and interactive elements inspired by beloved Blumhouse stories as you bravely explore its shadowy depths. Think target practice areas ripped straight from the chaotic world of The Purge franchise, a hair-raising Wolf Man minigame. There’s also a dedicated screening area. There, you can watch exclusive Blumhouse content that will keep you on the edge of your virtual seat.
The horror-themed social experience lets fans step inside a horror movie and embody iconic villains from franchises made famous by Universal Pictures and the horror masters at Blumhouse. That includes M3GAN, The Purge, Wolf Man, The Black Phone, and more. The world offers rich and immersive social experiences, with numerous ways to connect, play, share, and express oneself. Fans can immerse themselves in the fear or become someone else’s worst nightmare by accessing the world.
The Ultimate Test: Survival Lockdown!
But the terror doesn’t stop there. As you delve deeper into this immersive world, you’ll uncover even more chilling environments meticulously inspired by movies. That includes the terrifyingly intelligent AI M3GAN, The Wolf Man. Plus, you can enter The Black Phone, whose sequel, The Black Phone 2, has just unveiled its trailer.
However, the test of your courage begins when you dare to enter the infamous Blumhouse mansion itself. There you can participate in the adrenaline-pumping “Survival Lockdown” game! Anyone within the virtual mansion can trigger the game by throwing the ominous Lockdown lever. Once activated, everyone inside will be randomly assigned a role: a desperate victim or a relentless villain. Victims must band together, their hearts pounding in their virtual chests. They’re on a mission to locate missing keycards scattered throughout the house. Meanwhile, the villain will focus on eliminating every survivor before they can manage to escape the clutches of Blumhouse.
