Inside LA’s VR Haunted House
In the days before Halloween, a sprawling, 26,000-square-foot Los Angeles coworking space called Ctrl Collective took on an unexpected twist: It became a virtual reality haunted house dance party.
Approximately 1500 visitors stopped by the haunted house, which included eight room-size horror virtual reality environments and 12 scary virtual reality movies and art installations.
According to Jonathan Nafarrete of VRScout, the organization that put on the event, "The lay of land was five little rooms with different experiences. There are tabletops with Gear VR headsets to check out content on that, a main stage with a DJ spinning in virtual reality, and an artist painting in Tilt Brush next to him with a giant 360-degree dome projecting art on top of it. There’s also a 360-degree photo experience, which is a normal photo booth that puts you in a zombie research facility. Your picture is taken inside a holding pen and is then shared on Facebook as a 360-degree photo."
