Skybound Entertainment’s latest VR experiment is set to scare your socks just a little after Halloween.
On Friday, November 2, the company will launch its four-part 360-degree series, Delusion: Lies Within on Samsung’s VR video app. You’ll be able to watch it in a Gear VR headset, or on a browser of your choice. As we reported earlier in the year, the series is based on plays produced by a horror company also named Delusion over the past few years. The experience aimed to involve audiences in new ways to scare them like never before and now it wants to do the same in VR.
The VR version takes us to the American South during the 1940s. It follows two fans trying to find their favorite horror author, who was recently reported missing. It had originally been billed as a 10-part series lasting over an hour overall, though Variety reports that each of the four episodes will last just eight minutes.
Skydance is doing a lot of work in VR and AR right now, also lending out its popular The Walking Dead franchise to phone-based AR games and location-based VR experiences. Elsewhere, the team at Skydance Interactive have been busy building a full VR game in mech battler, Archangel.
The entire series will be available for $4.99. Variety notes that a second season is also possible.
