The spooky season is upon us, and there’s nothing like the immersion of VR to ratchet up the horror. Earlier this month, we updated our Haunted Headsets list, which is jam-packed with VR games to help you celebrate in spine-chilling style. Today, we’re highlighting how to get even more jump scares and holiday treats on the Meta Quest Platform.
BlackBoxTV Presents: Scream Park
In the Venn diagram of horror aficionados and adrenaline junkies, Scream Park hits the sweet spot. And BlackBoxTV is back with four new episodes for Halloween 2022. Starring Grace Van Dien of Stranger Things fame, this thrill-ride horror show will have you defying the laws of physics on the most dangerous quest of your life. Check out the full playlist or dive into the individual episodes:
And now through 11:59 pm PT on October 21, you can go on a terrifying adventure with Scream Park’s Toby Terrific in Meta Horizon Worlds.*
Eli Roth’s Haunted House: Trick-VR-Treat
Written and directed by Eli Roth and presented by Crypt TV together with Meta, Eli Roth’s Haunted House: Trick-VR-Treat is a 30-minute 180-degree VR experience starring Vanessa Hudgens and Will Sasso. You can catch the premiere event October 21 at 6:00 pm PT in Worlds or watch it on-demand on Meta Quest TV. No headset? No problem—you’ll also be able to watch the short film on Facebook and Instagram. Friends can also Watch Together via Messenger and Instagram video calls.

Have a soft spot for Japanese horror? Look no further than Tokyo Case. This two-part 360-degree short film is taking Meta Quest TV by storm. Episode 1 is available now, and Episode 2 launches October 21.
Meta Horizon Worlds Drive-In + Creepy Cabin
Pay a visit to Worlds and you’ll be treated to a Halloween theme. Explore our abandoned drive-in movie theater from days past, but look out for lurking ghosts, treacherous terrain, and a haunted carousel as we stream a collection of monster horror flicks from our friends at Crypt TV. Our creepy cabin is made for 180-degree immersive viewing. As you wander its halls, pick up a candle and stay on the lookout for creepy dolls. Just don’t look in the mirror because you might not like what you see.

A terrifying trip from the shocking imagination of one of today’s biggest horror legends. Rated R for sequences of strong bloody gruesome violence, grisly images involving nudity, sexual content and language.
And the holiday fun extends beyond VR, too. Meta’s Messenger, Instagram, and Creative Shop have teamed up with Universal Pictures to launch a haunting and fun-filled Messenger chat experience—giving horror fans the opportunity to build their own custom Halloween #KillerReels (with a spooky surprise).
After tapping into the Messenger chat experience, fans can enter to win a chance to meet up with the Queen of Scream herself—Jamie Lee Curtis—in a custom world in Meta Horizon Worlds. To enter, upload your scariest #KillerReel to the chat experience and post to Instagram or Facebook.
Fans can access the #KillerReels experience on Messenger or Instagram. To access the #Killer Reels experience, head to the Halloween Movie Facebook Page and click ‘Send Message’ to begin the chat experience. On Instagram, send a DM to @HalloweenMovie to start the experience.
Whether you observe by bobbing for apples, trick-or-treating, or binge watching horror flicks, we hope Meta Quest 2 can help make your holiday a slashing success. Happy Halloween!
