Meta Horizon has announced that on Thursday, May 22, 2025, horror fans will be able to partake in an all-new immersive horror experience, “Blumhouse Horrorverse,” which lets fans step inside a horror movie and embody their favorite villains from iconic Blumhouse and Universal franchises such as “M3GAN” and “The Purge.”
“Blumhouse Horrorverse” is a theme park-like locale set in a dark, foggy forest, with the imposing edifice of the Blumhouse at its center. The woods are the place to roleplay and socialize with your friends and fellow scare addicts, featuring themed activities and elements based on Blumhouse stories as you explore, such as target practice areas based on “The Purge” franchise, a “Wolf Man” mini game, and a screening area for exclusive Blumhouse content.
As you immerse yourself, you’ll discover even more eerie environments throughout the world, inspired by iconic Blumhouse and Universal movies like “M3GAN,” “Wolf Man,” “The Black Phone,” and “Happy Death Day.” But the true terror begins when you enter the Blumhouse itself, where you can take part in the Survival Lockdown game. Anyone can activate the game by throwing the Lockdown lever, and whoever is in the house will find themselves randomly assigned roles: victim or villain. Victims must work together to locate missing keycards and end the lockdown, while the villain, who can embody fan-favorite characters like M3GAN and Babyface, among others, aims to eliminate each survivor before they escape.
Fans can RSVP for the “Blumhouse Horrorverse” world on Meta Horizon. The world will be available on Meta Quest in VR, as well as on the web at https://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.
