Holospark has created The Haunted Graveyard.

Holospark launches The Haunted Graveyard for VR arcades

Holospark set out to create a ghost story set in virtual reality. It started as Séance: The Unquiet, a kind of VR film. But the Seattle company pivoted and decided to make a VR game experience for the emerging VR arcade market.

The Haunted Graveyard will be a scary game, designed for all ages. I saw a demo of the company’s earlier work, and I was struck at how good the developers were at making you feel like you were talking to a character in VR. Now they’re taking the creepy music and character to create a spooky vibe with the game.
