Universal Orlando has joined forces with Universal Creative and VRstudios to develop THE REPOSITORY at Universal Orlando, a first-of-its-kind sphere of psychological horror and investigational journey that’s a unsettling combination of fear and Virtual Reality.
THE REPOSITORY at Universal Orlando, lasts for 30 minutes, but only 10 minutes actually takes place in VR where you will explore a physical warehouse crammed full of supernatural objects while interacting with real-life characters to solve a mystery and gain access to a spectral void. At that point, you’ll put on a special VR headset to explore a ghostly dimension, traveling into the netherworld using VR to fight off a supernatural enemy.
“Once you enter the Dark Portal, you come in contact with the dark entities — creatures that live in the paranormal,” T.J Mannarino, Universal Orlando’s senior director of entertainment, art and design told Digital Trends. “This experience is something that we could not do in the real world.”
With a team of investigators, enter an ancient, old warehouse where mystifying artifacts have been collected and stored for hundreds of years.
Sophisticated supernatural and paranormal devices are being tested using state-of-the-art technologies to determine the power these relics hold. You make your way through multiple rooms and find yourselves transported to various worlds in this personalized, mind-bending experience.
To pull that last part off, Universal Orlando will break each team of four people into pairs and lead them to massive 18-foot by 18-foot stages. They’ll be able to walk around to explore the netherworld and interact with the rest of the team virtually. The entire experience is designed to keep you on the stage naturally, but there’s also a physical barrier and employees in the room just in case.
THE REPOSITORY at Universal Orlando, is available on select nights from September 29 through October 31. It costs $50 on top of the regular Halloween Horror Nights entry fee, which can range from $67 to $105. Reservation times are available between 5:00pm and 1:00am.
