VR Frightfest

The Cross Country Track Of Doom is a gloomy gothic looking virtual cross country course which is based on a nightmare my brother and I once had, this area is nightmare fuel incarnate and is full of all sorts of scary twists and turns. It is made to be like a really frightening maze and is filled with all sorts of horrorifying things. One path leads to the forest of fear- a place inhabited by all sorts of monsters including a few lycanthropes and even an Audrey II plant, the other path leads to the dune of eternal fire which is a sandy beach with a sea of flame that rises and causes mass destruction, you have to be very quick and very brave to make it past this part. Then of course there's the second part of this area which is the Haunted Schoolhouse- a nightmarish looking school full of all sorts of terror such as creepy teachers who go from being nice to you one minute to becoming demonic the next- the school principal and his assistant also do this. Then there's the long, winding staircase that leads to the assembly hall of misery where innocent students are subjected to various horrifying forms of torture which is also the lunch room of the dammed where students are served such disgusting dishes as eye ball soup and the chef who serves them is even scarier than the food. After that there are the various classrooms in which students are turned into monsters and taught how to be evil by the teachers and staff- anyone who joins one of the class will become a monster of some kind themselves. Then there is the hallway, which is home to many evil spirits looking for a host body- the walls sometimes drip blood and sometimes the carpet attacks you. Then there is the Library which looks pretty nice with the exception of the floating books, the portraits with eyes that watch you, the statues that come alive, and the dreaded librarian who turns into a ghoul if you get on her bad side. The only way to protect yourself from all these atrocities is to pick up the Ghostbusters style gear from the staff room. Luckily you have the one and only Bruce Campbell to help you throughout this whole ordeal, he gives you various tools including what he calls the Bruce Cube. A Bruce Cube is a special kind of cube you can use to summon him to help you at anytime- which will come in handy when you have to fight off the deadite staff members in the staff room. It's also kind of like a video game. The next area after the schoolhouse is the old abanded house, now this house is just Disneyland's haunted mansion ride except with the addition of a character named Carol the night hag (she's a parody of The Crypt Keeper from Tales From The Crypt). In this area you can get the Ghostbusters to help you. You get a special phone you can use to call any of your allies in case of emergencies. The playground part of the haunted schoolyard is essentially a Tim Burtonesque zone filled with various grotesque creatures and also has quite a lot of traps. Also this is the way to the Cross Country Track Of Doom. There's stairs you have to climb in order to get to it and unfortunately they aren't any easier than the staircase you had to take to get to the assembly hall. Upon exiting the cross country track of doom you will enter the field of screams which is where all sorts of terrifying creatures roam- including killer bunnies and various creepy crawlies. Once you've completed that you're safe. Then there's the old neighbour stage which is just like like our old neighbourhood except darker and scarier. On the old neighbourhood stage there are various houses including a very grand one that resembles the old house we lived in as kids. The rooms in this house are all very nice except the bedrooms- the bedrooms ALL appear to be haunted. Bedroom number 1 is the parent's bedroom which is a cursed room inhabited by many demons two of which have possesed the parents, bedroom number 2 is just like our old bedroom except it's a lot scarier on the count of the evil shadow beast Gorlon and his friend the cow demon Moocifer. These two creatures often fly in through the window and try to trick you into coming with them to their home- which is a dark, grim looking city area where all sorts of horrible creatures realm and if they refuse they'll use their powers to turn YOU into a creature too. Sometimes they'll send a different kind of creature after you, sometimes it's the dreaded tornado demon and sometimes it's the squicky and just plain creepy King Of Creepy Crawlies. Now the tornado demon spins around destroying everything in his path while the king of creepy crawlings sends swarm after swarm of creepy crawlies after you. The backyard is a jungle where all sorts of nightmarish creatures roam and the only safe place is the clubhouse.The clubhouse is also where you can buy various weapons and gadgets to help you. But even scarier than that is the best friend's house which is also haunted, several rooms are infested with monsters and traps and one of the main rooms is guarded by Tasmin the werecat. There's a tv on in the living room but the only thing that seems to be on is a Goosebumps marathon. The various shopping centres located around the various parts of the neighbourhood have shops that are all broken down for some reason. The old toy shop known as the Entertainer being the most notorious example as all of the toys came alive and have been known to attack people at random. Then there's the really big Roking shopping centre which is kind of like the temple of doom. Avoid the esclators because if you go on them you might fall to your doom. Taking the elevator is fine as long as you don't look down. The big Toys R Us shop is probably the hardest part to get through because it's kind of like a labyrinth.
